I Got Involved In Davido And Sophie’s ‘babymama ’ Drama – Dele Momodu by Nauttyprof(m): 12:03pm On Dec 31, 2015
For the past 12 hours , the internet has been agog
with the end of year drama between Nigerian pop
star, Davido and his babymama , Sophie who
happens to be the cousin of magazine publisher ,
Dele Momodu.
The story has been in series , starting from the
airport drama on December 29 , 2015 to the
petition written against Davido by Sophie to
Davido ’ s lengthy open letter.
Now, Dele Momodu, who has been caught in the
middle of the whole brouhaha, has spoken , and
it’ s quite deep .
Read below …
In September 2015 , I got a call from Dr Adedeji
Adeleke, a long time family friend , telling me his
son had fathered a baby girl with my cousin ,
Sophia Momodu . I rejoiced with him as any
reasonable soul would do .
He apologised that he had not called all along
because he wasn ’ t sure if Sophie’ s baby was
going to turn out a fake one like that of two
others who had turned up at his doorstep. But
mercifully, according to Dr Adeleke , Sophie ’ s baby
passed the DNA Test by over 98 percent and he
was elated.
I congratulated him again as a proud grandfather .
He said he would like to meet me with Sophie
since Sophie ’ s dad , Uncle Jibola Momodu, passed
on years ago and Sophie mentioned me as her
cousin .
I had known about Sophie’ s baby through her
first cousin Ruth Abraham and had called to
congratulate her . I was happy when she sent me
pictures of the baby and other romantic pictures
with David Adeleke , aka Davido .
But I never contacted David ’ s dad deliberately so
as not to create the impression of begging for
marriage . Where we come from , it is the man who
approaches the lady ’ s family to plead to be
allowed to marry into the family .

estranged baby mama
Prior to this phone call from Dr Adeleke , Sophie
had narrated to me how on the 11 th July , 2015 ,
she was tricked to Davido ’ s sister , Coco
Adeleke’ s house with her baby, Imade Aurora
Adeleke . After getting to the house on Baderinwa
Alabi Street , Lekki Phase I, Lagos, her baby was
forcefully taken from her and she was thrown out
of the premises with the threat that she would be
decisively dealt with if she ever bothered to return
there .
There were armed policemen in the premises and
to avoid what could have been a messy
encounter, instinct prevailed on her to make her
leave her breast suckling baby behind, with so
much pain in her heart.
By daybreak on the next day, Sophie was again at
Coco Adeleke ’ s house to take her baby, but she
was prevented by armed policemen from gaining
access into the house . She was again threatened
and warned never to return for the child .

responsible for Sophie Momodu baby
Despite the pain and trauma my cousin was made
to undergo, I restrained myself from getting
directly involved in the matter and appealed to her
to stay calm and take it easy with the Adelekes.
But after the phone call from Dr Adeleke , precisely
on September 10, 2015 , I picked up Sophie and
her mum and drove to Dr Adeleke ’ s home in
Lekki, Lagos . All through this time , I had waited
patiently to meet Dr Adeleke with questions
probing for answers .
Dr Adeleke invited two of his close friends to the
meeting namely His Majesty OBA ADEDOKUN
ABOLARIN and Mr Wale Adeeyo . We went into
lengthy discussions. His daughter Coco had
brought in the little baby and both attended the
meeting .
Sophie and her daughter , Imade
Dr Adeleke explained why it took some time to
call me and I said I understood .
Dr Adeleke said the baby was discovered to have
traces of marijuana in her during medical test and
said he believed Sophie and David were smokers
and he needed to protect the child from two
irresponsible parents, as he described them . He
told the gathering that the baby would be under
temporary custody and observation.
He directed that Sophie would come to his house
every Sunday to see her baby. Our family agreed .
He promised to pay Sophie a monthly upkeep . We
thanked him for his kindness. He promised to buy
her a car . We were grateful for his generosity . We
had dinner with him and left . David was not
present .
Sophie said she got the monthly upkeep but never
got the car and that she prefers to have her baby
back and the Adelekes can keep their money.
I called Dr Adeleke and he said I should allay her
fears. I pleaded again for patience.
I was shocked when Sophie called me desperately
and said her daughter was being taken to Dubai
by Coco . I immediately called Coco and she said
she was taking the baby for intensive medicals
and I wondered how she would pass through the
airport without the consent of Sophie but she
actually did and even sent me pictures from
Dubai.
I played it cool and encouraged Sophie to calm
down.
Sophie Momodu and her uncle , Dele Momodu in
London .
Sophie became withdrawn and extremely
saddened . The situation went from bad to worse .
She and David became aggressive enemies . At a
point , David sent messages to Sophie and using
the ‘ f ’ word against me.
His father was shocked and called him to
apologise which he did and I accepted and even
told him how much I love him .
The worst came when my wife came from London
and went with Sophie to check on the baby at
Coco ’ s house and they were literally walked out
and told they were not welcome in her house . My
wife called and I called Dr Adeleke who said they
should go to his house and wait for him .
Their meeting did not go well because my wife
asked when the baby would be returned to her
mum and Dr Adeleke went into the same old story
of marijuana abuse and Sophie said she was
ready for a test which Dr Adeleke wasn ’ t
interested in.
Dr Adeleke explained why the car had not been
bought and my wife told him the baby was the
issue and not the car . Dr Adeleke didn ’ t like the
sound of this but it was reaching a point that
some truth needed to be told that a baby cannot
be bought with money.
Davido and Sophie Momodu.
I flew to Nigeria on December 28, 2015 after
Sophie told me the Adelekes were travelling to
Dubai with her baby without her consent again .
As soon as I landed I called Uncle Wale Adeeyo, a
close confidant of Dr Adeleke and expressed our
displeasure at the way Sophie was being treated
and he promised to speak to Dr Adeleke.
When he came back to me he didn ’ t sound too
positive . We spoke several times and nothing
tangible came out of his supposed intervention.
I called Oba Dokun Abolarin but he was busy at a
wedding in Ibadan . I then called Uncle Wale again
and told him Sophie has plans to stop the trip on
the knowledge that David has collected an
American passport for the baby and the rumour
that the baby was being abducted to America. I
pleaded that we should avoid a confrontation.
I headed to the airport to alert the authorities
including Immigration and Emirates . As predicted ,
the Adelekes arrived the airport with the baby
where Immigration had laid in wait for them .
Coco came forward and was asked who the
mother of the baby was and she claimed
ownership and her passport and that of the baby
were taken away by Immigration . Her dad was
alerted and he came to the office of the
Comptroller with others to try and rescue the
passports but the Immigration stood their
grounds.
I saw him making frantic calls but he gave up
after the flight departed. He repeated the same
boast that no one could ever take the baby from
him and I told him to stop talking like God.
No one likes a fight but we have been treated
shabbily and had to stop the charade . We could
not be intimidated and everyone at the airport
expressed shock and horror at such a brazen
attempt to export a human being only seven
months old without the mother .
We thanked the officers who rescued us from a
powerful family. We are always for peace , justice
and equity. No one threatened the Adelekes with
any expose unless they were using reverse
psychology.
Personally, I’ m not a junk writer and would never
descend so low to abuse those permanently
connected to us through an innocent baby . We
love the baby like they do and such an innocent
child deserves to be protected by both families .
