The father who abandoned his three
kids in a boarding school, Solid Rock
Model College in Abule-Iroko, Ogun
State, for eight years, Mr Segun
Adepegba, has finally come out to
state his reasons for taking the action
her took and why he had to leave his
children in the hands of strangers for
so long.

The distraught Adepegba who
responded to the story carried by
Punch Newspaper, said hardship and
his inability to take care of the kids
after their mother left him, led to his
abandoning the three children and
promised to visit the school and pick
up his responsibilities.

In a telephone interview with the
paper, Adepegba recounted his ordeal,
stating that life has been tough for
him and he had no job or house for
him to give the children the parental
love they needed at the time.
In 2007, my wife and I had a
misunderstanding and she told me she
was leaving me. I was frustrated and
the children were little. Seyi, the
youngest, was just two years while
Titilola was just five.

There was no way I could give them
motherly care. I had no job. As a
man, I needed someone to help me
take care of them and that was why
my sister suggested that we enroll
them in a boarding school.

I feared that if I suddenly appeared at
the school, the proprietor would get
the police to arrest me since the bills
were accumulating and I could not
offset them. I really appreciate the
proprietor of Solid Rock Model
College, for coming to my rescue and
accepting the responsibility to help
me take care of my children. The
truth is this: I was pushed to the wall.
I didn’t want my children to be
beggars on the street.

All these years, I have been jobless. I
had no house to live in. I was putting
up with someone. I just rented a one-
room apartment and just got a job. I
am not a wicked father. I really miss
them but I am gradually overcoming
the challenges I have been facing. I
did not abandon them in that sense. I
can assure you that before the week
runs out, I will visit them.

The last time I saw my wife was
probably in 2007 when she left me. I
have been trying to reach her but my
search has not been fruitful. I heard
that she is somewhere in the northern
part of the country.

No matter d conscience he may have, I don't think any sane man shld abandon his children for good seven years, no matter the situation. Pls dis section is for matured mind, so take ur comment to the teenage sections
