Davido and Magazine Publisher,
Dele Momodu, have finally reconciled their 2-year old beef.
Both parties were at loggerheads
sometime in December 2015 following baby abduction drama between Davido and his
baby mama, Sophia, niece of Dele Momodu.
Sophia accused Davido’s family of
snatching her daughter and refusing her access to the child, while Davido
alleged that they were taking the child to Dubai for medical checkup. He
published a pathology report which claimed that the child contracted cannabis
through breastmilk.
This allegation stirred major
feud between both families as Sophia expressly denied the accusation and even
demanded that Davido’s father, who is a medical doctor, should run tests on
her.
The back-and-forth carried on for
many months, as neither party was ready to let go of their grievances.
Davido did not appreciate Dele
Momodu making the story public. The young singer would later lash out at the
media entrepreneur on Instagram. Davido would also bash him on two songs, 'Ifesinachi'
remix by Humblesmith and 'Bad, Baddo, Baddest' by Falz featuring Olamide.
Dele Momodu would react to the
name calling. "I have never responded to any of Davido’s comments, this is
the first time I would do that. After ‘Osinachi remix’ video, I called his
father… Success is a very tough thing to manage, and your fans can mislead you
sometimes.
"I know that what he is doing
is what most artists do all over the world, to sell their record. so you have
to create controversy. I don’t think David ill see me face-to-face and say I’m
his boy. I’m his father" he told Joy TV in Ghana in July 2016.
"Even the video… That’s what
is selling his record, and I’m very comfortable with it. while will I fight my
own child? I can’t fight him. Now, we’re connected together for life through
that baby. I can never fight David. He is too small to me.
"He didn’t call me a thief ,
he called me a boy. Why should I react to something that’s not true, do I look
like anybody’s boy? That would mean I’m childish" he further said.
The Momodu family had several
meetings with Davido's family to settle the custody battle.
However, they settled their
differences at the 10th edition of the Ovation Red Carol in Lagos on Sunday.
Davido apologised to the media
mogul after performing on stage.
Sharing photos from the night,
Dele Momodu, on his Instagram page praised Davido for his maturity.
He wrote ,”True reconciliation,
great joy… God bless DAVIDO… God bless DR ADEDEJI ADELEKE for his uncommon maturity.
“God bless the MOMODU family for
that simple heart… We are a family.”
