As star artiste, Davido, seemingly hits a roadblock in an attempt to gain the custody of her daughter with estranged baby mama, Imade, he has sought solace in the fact that the girl will soon grow up to embrace her father.
He had earlier initiated a legal action but Imade too has fought back, giving her own reasons the daughter cannot be in his custody.
Among others, Imade cited the case of the death of Davido’s son with Chioma – Ifeanyi – arguing that the circumstances were controversial.
In response, Davido has now averred on X: “Your constantly bringing up the death of my child at any point you 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, you can have her. P.S: she won’t be a child forever .. enjoy, Imade Aurora Adeleke ! Your father loves you!
“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.”
In Sophia’s affidavit, she alleged: “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 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.
