My story is similar to yours. With no mom around and wicked step mom. His songs was one of the reasons I and my siblings did not give up. Today, even my children cannot comprehend the suffering because GOD has blessed me. He (God) has made me Ephraim . To him be praise. Some people live over a hundred years, yet they are forgotten as soon as they die. Even their first generation do not remember them. But some like Chris ID who died young will live forever.
You just reminded me what I've been trying so hard to forget your story matches mine just that mine, I was alone in it😢 no siblings just me and my maker
The months of June, July, and August 1998 are unforgettable historical months in Nigeria as they saw the passing away of people in the limelight such as Christopher Idahosa (Chris ID), Benson Idahosa, Sanni Abacha, and Moshood Kashimawo Olawole Abiola (MKO). But I missed Chris ID more for his inspirational and soul-stirring songs. But death was unfair to him by cutting his life short at 27 years, barely three months after the release of his last album with the famous track of "Ariobosa" that is first played as you listen to this non-stop audo compilation. Chris, you are gone for a while but there is hope for you as God will surely remember you in the resurrection of the dead when His kingdom comes to take over the earth that you sang about. We hope and pray God remembers you and others with similar faith as yours into a world where loved ones will never have to part again and death will be no more, and when God's will be done on earth as it is in heaven. - Matt. 6:9,10; Rev. 21:3 - 5. Addio till then, Brother.

When I am around the neighbourhood I still drive pass your home RIP

I remember last week i went to see my mom, this song was playing I and my mom were crying uncontrollably. 2020. RIP sir ID I will be very happy to see him in heaven
When I was a little girl....my favourite song and artist back then. I knew all his song. I remember when I'm going to extra school lessons in the morning. The backyards that I pass then use to play the songs. They always make my morning.
Each time I remember you I felt a heart break, it looks as if it was yesterday that you left us; many ppl said that u are dead , but to me you are still alive because your songs have thought me a lot in life. Keep on resting the real man among men Christopher Idahosa Aka the Rega Messiah.
I can still remember on that faithful day when the news came that Chris ID is gone was in my Secondary Sch days I remember I cried so much cos his music has made great impact on me. Chris was a musician with a difference, vision that’s beyond this world. Right there in Uwa Primary school where the burial ceremony took place truly we knew an icon had gone.
36:44 I remember when my father used to play that track when I was a child I love it so much especially when my dad sing it it touches me and I will be looking at my father's mouth when he is singing
I love all your songs I'm so sad😔 to say Rip I play your songs cos it makes me feel happy always Rip once again SIR CHRIS ID De Reggae Messiah Still watching in 2017-2018
How can someone dislike this , it makes me wonder this is why the world can never live in unity because there are too many enemies of progress and haters everywhere
I remember this year when a lot of great Bini sons in the like Chris Id and Archbishop Benson Idahosa passed to glory. It was indeed a gloomy year for all Edos. RIP great ones ❤
I'm here 2024🇳🇬🇳🇬 still listening to this masterpiece. I was a child when he passed but his songs have stayed alive and memorable in my heart till today. Continue to rest in peace Chris ID
A very talented man with a beautiful soul Beautiful song, beautiful lyrics, beautiful message,I just hope my people listening and shaping our Benin city. He died too soon why do good people so early,GOD why.
Chris rest in peace, not a bini person but was born and grew up in Benin and was in Benin when he died he had a great impact on our lives, and would never forget him. Rest in peace Chris Id
MR,CHRIS ID. U have gone so long but your legacy you left behind will not be forgotten our prayers for you may our heavenly father keep you in his bosom may your soul rest in peace
Every green song in my heart, and everything said here is still happening till this days, you are still and the best bini christian musician that Edo has produced.... No one has ever take your place....I remembered then I was still secondary school then when you sang the song, not am in my forties.... My God grant you a beautiful place in his throne.
