Laycon’s mum has taken to social media to appreciate supporters of Laycon and Icon in general.

The video of his mum which featured her speaking Yoruba is then interpreted to English.

According to her, she’s very grateful to all Icons and she thanked them for not deserting Laycon, especially this time that he needs them most.

She further advised Laycon not to think or brood in the house. Assuring him that things will be fine and he will come out strong with his Grand Prize.

She concluded her words with some prayers for both Laycon and his supporters.

According to her, Laycon left home with her blessings and will return home to take good care of her, just as he desires.

She said,

“Icons, I’m grateful. You all are blessed. Thank you for not deserting Laycon. Laycon is blessed.

He is already blessed. Laycon, please don’t think too much. Don’t brood in the house. You are the owner of the N85 million.”

At the beginning of her video, she referred to herself as ‘mama Icon’ as a sign of pledging her solidarity to Icons.

Isn’t that a wonderful one, a mother’s support for her son and his fans across the globe.
