Isaac Fayose Advises Asake, Offers Father N500K, Says He Should Forget What His Mum Said
Isaac Fayose has shared his thoughts on the ongoing controversy involving Afrobeats singer Asake and his ailing father.
In a show of generosity, he also pledged a cash donation of N500,000 to support the elderly man, who is reportedly battling a stroke.
The situation gained public attention after a viral video surfaced in which Asake’s father accused his son of neglect. In response, the Lonely at the Top crooner defended himself, stating that despite his efforts to support his father, it was never enough.
Reacting to the drama, Fayose urged Asake to approach the issue with compassion while advising men to plan for old age rather than depending entirely on their children. He pointed out that, in many cases, fathers end up alone, especially if the mother’s influence turns the children against them.
“Once you become a father, it’s important to work hard and secure your future so you don’t become dependent in old age. Many children are closer to their mothers, leaving fathers isolated. If you’re lucky to have a mother who champions you in front of your kids, then you’re fortunate,” Fayose remarked.
Addressing Asake directly, he advised: “Forget whatever your mother said and take care of your father. You only have one father, and no matter the circumstances, he deserves your support. Temper justice with mercy.”
In addition to his advice, Fayose extended financial assistance to Asake’s father, requesting his account details to transfer N500,000. Sharing the video online, he wrote:
@asakemusic father’s account number so I can send him 500K. The man is not looking too good. Man no be God.”
The development has sparked widespread debate, with many urging Asake to reconcile with his father and provide the necessary care he needs. Meanwhile, Fayose’s intervention has been praised as an act of kindness, highlighting the importance of family responsibility regardless of past grievances.
