Davido’s sisters tried to abduct our daughter at three months old – Sophia Momodu

Published

on

Davido’s baby mama, Sophia Momodu has claimed that singer’s sisters tried to kidnap her daughter Imade, when she was three months old.

Davido and his ex-lover Sophia have recently been subjects of media discourse in a court tussle over child custody.

The singer filed a motion through Olaniyi Arije and Okey Barrah, his lawyers, at the Lagos high court on April 17, 2024.

He sought a court order granting him “unfettered and unrestricted access” to Imade who is aged nine.

Davido said he has been responsible for Imade’s education, housing, transportation, living expenses, health care, and periodic travel.

He, however, expressed concern that Sophia has been causing him emotional distress with her “utopian” demands.

He alleged that she also once denied him access to their daughter for up to “two years”.

Last month, Momodu responded to Davido’s lawsuit, arguing that she has never denied the singer access to their daughter.

Through her legal representatives Punuka Attorneys & Solicitors and Bimpe Ajegbomogun & Co., she claimed Davido “repeatedly threatened” to make her life “miserable” if she did not make herself “available to him sexually”.

In a legal document dated June 26, Sophia alleged that Davido connived with his sisters to “try and kidnap three-months-old Imade out of Nigeria”.

Momodu claimed Davido’s sisters tried to take her daughter away from me “permanently” under the guise of a holiday.

She revealed that it took the intervention of the immigration services to rescue Imade from Davido’s sisters.

Citing the incident, Sophia argued that the singer was “not fit to be a father”.

Her narration partly reads: “The applicant has demonstrated that he is not a fit father. He, in concert with his father and sisters, has tried on many occasions to kidnap our daughter and take her outside Nigeria and/or out of my reach without my consent.

“That at one time when our daughter was just three months old, she was kidnapped by his sister under the pretence that she was being taken on holiday by her whilst they were planning to take our daughter out of the country and out of my reach permanently.

“Due to the intervention of the Nigerian Immigration services, she was intercepted at the airport and apprehended for falsely representing herself as our daughter’s mother before they could leave the country, thus ensuring the safe return of our daughter to my custody.”

MultiChoice Nigeria Loses 243,000 DStv, Gotv, Subscribers In Six Months Over Increase In Price

Published

on

The South African pay-TV operator MultiChoice Group disclosed that its Nigerian unit, MultiChoice Nigeria, lost 243,000 subscribers on its Digital Satellite Television (DStv) and General Entertainment on Television (GOtv) services from April to September this year.

The company revealed these figures in its Interim Financial Results for the period ending 30 September 2024, which were released on Tuesday.

MultiChoice attributed this decline to Nigeria’s high inflation rate, which exceeds 30%, driven by the rising costs of food, electricity, and fuel, causing many customers to disconnect.

In its financial report for March 2024, MultiChoice had earlier reported an 18% subscriber loss in Nigeria.

The company further reported a 566,000-subscriber loss in the Rest of Africa operations over the past six months, with Zambia and Nigeria contributing the largest shares to this decline.

“With the Rest of Africa business having seen a decline of 803k subscribers in 2H FY24, this rate of decline slowed to 566k in 1H FY25,” stated MultiChoice.

The loss included 298,000 in Zambia and 243,000 in Nigeria, while other markets experienced a minor decline.

Extreme inflation and currency instability have negatively impacted the group’s profits, with MultiChoice Group CEO Calvo Mawela commenting, “We are making good progress in addressing the technical insolvency that resulted from non-cash accounting entries at the end of the last financial year.”

Mawela noted that the group’s net equity position is expected to recover by November.
With regard to Zambia’s losses, the company attributed them to extensive power outages caused by drought, leaving some regions with up to 23 hours of daily outages.

The company also cited competition from streaming services and changes in viewer preferences as pressures on its traditional pay-TV model.

To adapt, MultiChoice invested an additional ZAR1.6 billion in its streaming service Showmax, which reported 50% year-over-year growth.
Mawela added, “Showmax strategically positions the business to actively participate in the streaming revolution as it gains momentum across Africa.”
