Lagos, Nigeria — Entrepreneur and mother Sophia Momodu has broken her silence on the care of her nine-year-old daughter, Imade Adeleke, during a passionate and at times fiery Instagram Live session that has sparked widespread reactions online.
In the viral video, Sophia firmly stated that she single-handedly handles all bills for Imade — big and small — describing herself as her daughter’s sole support system. She pushed back strongly against fans who frequently mention Davido, Imade’s father, in her comments, telling them the singer “is not wanted here” and urging them to stop linking his name to her personal affairs.
“He is not needed here, so move on,” Sophia declared, visibly frustrated. She added that she has not seen Davido in nearly five years and expressed irritation at fans dragging him into conversations about her and Imade’s life.
The comments come amid ongoing public interest in the co-parenting dynamics between Sophia and Afrobeats superstar Davido. Fans have interpreted her remarks as subtle shade, especially following recent posts by Davido about his other children. While some supporters praised Sophia for setting boundaries and highlighting her independence as a mother and businesswoman, others questioned the narrative and referenced past custody disputes between the pair.
Sophia, who runs a successful fashion and lifestyle brand, has largely kept a low profile regarding her personal life in recent times but has occasionally addressed online speculation about Imade’s upbringing.
The heated live session has once again thrust the long-standing co-parenting situation into the spotlight, highlighting the challenges celebrities face when raising children under intense public scrutiny. As of now, neither Davido nor his representatives have publicly responded to Sophia’s latest statements.
The drama continues to trend on social media, with divided opinions across fan bases.
