The family of Grammy nominated singer, Ololade Ahmed aka Asake, are requesting that singer provides a ₦50M house in Isale Eko, which would generate rental income to support him.
The singer’s family made the demand amid the ongoing controversy involving the singer and a man, Fatai Odunsi, who claims to be his father.
Recall, a viral video surfaced showing Odunsi appealing to the public for financial assistance, citing serious health issues.
He said he has been battling stroke since 2022 and that Asake has ignored his calls despite his deteriorating condition.
In response, Asake addressed the issue in a cryptic yet emotional message shared on TikTok.
Singing in Yoruba, he said, “You can’t please everyone, you can’t please the world. But anything you are doing, just do it for God.
“My own father wants to cajole me, and I have sent so much money to him. I have struggled for so many years, but they want to make life tire me.”
Amid the ongoing drama, Asake’s family has now broken their silence, addressing not only the allegations against the singer but also accusation that the singer of neglected his daughter, Zeenat, and her mother.
They urged Asake to take responsibility for his father’s welfare and expressed willingness to conduct a DNA test to determine the paternity of 11-year-old Zeenat.
A woman featured in the video made a direct appeal to the singer, saying, “I am begging you, Ololade Mr Money, he should come and do the needful.
“I’m begging you, Ololade Mr. Money. Even if Nigerians donate ₦10 billion to this man, just ₦1 million from Asake would make him happier.
“Please take care of your father. If you don’t want to support him directly, buy him a house in Isale Eko where he can earn rent to survive.
“In this Isale Eko, you can see house of ₦40 million, ₦50 million that you can build that this man can be collecting rent. Also, if you are in doubt about Zeenat, the mother has agreed to a DNA test.”
