Billionaire father of Nigerian music star Davido, Dr. Adedeji Adeleke, on Wednesday intervened in the long-running controversy surrounding a child identified as Anu Lupo, after online claims linking the child to his son.
The issue, which has repeatedly resurfaced on social media, stems largely from allegations made by controversial commentator Kemi Olunloyo, who has claimed that Davido fathered a child named Anu.
Briefing the media on Wednesday, Dr. Adeleke said the briefing was convened to respond to what he described as persistent falsehoods surrounding the matter. “The reason why I called this press conference is for us to address this issue properly,” he said.
Dr. Adeleke alleged that Olunloyo had targeted his son for years with damaging narratives, stating that “everything she says about David is always negative, trying to put him in a bad light with the public.”
He disclosed that he first became aware of the matter in 2014 after receiving a letter from a lawyer in Ibadan alleging that Davido had impregnated and abandoned a woman. “I received a letter in 2014 from a lawyer in Ibadan alleging that my son got somebody pregnant and abandoned the person with the child,” he said, adding that he took immediate steps to address the allegation at the time.
The business mogul said renewed concern arose after social media posts, allegedly written in the name of the child, began circulating online. He questioned the legality of such actions, saying, “I’m not even sure if it’s legal for someone to impersonate a minor.”
Dr. Adeleke further revealed that he was contacted by a woman who identified herself as the sister of Anu’s mother and who resides in Abuja. Reading from the message during the briefing, he quoted her as saying, “I just wanted to clarify that the account is not run by me, Ayo or my mom.”
According to Dr. Adeleke, the woman stated that the family had severed ties with Olunloyo years ago. “The account is run by Kemi Olunloyo, whom we have cut ties with years ago,” the message read, adding that the family had repeatedly asked her to stop posting about the child.
Dr. Adeleke expressed concern about the emotional and reputational impact of the controversy, particularly on the families involved, and reiterated that the Adeleke family had no connection to the online accounts being used to make the claims.
The Adeleke family has consistently maintained that the allegations linking Davido to the child are false, while Olunloyo has continued to stand by her claims.
The press conference marks the most detailed public response yet from Davido’s father, as the family seeks to formally address the controversy amid renewed public attention.
