Why I abandoned my sick father – Asake breaks silence

Ahmed Ololade, better known as Asake has reacted to a viral video of his father seeking financial assistance from the public due to what he described as “health struggles”.

TheNewsGuru recalls that a man identified as Fatai Odunsi in a video that surfaced on social media, revealed he has been suffering from a stroke since 2022.

Odunsi alleged that he has not seen Asake since his stroke and claimed that the singer has consistently ignored his calls.

“I am the father to Asake who is singing. The last time I saw him was when this thing happened to me on March 29, 2022,” he said.

“He does not pick up my calls anytime I call him. Now I have become tired. I have been looking for this my brother and I recently met with him.”

In reaction, Asake took to his social media to address the situation through a song, where he claimed that his father was attempting to manipulate him despite his generosity.

“You can’t please the world. Whatever you do, do it for God and always remember the day you’ll die and meet your God. My people, can you see? Even my father wants to cajole me. I used to press money for him and I do it with one mind. No one can quench my fire. God is the one that is taking me ahead in life,” he sang in Yoruba.
