He also mentioned that he was heading to the studios immediately he was discharged. Recall that Davido and his lover and baby’s mother, Sophie, who are both unmarried, had been in a quiet struggle for the possession of the child, the PUNCH had earlier reported Matters assumed a different dimension when the artiste and his half-sister, Ashely Adeleke, were reportedly prevented from travelling to Dubai with the child by immigration officials at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos. The officials, it was said, acted in response to a petition from Sophia, which claimed that the singer and his folks had abducted her daughter. The immediate result was an altercation on social media between Davido and his folks on one hand and Sophie, as well as her cousin and publisher of OVATION magazine, Dele Momodu, on the other. However, Davido is not the first popular Nigerian artiste to find himself entangled in what is now known as the ‘baby mama’ syndrome.
