Sophia Momodu Reveals Details on Child Support and Co-Parenting with Davido, Addresses False Claims About Daughter Imade
Sophia Momodu, the first baby mama of Afrobeats superstar Davido, has spoken out against a wave of online posts targeting her daughter, Imade Adeleke, describing them as deliberate attempts to spread falsehoods about the 10-year-old’s well-being.
In a lengthy Snapchat post on Sunday, Sophia dismissed claims that she has ever denied Imade access to her father. According to her, the child’s safety and a structured schedule have always guided her decisions.
“It’s important to note that my daughter is a happy, healthy, and well rounded child. Anyone who has met her in person can attest to this,” she wrote.
Sophia further disclosed that she has been Imade’s primary caregiver for the past five years, bearing almost all her expenses. The only exception, she said, is school fees, which Davido’s father, Dr. Adedeji Adeleke, has taken care of for the past three years.
She added that she has never received formal child support from Davido, but insisted that Imade has never lacked anything.
“I have not received child support from her father, but our child knows no lack. She is growing in a healthy environment and is very happy,” she said.
In a surprising revelation, Sophia announced that she recently waived all outstanding child support payments and relinquished any future claims, choosing to take on full financial responsibility.
“In an effort to reaffirm my commitment to her happiness, I recently waived all outstanding child support payments and relinquished future claims. This decision has left me fully responsible for our child’s financial needs, which is a welcomed development by both parties,” she stated.
Emphasising the importance of family bonds, Sophia stressed that she has never prevented Imade from having a relationship with Davido.
“I have never denied her father access or a relationship. Instead, I prioritize her safety and structured schedules,” she added.
She appealed to the public to stop dragging her daughter into online controversies.
“Moving forward, I kindly request that my innocent child be left out of false narratives and stories. Let’s channel our energy towards things that are more profitable and healthy.”
As of the time of this report, Davido has not issued any public response to Sophia’s post. Read More
