I'm not in support of anybody o, but is the Sophie lifestyle commendable too
We may not know much about Sophia's lifestyle but she's raising Imade into a smart, cool headed, intelligent girl. She's certainly not exposing her to all sorts of thugish weed smokers that Davido would have exposed her to if he had custody of her. She's better off with Sophia, Davido is free to visit whenever he wishes

No competent court to will grand full or joint custody to a type of parent like Davido and the tragedy of losing his son has little to do with it. He's hardly available and he surrounds himself with all sorts of shady characters no sane parent will be comfortable leaving a child with.



Sophia did not sue him, he was the one that sued her. She never stopped him from seeing Imade, she only requested that the visits must be supervised and the child cannot travel with him. Considering the type of lifestyle Davido is living, that's the best kind of access he can get with the child, let's leave sentiment out of this. It was through this lawsuit that we got to know that Davido did not pay child support on Imade for years, Sophia never made this public till she got sued and Davido never refuted this till date. Whoever advised Davido to embark on this custody battle did not do well at all
He was living same kind of lifestyle when they were together right?? Seems you don't know women. It's never about her child's safety. She just want to have the child to herself and have control over the child's relationship with her father. She's scared the child will prefer being with Davido. Especially as she's a female child .

Both him and his supporters are unwell.
He goes everywhere with Chioma and word on the street is Chioma's mother used to live with them. That is if her visa issues hasn't been sorted out. No one has denied him access to Imade and I am very sure his father said in an interview that Imade comes for the family's Christmas retreat. He wants to carry Imade and go keep with Chioma's people and his igbo smoking friends. 😂😂😂
That's the thing:

Chioma has made it abundantly clear all these years that she's not planning on doing Stepmother duties. She's no Annie Idibia, who used to host all 2face's kids. So when Davido's daughters all come around, they go to their Grandfather's house and his sisters' houses.

I've seen it happen with other men: dating women who keep making it clear that they're not there to take care of his kids. And the man accepts it as the price to keep this person in his life. It's so shocking to me: why would you date and marry a man with children, yet say you're not going to accept his kids?

It's worrying the men supporting him simply because it's a Gender War, they would never let their daughters stay in that crowd

I actually prefer her straight forward attitude in this manner

My personal observation is that women are rarely if ever sympathetic to step children.

We have all seen enough of this in polygamous settings.

Better put it all out in the open rather than the usual situation where some children are being treated like third wheels or unwanted second class human beings

It will be even worse because Davido is not a hands on parent. At most he will assemble the kids in the house, do a selfie, upload to Instagram. Fathering done now go and hang with the boys.

Those were lies Davido concocted against Sophia during that time Adeleke family unsuccessfully tried to snatch Imade from Sophia. FYI, both Sophia and imade were tested and no traces of controlled substances were found in either of their systems. If such substances were found in their systems, don't you think Adeleke would have successfully collected imade from her at the time? You think a family like Adeleke would fold their arms and watch their child get raised by a drug user? Stop letting hatred cloud your judgement.
So davidos father lied ?... see u... so negative stories about Davido are true while negative stories about Sofia are lies grin... u are a woman. So im not surprised... always using emotions that u can't control

If you have a baby daddy,whose mother as Kemi Olunloyo alleges,died of cocaine overdose on her husband'sbirthday.( She might be lying.)

If you have a baby daddy whose work means he is rarely at home at nights and also travels for extended periods.

If your baby daddy openely smokes all sorts, probably snuffs other things as well.

If your baby daddy sleeps with different women all the time and was even seen on camera crying and begging a lady allow him to put just the tip inside.

If your baby daddy belongs to a freedom fighting movement, whose enemies targets and kills both their high profile and regular members and sometimes kill their family and friends just to drop message.

A baby daddy whose other child drowned in a swimming pool when both father and mother were not at home even though there were at least five other adults in the house.

...ask yourself will you be comfortable and eager to allow your only child to go and stay there even for one week and leave your child in the hands of strangers when you are alive and capable of caring for her?

Don't be blinded by idol worship.

David's career, circle of friends and homestead is no where to raise a child.

David himself may be kindhearted and a loving dad but his environment is shit and not conducive to raise a child in without the mother present.

The lawyer was right in pointing that out no matter how angry David may feel. That is exactly her job. To convince the judge with facts beyond reasonable doubt.

It is a reality check for him.

I once took my family to a family friend's Christmas party. After a while, they brought out cards, placed bets and started to gamble in the precense of their own and other people's children.


Immediately i sighted their actions, I gather my kids and move straight under 10 seconds...before dem go create problem wey money no fit solve. I no dey take my children welfare joke with anybody.
Did you write all these ones yourself and is the so called mother a saint either ? But I thought you will say if you have a baby daughter whose mother (names not mentioned) also smokes all sorts and manners of drugs or sleeps around with people not her husband , how can you keep an innocent girl with such person. The mother needs care and not custody cos the guy is ready to share custody so that the girl will not suffer the consequences of her mother's headyness.

And despite not playing step mother duties, Davido, his family and friends love her. 😃

The only thing Chioma hasn't been able to do successfully is stop Davido's wandering manhood. Maybe she has, but if Tuface could pull a hat-trick and just when we thought he is retired, a 4th came along at 50, then nothing community husbands no fit do.

Don't mind those ones. I am sure it is one olodo lawyer like them that encouraged Davido to go fight for joiny custody.

I realized it last year:

Nigerian society isn't built on Love.

So it will be very difficult for Step-parenting to work here. And children are difficult for even their own biological parents.

Because I compared 2nd Marriage anecdotal gist in Nigeria to 2nd Marriage anecdotal gist in the USA and omo! In general, Nigerian women were not bred to love another woman's child. The best you could hope for was polite tolerance and "please stay with your Father and leave me alone when you're around, I am not your mother.

Nigerian medical people wanted to ask my classmate if and how she would love her child that she had through Surrogacy, even though it was her egg used so it was biological hers.

Nigerian women that will say "the child I adopted is misbehaving" and return that child back to the village or orphanage, from the USA.

A few were trying but I know understand why my brother said if anything happened to his wife, he would never remarry.

Even me, that I'm very good with kids because of my profession, I'm not sure I won't snap once in a while.

I realized that most of the 2nd marriages around me where the kids felt comfortable in their father's house, was because the 2nd wife was White or not Nigerian.

I don't forgive Nigerian men who remarry and see this, yet keep quiet and hope inside them that one day their kids will understand and forgive them in their old age. The men literally know their new wives cannot stand their kids but will marry them.

Stop making up scenarios.
He has never been denied access to Imade.
He was with same Imade earlier in the year and posted the pictures himself. He is being denied JOINT CUSTODY (without supervision), not access. Two different things.
Why should he financially support a child that his baby mama denied him joint custody

They love her because she's not opening his dirty laundry in public. He does that so well already on his own.

I don't understand his lack of self-control.

I have a feeling that Tuface and Annie crashed out mutually and both wanted out of their marriage, then both suffered for it (he hid it with new rushed marriage and she lost a ton of weight). And now, dust will be settling small small, eyes will be clearing and both beginning to regret.

So far, no child has died in the custody of the mother. And no one has overdosed on cocaine in the mother's house.

The law does not give a f**k about your feelings. Davido had no business in court if he was mature.

The problem with people like you id you worship money and ANYTHING a wealthy and famous person does is right.


If David's son had died in America, somebody will SURELY go to prison for negligence...and he dares not approach the court for custody of any child ever again.

Guy dey lament sey lawyer bring up him dead son. Is that not the big red flag.

Amazing that team Davido keeps trying to assassinate Sophies character as an alleged drug abuser when the Internet is full of pictures of Davido smoking weed.

If the lawyer had really wanted to F with him it could have been a complete deconstruction

Humans lie, test results don't especially test that was meticulously carried out. They both came out clean without any traces of substances in their systems. The only way Imade would have been exposed to weeds and other harmful substances is if she was living with her dad.

The only people allowing emotions to get the best of them are Davido and men that are upset because a mother is trying to raise her child the best way she can considering the circumstances. They prefer the child to be exposed to all sorts of shady, unhinged men and a stepmother that has made it clear doesn't want her around so the mother won't be seen as bitter and desperate.

Gotocourt:
It's better for him, most Judges will grant custody to the mother for minors. People fight dirty in court 🤷🏿.
No need for him to fight for joint custody especially as it's a girl. If you do the mum will use it to be getting at you.
Just leave the girl and be sending her gifts till she's 18. The mum would be the ultimate loser.

Oya shebi he has left the matter, let the woman take care of her child. If I were David I would have ignored that child and the mother tay tay, after all he has other kids, infact I will block all but basic financing to the kid and especially the mother. Abi is it not kids looking for their fathers to associate with all over the world especially a proper well to do papa?
Abegi, David and his family messed up by showing too much concern fo that child, if na me na the mama go de drag the pikin come my gate for recognition.

To those using his late son as a benchmark: I wish you all the best. Facts:

He hired a dedicated nanny for his son: Yes
He has other kids with access to the pool : Yes
His son knew swimming: Yes

So, because of one accident, should he lose parenting rights or access to his daughter? Ridiculous. Just like I'd crash a car once, but still drive again. Logic, people.
