Fatai Odunsi, father of popular Nigerian singer Asake, has confirmed that he and his son have resolved their recent disagreement.
In a viral video shared on Sunday, Odunsi, appearing at his residence in Isale Eko, Lagos, assured the public that the family rift had been settled.
Background of the Dispute
Earlier, Odunsi had publicly appealed for financial assistance to address his deteriorating health, alleging that Asake had abandoned him for years. However, the singer swiftly denied these claims, insisting that he had supported his father financially multiple times but was facing undue pressure.
The controversy deepened when some family members accused Asake of neglecting his alleged 11-year-old daughter, Zeenat, and her mother, Adijat.
Reconciliation and Financial Commitment
Following the public outcry, Odunsi released another video clarifying that the issue had been resolved. He stated that Asake had reached out to the family and assured him of his continued support, including covering his medical expenses.
“I am proud of him. He will never fail. It’s just that I hadn’t seen him in a long time. Even his mother should have asked when last he visited me. That was what upset me,” Odunsi explained.
He further revealed that Asake had promised to secure a house for him in Lagos and reaffirmed his commitment to supporting his alleged daughter.
“Asake has listened to me. He says he will give me whatever I need. He has even started looking for a house to buy for me here in Lagos.
“He has also assured me that he will take care of his daughter. There was never a time he denied her,” he added.
With the reconciliation now confirmed, it appears that the family dispute has been put to rest, bringing an end to the controversy surrounding the singer.
