Afrobeats star Davido’s first baby mama, Sophia Momodu, has filed her defence in a lawsuit initiated by the Nigerian musician, over custody of their daughter, Aurora Imade Adeleke.
The 102 paragraphs of counter affidavit was filed through
her legal team Anthony Idigbe SAN of Punuka Attorney and Dr Bimpe Ajegbomogun.
Recall that Davido recently filed a suit seeking
custody of their daughter.
The suit, marked LD/1587PMC/2024, has as applicant Mr David Adedeji Adeleke, while Ms Sophia Momodu was listed as the sole respondent which marked the beginning of their legal battle over the child’s custody.
Davido through his legal action is seeking a court order
granting him joint custody of his daughter, Imade & unrestricted access to
her.
According to the singer, he has consistently fulfilled his
financial responsibilities towards their child’s well-being, despite his
efforts Sophia has been making unreasonable demands, seemingly designed to
harass and frustrate him.
By seeking joint custody & unfettered access, Davido
aimed to ensure a continued active role in his daughter’s life.
However, Momodu through her legal representatives, debunked
the allegations, stating that it was Davido who by his “own choice” has refused
to see their daughter since July 2022.
Momodu also revealed that she has “solely shouldered”
responsibility for their daughter since the last two years while Davido posts
Imade’s pictures on social media to “falsely portray himself as a supportive
and active father.”
The next hearing is slated for Friday, July, 5.
