‘Imade Will Grow Up To See I Fought For Her’ – Davido Says after Momodu’s Reference To Ifeanyi’s Death

Davido says his daughter, Imade will grow up to see that he fought for her after Momodu’s reference to Ifeanyi’s death.

Glamtush reports that award-winning artiste, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has hinted at his intention to leave his first child, Imade, in custody of her mother, Sophia Momodu.

This follows a recent counter-affidavit filed by Momodu, claiming that Davido is unfit to raise their daughter.

In her response, she alleged that his home is an unsafe environment for a young girl, referencing the tragic death of Davido’s son, Ifeanyi, in 2022 as evidence of her claim.

The document, which is now circulating on social media, read in part, “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.”

Responding to the lawsuit, Momodu released a statement, claiming that since they ended their relationship in July 2022, Davido had refused to contact their child or provide emotional and financial support to her.

She added that Davido had not seen Imade since July 2022 by his own choice, insisting that she had never denied him the opportunity to see his daughter.
