Nigerian singing sensation, Tiwa Savage has lost her father to the cold hands of death — the singer gave the tragic update on her Instagram page earlier this evening.

According to the mother of one, her father passed away in the early hours of Monday morning and though she’s currently grieving, she’s glad that he’s finally resting now.

She wrote on her page,

Early hours of this morning you made a peaceful transition. You fought till the very end, you really fought daddy, it’s been rough for you these past couple years but you are resting now. This is tough on me, I’m so numb, so weak.
Rest In Perfect Peace my King
I love you daddy. Savy t’eko, pappin K
