Broadcaster and veteran Nollywood actor, Patrick Doyle, has shared the news about the loss of his newborn daughter, a few hours after celebrating her birth.

Doyle revealed the disheartening news in a post on his Facebook page, saying his baby, Omayinuwa Mayen Harriet Doyle, died on Saturday, April 11, shortly after she was born on Friday, April 10.

He wrote, “Omayinuwa visited us briefly at about 10:40 am on Friday 10th April and returned to heaven on Saturday, 11th of April at about 4:15 pm. Her stay was short but it brought great joy with it. We would wished for a longer stay, but alas heaven thought otherwise. This much we know though, God still rules in the affairs of men. Our faith in the goodness of God remains resolute regardless. Sibe’ sibe’ Oluwa n’be’. It is well with our soul. “
