Asake has reacted after his father accused him of abandoning him since 2022.
In a viral video, a man named Fatai Odunsi, aka Malo, who claims to be Asake’s father, said Asake stopped picking his calls since 2022 when his health began to decline, which is why he is coming out to the public to ask for help.
“I am Asake’s father. I gave birth to him. I gave birth to Asake, Ahmed, the singer. Babatunde Ololade Odunsin, Mr. Money. Since I had a stroke, I haven’t seen him. The last time I saw him was March 29, 2022. He doesn’t pick my calls when I call him. Please, I only need your help,” Odunsi said.
Seemingly addressing the controversy in a song, Asake sang in Yoruba: “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 how it’s going? Even my father wants to cajole me, but I stand firm and they can’t off my light. I used to press money for him and I do it with one mind. If you strike, I will move on. No one can quench my fire. God is the one that is taking me ahead in life.”
Asake previously gifted his father a car as a viral video online shows.
