Singer Davido hints at granting custody of daughter, Imade to Babymama amid legal dispute

The Nigerian Afrobeat Star, David Adeleke, professionally known as Davido, has indicated his intention to grant custody of his first child, Imade Adeleke, to her mother Sophia Momodu.

This is coming in response to a recent counter-affidavit filed by Momodu, where she contends that Davido’s home is an unsafe environment for a young girl, referencing the tragic passing away of Davido’s son, Ifeanyi, in 2022 as evidence of her claim.

In a now viral document on social media, Momodu’s claim reads:

“The applicant cannot take proper care of our daughter because he lives a controversial lifestyle (negative media attention) that will expose our daughter to more negative trauma at her tender age.

“The applicant in his role as an artiste always travels and allows many unsavoury male adults around him and his house, who will not be a good influence on an impressionable young female child, like our daughter.

“The applicant disagreed with child therapy as the applicant has been estranged from our daughter for a while and safely and sustainably establishing a meaningful presence in our daughter’s life is paramount.

“The applicant is married to another woman, and they live together. The proper upbringing of our daughter by another cannot be guaranteed.

“The fact that the applicant lost his son in his house in rather unfortunate and questionable circumstances shows that our daughter cannot be placed in the custody of the applicant.”

However, Davido reacted via series of tweets he shared on his X page.

It reads: “Your constantly bringing up the death of my child at any point u can to just remind us of this tragedy that haunts us everyday of our lives .. Imade will grow up to see I fought for her .. as for now u can have her .. P.S she won’t be a child forever .. enjoy ❤️ Imade Aurora Adeleke ! Your father loves you!”

In another tweet he wrote: “All I asked for was ‘joint custody’ but cus it’s davido yall wanna act like yall can’t read! SMH I’m off this … yall be blessed and I pray this never happens to you.”

Also while replying to an X user, #kill4Lizz, who wrote: “Don’t use your deceased child to play victim! She raised a safety concern! Which is very very valid. She is fighting for her child!”, Davido wrote: “Make she keep am.” [CONTINUE READING HERE]>>>>
