You can’t force me to marry your
marijuana smoking cousin – Davido Blasts Dele Momodu
I am 23 and you are almost 60. Your cousin has a baby for
me. Rather than bring us together as a family, you wished for glowing embers to
come out of cool cucumber. This is why you instructed your lawyers to put
garbage on the internet in a matter that should be showcased in the court of law’
In May, the same month Imade was born, Sophia settled in her
fancy apartment for which I paid a hefty bill for a 2 year lease. Her baby was
healthy. And she seemed happy. I would take care of all the financial needs of
Imade and still pay Sophia a living allowance of N300,000 plus utility bills.
Within a matter of weeks, Sophia missing and lusting for the
streets of Lagos, especially the glitzy night life. She often left Imade home
for clubbing, binge drinking and a life of debauchery and deviant living. She
would sleep all day and party all night. When awake, she was addicted to the
telephone and cannabis. She paid the baby no attention at all and seems to
despise motherhood and parenting.
Imade was in her custody for two straight months,
unchallenged and uninterrupted, until the baby took badly and severely ill in
July. Imade cried, ceaselessly, for 48 hours. She was rushed to the hospital
where her condition confounded medical experts. Several tests were conducted on
her and later on the mother. Medical reports, herein attached, proved that
Sophia’s blood was polluted to the maximum level with cannabis and she had by
the process of breast feeding infected her child with complicated medical
conditions associated with the use of alcohol and especially cannabis.
The trouble spot for Imade was her lungs. She had difficulty
breathing largely because of the contaminated breast milk and the severity of
the “Second Smoke” of marijuana inhaled by the poor child.
The medical experts at the hospital were enraged by the
callous treatment of Imade by her own mother and declared her unfit for the
caring and the nursing of a delicate baby. The team determined that they would
hand over the baby to the Children’s Welfare Authority of Lagos State
Government. My family started to plead with the hospital management. For the
first time, Sophia too was sober, sorry and contrite. We pleaded that the baby
would be kept from the mother once she was returned to us, and that we would
take over responsibilities for Imade’s welfare.
Voluntarily, Sophia, in the attempt to avoid the handing
over of the baby to the children welfare authority, agreed to a compromise
position that she would transfer Imade to the Adeleke family until the cannabis
in the systems of both mum and daughter was completely out and comprehensively
cleaned out.
The medical expert also indicated that the full damage to
Imade’s person could not be ascertained right away and that her mental state
now or in the future could not be determined nor predicted, until perhaps when
she would have attained adulthood. This was why and how Imade was transferred
to the custody of the Adeleke family.
Meanwhile, Imade was increasingly worse off in wellness and
she had to be flown to the American hospital in Dubai. I wrote a letter of release
authorizing my sister to travel to Dubai with Imade. The hospital saved Imade
who was returned to Nigeria with a medical equipment that had to be used daily
to enable Imade to gain restful sleep and balanced respiratory rhythm. The
photograph of this equipment is hereby attached.
If Imade had not gone to Dubai, it is fair to say that she
may not be alive today. Still, some people prevented her from keeping a
follow-up appointment at the American Hospital in Dubai. For the silliest
possible reason. My family would not pay for Sophia’s flight ticket and thus
Imade would be disallowed from traveling for the vital purpose of medical
conditions that lend oxygen to her life.
The claim has been made that the aborted trip to Dubia was
to take Imade to America. This is not true. Imade’s Nigerian passport is right
now with the Immigration Office with no American Visa embossed on it and Imade,
though qualified to possess an American Passport because her dad is an American
citizen, still does not possess an American passport. True, her passport is
being processed but the truancy of her mother has caused a major delay. I
therefore ask, how will Imade have entered America without a visa on her
Nigerian passport?
The only reason why some of us are dancing naked in the
market place today, is because Sophia’s request to go to Dubai on my ticket was
declined. She is demanding for her new car and a raise of her allowance to one
million naira per month. The sole reason why she’s demanding for the custody of
Imade is to justify the necessity for this delusional one million naira. A
domestic matter that could have been quietly and sensibly settled has been
tossed to the public domain with the brutal consequences to the most innocent
actor in this drama, Imade.
From December 23-28, Sophia lived at my father’s Lekki
residence in peace, except for the first one hour when a medication was
misapplied by her and Imade speedily vomited for a fearfully long time. Sophia
did not know how to even bathe her own baby. She brought a friend to stay with
her in a 3-bedroom flat with a resident professional nurse and nanny. Overall,
her stay was joyful and in alignment with the thrills of the Christmas holiday
season.
On December 29, less than 24 hours of leaving my father’s
house, Sophia was at the airport in the company of her uncle and his wife with
malice aforethought and the aim to do maximum damage that would obstruct her
child from travelling aboard to receive necessary and needful medical care. She
was welcome to join us if she had bought her ticket or her uncle had funded her
for the trip.
I offered to buy her a car and suggested a Toyota brand or
Hyundai. She lost her cool and told me off. She wanted a fancy jeep and
preferably, a Mercedes Benz Jeep. I laughed because she just wanted to be a
Lagos Big Girl for nothing. She hardly can cope with the cheapest car much less
the ruinous cost of maintaining a Mercedes Benz vehicle. In December she
received 500,000 naira as her allowance without doing anything for Imade. Life
is not a bed of roses. Neither have I ever promised Sophia a rose garden. Her
spontaneous motions of delusions utterly baffle me!
On her twitter page, she claimed she has recovered Imade
from captivity. But Imade never was in captivity. Sophia certainly knows where
Imade is. And it is where she left her on December 28, at my father’s house.
What is the lie about? Sophia also claimed that she hasn’t seen her daughter in
5 months, this cannot be true. Sophie spent every Sunday with her baby at my
father’s house since July 2015 when she voluntarily transferred Imade to the
Adeleke family after the cannabis incidence. She and her daughter constantly
appear on her face book and twitter pages throughout this period of 5 months.
What manner of unreliable and lying person is Sophia? The picture of your
reconciliation with Imade after “captivity” that you posted on your twitter
page came directly from the photo shoot that you posed for at my father’s house
during your Christmas stay. Why can’t you ever be affable with truth nor have a
relationship with honour?
Uncle Dele Momodu was the first to bring this domestic
matter online and onto the internet. Uncle Dele Momodu ran smack into the
internet highway on December 30 with Video recordings that he dishonestly,
immorally and unlawfully recorded at a government facility and office at the
Murtala Mohammed International Airport, Lagos. Uncle, you are wrong and you are
not doing the right thing.
Life is beautiful if we all live in simple ways and do not
engage criminal gadgets to replace integrity and honour. Your recordings cannot
alter the fact that I am “Davido” father of Imade and it cannot force me to be
the husband of your cousin. In truth, I don’t know if you are uncle or cousin
to Sophia. Still, Uncle Dele Momodu, it is immoral, unlawful and unethical to
clandestinely record anyone, especially friends and family members.
Late evening on December 30, I responded to your vicious
internet publications that attacked me and my family. But my father’s counsel
and the love I have for Imade prompted me to recall the arrow aimed at you. You
see, my father raised me well, and I promptly complied with his advise. I thus
deleted all references to the issue of December 29 at the Airport and
apologized to you in particular along with all my fans. I showed you respect
even if you had provoked me.
Instead of reciprocating with love and elderly wisdom, you
sustained your attack of me with even more venom and hatefulness. With all due
respect for my dad, I am compelled to speak to your lies and your simulation of
grand self-importance. I am 23 and you are almost 60. Your cousin has a baby for
me. Rather than bring us together as a family, you wished for glowing embers to
come out of cool cucumber. This is why you instructed your lawyers to put
garbage on the internet in a matter that should be showcased in the court of
law. Uncle, who offended you? Is it Davido, Sophia or Imade? It cannot be my
late mum after whom I named Imade. Is it my gentle dad?
I am 23 and a performing artiste that God immensely blessed
and I have joyfully made good in the industry. I won’t do this forever, and I
shall timely step aside in the nearest future. I have a degree and I am
stashing my monies aside so that I can build a decent future for Imade plus my
future wife and family. I believe as the bible says, ‘every good gift is from
above.’
