Fondly known as Mama Burna across the Nigerian music industry, Bose shared an emotional post on Instagram on Monday, where she uploaded a series of throwback photographs from her wedding day, early marital years, and more recent family moments.
In her heartfelt caption, she described her marital experience as a “roller coaster ride” and expressed gratitude for the family she and her husband have built together.

“Thanking God for 35 years since we each said ‘I do’ & ‘till death do us part’. Thanking God for the journey, the roller coaster ride & the joy of watching the 3 musketeers we have been appointed caretakers of. Happy Anniversary to us.”
Bose and Samuel are proud parents of three children — Damini Ogulu, better known as Burna Boy; Nissi Ogulu, a singer and mechanical engineer; and Ronami Ogulu, a creative entrepreneur in the fashion space.
