@nedekid,

I FIRST knew about this annoying paternity DNA testing case in 2014 (12 years ago) when it was first widely reported in the media (after being exclusively published by Punch newspaper) where Ayotomide Labinjo (whose late father was a Sociology lecturer at the University of Ibadan) and her now late lawyer gave details about the DNA tests. It's totally irritating that this case hasn't ended as of 2026! Right BELOW is an over 10 years Punch newspaper article link on the DNA saga.

https://punchng.com/davido-alleged-baby-mama-clash-over-paternity/


The young man called David Adeleke told a lie and has in reality met and had a brief affair with Ayo Labinjo (who was working briefly in a club after finishing high school) as of February 2013 and Ayo Labinjo CLEARLY stated that David was the ONLY one she slept with before getting pregnant! She also CLEARLY and accurately mentioned the names of those who were in Ibadan with David. Ayo Labinjo is NOT a fool as she accuratetely recalled those who were in Ibadan with Davido (who was just an up-coming and little-known musician at that time). The irresponsible comments by David that he doesn't know Ayotomide (Ayo) is just a "sarcastic comment" NOT a fact BECAUSE David thought Ayo is a prostitute (or Oloso as he WRONGLY refered to her in 2014 and afterwards when the DNA saga first came up in the media) and I remember at that time, PUNCH newspaper exclusively reported that ONLY two DNA tests were done which Ayo Labinjo contested and insisted that a proper DNA test should be done from a neutral DNA testing facility due to the fears of DNA samples being improperly collected. Even Bobo Ajudua (the Igbuzo, Delta State-born lawyer, Fred Ajudua's biological son) who was Davido's former lawyer ALSO said it was 2 DNA tests that were conducted.

Ayo Labinjo's late father was a lecturer of Sociology at the University of Ibadan and he was Ifedayo "Freeze" Olarinde's lecturer. Freeze himself confirmed this is his recent video on the DNA situation. David denied knowing Ayo Labinjo simply because he though she was a prostitute or Oloso. But she comes from a decent family with her late father being a University of Ibadan academic. I FIRST knew her father was a University of Ibadan academic of the Sociology Department through Punch newspaper in 2014 and Daddy Freeze also confirmed again as of January 2026 that in the late 1990s when he was a student of the University of Ibadan, Ayo Labinjo's biological father was his lecturer.


Last but NOT least, just because 'Deji Adeleke held up some documented DNA results in that Channels Television video I posted here doesn't necessarily mean it's accurate. There are various DNA testing companies with different sample collection and testing methodologies and according to Ayo Labinjo and her lawyer in 2014, the samples taken of David Adeleke were suspected to have been compromised and this is why I CLEARLY suggested in my post that David, his cousin 'Bayo (BRed) and any other close person with David in that club in Ibadan MUST be tested at another credible paternity DNA testing company in other to CLEAR all doubts. DNA samples were collected from David and his cousin (BRed) under opaque conditions NOT witnessed by Ayo Labinjo and her lawyer in Lagos State and then sent to South Africa for testing. The results were then sent back to Nigeria WITHIN 1 month. We know that samples can easily be compromised and this is why doing a final one openly would even boost the image of the Adeleke family if tests are done at a different certified DNA testing company. Ayotomide Labinjo should ALSO get herself a credible lawyer since her former lawyer is late. Anu has to get final closure by knowing who her real biological father is.

This is NOT the time for anybody to trivialize or deflect the current situation by saying that "everyone in Ibadan or the SW should be tested" BECAUSE Anu (Anuoluwapo) has to know who her biological father is. I was very furious that the 2014 DNA scandal which I CLEARLY followed in 2014 has NOT been resolved as of 2026, a clear 12 years later. Ayo Labinjo said emphatically that Davido is the ONLY one she slept with and she's still insisting on that. I there is another person she once had a relationship with, then she can approach whoever it is BUT as the situation stands, she firmly insists that David Adeleke is the ONLY one she slept with in 2013. Period.

https://punchng.com/davido-alleged-baby-mama-clash-over-paternity/

Did you have a one-on-one conversation with Anu's mum?

AlphaTaikun:
True that. I agree with the bolded part of your post.

Furthermore, there's a Punch newspaper article on this same DNA issue that you can read right BELOW from 2016. I ORIGINALLY got to know about this very annoying DNA case in 2014 when Punch newspaper exclusively reported that Ayo (Ayotomide Labinjo) and her late lawyer had requested for a DNA test which they later rejected because the samples (saliva) swabs were NOT taken in Ayo and her lawyer's presence. So, the samples were suspected to have been compromised.

https://punchng.com/davido-alleged-baby-mama-clash-over-paternity/


Ayotomide Labinjo has CLEARLY stated again and again that Davido (who was just an up-coming musician as of February 2013 when they both slept with each other in Ibadan) was the ONLY male she ever slept with before she got pregnant and that's where the mystery lies.
David Adeleke ALSO lied that he does not know Ayo but Ayo was able to mention and identity those who were with David in Ibadan as of February 2013! David sarcastically made that statement of denying Ayo because he thought she was cheap or a prostitute (Oloso). For CLARITY sake, Ayo Labinjo's biological father was a lecturer at the Sociology Department of the University of Ibadan. Ifedayo Olarinde "Daddy Freeze" ALSO confirmed in his recent reaction video on this DNA testing situation that Ayo Labinjo's biological father was his Sociology lecturer at the University of Ibadan. So, Ayo Labinjo is NOT from a semi-literate family. She has also lived in England before.

A new DNA testing company different from the one in South Africa MUST be used this time around and Ayo and her legal team MUST be present this time around to witness the taking of the saliva swab samples and ensure they are properly sealed for onward movement to the laboratory facilities of any certified paternity DNA testing company.

I'm REALLY pissed off right now that a DNA scandal that came into the public domain through Punch newspaper in 2014 has NOT been resolved as of 2026. It's unkind to that little girl called Anu (Anuoluwapo) who needs to find out who her biological father is. Period.

I also agree, they should let a neutral party like the US embassy carry out the test to fulfill all righteousness for the sake of the girl

IamAsiri:
Did you have a one-on-one conversation with Anu's mum?

In surmarry, the girl should go to court to seek legal instructions compelling David to do another test and all cost must be covered by her, aside that, the adelekes should ignore them or serve them with a cease and desist order.
On the alternative, if the adelekes have to pay a attention to this matter again, it must be done at heavy cost to that lady in terms of her freedom. An example has to be set to discourage paternity fraud.

IamAsiri:
Did you have a one-on-one conversation with Anu's mum?

I've NEVER met her (Ayo Labinjo) in her 35 years of existence. She was just 23 as of February 2013 when she first met David Adeleke in Ibadan.

All that I know about Ayo Labinjo originally come from the year 2014 when this annoying paternity DNA test quagmire fire erupted and was exclusively reported by Punch newspaper before getting on social media. Punch published a lot of deep information about Ayo Labinjo's background and how Anu (Anuoluwapo) was born. That's when I knew that her late biological father who was a University of Ibadan lecturer of Sociology passed on in 2001. 12 years down the line in 2026, the case is still on and has to come to an end this year.

If you haven't, then I would advise you not to meddle into what you know nothing about. It is obvious that the poor girl is not Adeleke's, else you wouldn't see the old man granting such press conference. Does he even have such time?

I just pity the girl's mother, who didn't take advantage of the scholarship given to her. That would have gone a long way in helping her life.

nedekid:
If David is the only one she said she slept with, why then should Bred be of concern?
Oga because someone's late father was a lecturer does not make the person mary magdalene. Funny enough I was in Uni ibadan within 1990-1995 and within that faculty, probably my poor memory may not let me remember the man, but if I make one or two calls I can give you full details of that family from other friends who's parents were lecturers at that time.

Did you watch the interview of Dr Adeleke, if you did, then watch it again, this time slowly.

The man said he took David for the appointment, saliva samples was taken in the presence of himself and the girl's mother, (note that girl lied that it was blood sample). The hospital then sent the samples to South Africa for test.

Is it that you are not aware that no DNA sample is analyzed in Nigeria? What happens is that centers in Nigeria get affiliate labs abroad, they collect samples and send to this labs for analysis. The result is the sent back sealed.
Did you listen to the part where Dr Adeleke said the hospital made him and the girls mother sign for the samples and that the results on being ready will only be opened in the presence of both parties? When the result was ready, both parties were invited ie the girls mother and Dr adeleke, in their presence the results was opened and it was seen that the child was not David's. The mother fell in the floor and broke down in tears. Dd you hear the part that despite that, David's father asked that they remained in Lagos, he arranged hotel and upkeep money for them, that they should look for 2 or more test centers of their choice, that he will make David available again to do test, but to his surprise, he found out the girls mother left for ibadan!.

Did you hear Dr adeleke say if the child's had been theirs they will be fighting for custody? Oga, do you want David or the adelekes to accept a child that is not theirs either david slept with her or not?

See, I think enough is enough, the adelekes should put a stop to this gold digger without malice. They should go full legal, infact petition the security agencies, afterall we have the social media criminal laws. That girl must proof that David is the father of her puppy and if for what ever reason David has to do a test again, there has to be full prosecution of the girl for making false allegations, attempted paternity fraud, defamation, actions likely to cause breakdown of public peace and many other charges.

The Adeleke must break and disengage from any sort of assistance for that girl or her child.

@nedekid,

Yes indeed, I have ALWAYS been aware that all DNA samples are taken to laboratory facilities outside Nigeria. It's just swab samples that are taken to South Africa, the UK or the United States. I watched the FULL media interview of 'Deji Adeleke on the Channels Television YouTube channel and the second video is from Arise News. I've attached the two FULL videos right BELOW:

In the Channels Television video Timestamp 24:08, 'Deji Adeleke said he did NOT follow them (David Adeleke and Adebayo David [BRed] his nephew who also bears the name David Adeleke in addition to the name Adebayo) for the subsequent DNA test sample collections at other clinics except when he followed them to the FIRST Indian hospital named Verdic on Lekki Peninsula which he normally uses for his medical checkups.

It's good to know that you also attended the University of Ibadan in the 1990s and I assume you are over 50 like me (which shows in the mature convo and useful suggestions you are giving out here). I get your perspectives very CLEARLY and Ayo Labinjo was even given a scholarship to Adeleke University in Ede where she studied English up to the end of her 200 level before she left after her mother got to know on a visit to 'Deji Adeleke's younger sister of another banker guy Ayo Labinjo allegedly dated in Ibadan from the Channels Television Timestamp 38:50 as told by Dr. Sikiru Adeleke, (Dr. 'Deji Adeleke's cousin who works at Adeleke University) who Ayo Labinjo allegedly confided in after Sikiru Adeleke asked why a young lady like her doesn't know the father of her child. Ayo Labinjo's mother too came to Ede and said she had gone around and I we assume "spiritualists" had told her as of 2022 that David Adeleke is Anu's alleged father.

There's a lot of muddling up here, so, just like you stated, Ayo Labinjo should get a lawyer and get to do another round of DNA tests from the Ibadan-based banker who declined to do a DNA test and from David Adeleke as well. Enough of this NONSENSE as that little girl (Anuoluwapo) has to know who her biological father is.

This should serve as a lesson too for to young ladies who just have s*x with people they aren't married to. Ayo should just thank her stars that in Yorubaland, children born out of wedlock are usually NOT denied, BUT this is ALSO a good lesson for people to do DNA tests so that another man's child is NOT given to you as a man to raise from childhood.

I MUST commend Dr. 'Deji Adeleke for offering a scholarship to Ayo Labinjo and paying her N50,000 monthly while helping other people ofcip to 3,000 from his foundation which was founded in 1996.

Look here, I first knew about this issue which has been in the public domain since 2014 when Punch newspaper granted exclusive interviews to Ayo Labinjo (Anu's mother) and her now late lawyer. You CANNOT barge in here to tell me NOT to have an opinion on this issue which you incorrectly refered to as "meddling into." 'Deji Adeleke himself had a media chat just 4 days ago BECAUSE nearly everyone of Nigeria descent in the Diaspora and in Nigeria are talking about it.

This whole vexatious DNA testing saga has been in the public domain for 12 years NOW just as I said earlier, so you CANNOT tell me and others NOT to have an "opinion" on this situation. That's a VERY disrespectful comment from you about "meddling" that you made to me! My convo with you ends right NOW. Period.

dominique:

@dominique,

Absolutely! The confidential setting of the United States Embassy would do the trick since David is a U.S. citizen and the requirements for giving out American citizenships to children of U.S. citizens such as David Adeleke is to take their paternity DNA tests ['Deji Adeleke showed a DNA test of Imade taken in 2020] in the video (when she was to apply for American citizenship through David).


Right BELOW are the two FULL videos of the Dr. 'Deji Adeleke media chat from the YouTube platforms of Channels Television and Arise News which I watched in full and you may wish to watch any of the two videos if you haven't fully done so. It turns out that Ayo Labinjo (Anu's mother) was given a scholarship by the to study English at Adeleke University in Ede which she accepted and got paid N50,000 monthly. She performed brilliantly BUT she stopped attending lectures in her 200 level. There's also another alleged banker in Ibadan who she was alleged to have told Dr. Sikiru Adeleke in confidence (he is Dr. 'Deji Adeleke's cousin who works with Adeleke University) she was dating.

Davido should go to court to end this matter.

Arkmanbuddy:
I also think Mr. Deji should also talk to his sons to stop sleeping around. This is not a flex that your son's been accused of not accepting a child that's thought to be his, though DNA tests have proved otherwise.

The man shouldn't be out here defending his sons. That's my take.

You should have gotten over 100 likes. This is samething I said. Davido is dragging the family name into the mud . His he the only celebrity or only child that came From wealthy family. I can understand if this na first time issue , but this is not the first Davido private life has been in the public eye....

Now we have the father explaining himself and reading out loud epstile for the public. Like Nigeria does not have enough concerning issues to deal with other than an old man explaining himself to the public because his son can't control his 3rd leg ........

This is why I like the Mike Adenuga and his family. Mike will never come out to to be reading epstile about one of his child bad behaviors. That man no get that kind time. He would have quietly deal with privately and warn that his child from spoiling the family name

Baba wetin be 50k monthly from a billionaire. If you want to help someone do it all the way full and close that chapter..
I would have set a budget for that person at 400k per month. This will take care of her personal needs and other obligations. And this will be applicable to the duration of school. And after that I will cut her off . Because have gone more than above for that person. If that person messes up , I will not lift a single finger. This will be sign by both parties......

But at the end of the day, I don't have any right to tell a person how to spend their money or who to give their money to.....

N400,000 monthly would amount to N4.8million annually which is a lot. I get your perspective though.

In any event, the N50,000 is significant because it was part of the scholarship given as part of the undergraduate program for her use alone and Ayo Labinjo ALSO got free accomodation and free feeding in Adeleke University. If she had NOT left that Uni in her 200 level, she would have graduated from the department of English by now and got her NYSC exemption certificate because she is over 30 years (35 in 2026). 'Deji Adeleke wanted Ayo Labinjo to finish her Uni education FIRST so that she can stand on her own as clearly stated in that media interview 5 days ago (then he would have assisted her more).

I know that Anu (Anuolowapo) will still be assisted to become great in life by 'Deji Adeleke who has 2 PhDs (NOT honorary) because he is a VERY kind man.

Obviously you did not listen to the interview well well. Dr Adeleke said they have a program in the school for older people or indigent students where in they have free tuition fees, work is also provided for them in the school environment where they earn stipents of 50k for their upkeep. That gold digger was enrolled in the program although it was not mandatory she works to earn the money.
Now you ask why the man could not give her 400k monthly instead, hmmm.. Bros hard to say and to use a word I do not like ie entitlement. The Nigerian mentality that one is owed more, what make it worse in this case is that there is no relationship between the Adeleke and this lady and her daughter. Very soon you guys will say she should be involved in sharing assets of the family because Adeleke has been taking care of her since birth.
I have said it time and time again and with all sense of responsibility, Nigerians are unique people you do not help, do not do charity etc, they are too entitled, the help you do will be used against you. I watched sadly highly influential blogger like auntyadunni say if there was no kleg in that girls paternity linked with the Adeleke, then why have they paid her expenses since birth, not just that but funded the mother, why does her aunt have easy access to Dr Adeleke she can call and text him? The baba said he chose to help since the child crossed his path and that at anytime he has 3000 students he sponsors, why not add her to the list? Nigerians still used that against him!. Anyway I know Dr Adeleke is wise enough to know the legal implications of what he is doing, tomorrow those gold diggers can use to to drum up a case that she is used to the lifestyle provided by the Adeleke and is entitled to more.
Give her 400k, why not 4m? Peter Obi put borehole for an indigent community, Nigerians said he did not make it fine enough, if he had made it fine, they will say he did not put shade, that he wants sun to injure people while fetching water, he puts shade they will say he did not put air-conditioning, he puts that they will say he did not put chairs, he puts they will say he did not provide snacks for them while using the bore whole.
Better to chop your money, use it on yourself and family, fly to Paris, London, Qatar, Turkey etc and enjoy that money rather than spend it in charity for people that will still despise you. Oga I have learnt the hard way and so learnt this policy from my friends the Ariyo brothers. Billionaires yet it is their policy not to borrow you money, they can visit you and dash your wife and kids 1000s of $$ but omo no vex their shishi you no fit see.
Adeleke better discard that lady and her daughter ASAP and then place a cease and desist order on them.

While also helping her daughter and paying her school fees and some other stuffs?

The 50k is the statutory payment that the school gives. Is waiving at least a million naira for them per semester not enough help? Or what exactly do you mean? He should leave the other people on the scholarship payroll and concentrate on her because she is what? Almost daughter-in-law?
