  Hello and welcome back to the episode of Bounced Lorencia.
• 0:03
  How are you all doing up? You're doing great.
• 0:05
  For today's episode, I want to talk about Davido and Sophia
• 0:09
  Momodu and their daughter Imadi. Now, these two people, they've
• 0:14
  been fighting ever since Sophia got pregnant for Imadi.
• 0:19
  And according to the story, the reason why Sophia is angry with
• 0:25
  Davido or the reason why Davido is angry with Sophia, depending
• 0:31
  on who you're asking, if you have Davido Davido's camp, they
• 0:35
  will say that Sophia is preventing Davido from seeing
• 0:38
  his daughter Imadi. And if you ask Sophia, Sophia
• 0:41
  will tell you that Davido has refused to take responsibility
• 0:45
  of Imadi. Now, Imadi is I think 1011 years
• 0:51
  old and she is growing up to be a very beautiful, intelligent
• 0:57
  and, you know, bright child with a bright future.
• 1:02
  And Sophia has done a very good job.
• 1:05
  But for some reason Davido is trying to get custody of or
• 1:10
  according to Davido, he only wants shared custody and Sophia
• 1:15
  is preventing him from having shared custody of his daughter.
• 1:20
  Now, if you ask Sophia, Sophia, I will say the reason why she's,
• 1:22
  she's refusing to give him custody is because if I,
• 1:28
  Davido's son died under his watch, drowned in his swimming
• 1:33
  pool some years ago. Now, this was the drama that
• 1:38
  happened in court recently because Davido went to course to
• 1:43
  get shared custody. And according to Davido, Sofia's
• 1:47
  lawyer literally mentioned his son, the drowning of his son, as
• 1:53
  the reasons why Sophia is refusing to give him custody.
• 1:57
  He said that was a low blow. Like, why would you bring up his
• 2:02
  dead child into the home mix? Davido's drama is almost on a
• 2:07
  weekly basis. This year alone, we've had Anu,
• 2:13
  we've had the Grammys, and now Sophia.
• 2:16
  Sophia is always in the mix. Almost every quarter.
• 2:22
  There's an issue with Sophia and Davido.
• 2:25
  Now, for some of you who don't, let me just give you a bit of a
• 2:27
  background. Davido met Sophia Momodu when he
• 2:31
  was still a rising star. At that point.
• 2:33
  He had, if you look at the timeline, he had been introduced
• 2:37
  to trauma. They were in the same school,
• 2:39
  but I think trauma was, you know, she was very young.
• 2:44
  She didn't want to go into a relationship, so they were not
• 2:49
  officially dating at that time. So he started dating Sofia.
• 2:56
  But before then, Anu's mother, his first his alleged first
• 3:00
  child, had claimed that she met him at A at her restaurant or at
• 3:07
  her workplace. And then David Doe took her
• 3:10
  home, got her pregnant and then abandoned her.
• 3:15
  That has been a whole drama. Even Davido's father had to come
• 3:20
  out to address the issue saying that they have conducted about 5
• 3:24
  DNA tests and Anu is not his grandchild, so that's is ongoing
• 3:33
  at the background. Anu is demanding that they have
• 3:37
  another DNA test to prove that she is an idyllicy.
• 3:41
  A lot of people had said, listen, why don't you just adopt
• 3:44
  this girl? You know it will cost you
• 3:46
  nothing to adopt as your daughter.
• 3:50
  There are so many accusations flying here and there about
• 3:55
  Davido's dad giving Anu's mom scholarship, giving her 50,000
• 4:00
  naira per month. So Anu's mother felt or Anu's
• 4:05
  grandmother felt that they deserve more.
• 4:08
  I mean 50,000 for carrying an A delicious child that was too
• 4:13
  small. So David is trying to stay out
• 4:16
  of the mix. But his legally or proven first
• 4:22
  child Imadi was also born around the same time, I think 2 years
• 4:29
  apart. And Davido, when Sophia got
• 4:34
  pregnant they were still together.
• 4:36
  For some reason they had issues and he started dating Chuma.
• 4:42
  That did not go down well with Sophia.
• 4:44
  But according to the story, Sophia and David Doe kept their
• 4:49
  relationship private. So basically Sophia Davido was
• 4:53
  dating Chuma and Sophia at the same time or at intervals.
• 4:59
  And according to Sophia, the reason why that relationship,
• 5:02
  what's going on was because if she asked for stuff for her
• 5:08
  child or ask for help on how to raise a child or monetary value
• 5:14
  or something, he would always want to sleep with her and she
• 5:19
  would always give in until I think 2023 was when she came
• 5:26
  out. I think if I had passed at that
• 5:28
  time when she came out and said that she's no longer doing it.
• 5:32
  I mean, she's been dating this guy for over a decade at that
• 5:36
  point. She's had his child.
• 5:40
  So she's saying that she's she's had it.
• 5:42
  She would not continue in that relationship.
• 5:45
  And then he had married Chioma. So basically David Doe,
• 5:50
  according to Sophia Momodu, if you go by what she has said, had
• 5:54
  married Shoma but was still getting Kuchi from Sophia.
• 6:00
  So after the marriage, people started dragging Sophia saying
• 6:04
  that oh, you know, she is a baby, just a baby Mama.
• 6:08
  She is just this, she's just that.
• 6:10
  So Sophia got angry because maybe she was getting some hope
• 6:17
  from David Doe. Maybe he was telling her he was
• 6:19
  going to marry her. We don't know the information
• 6:23
  that David Doe was giving Sophia for her to remain in that
• 6:26
  relationship or in that situation she for that long.
• 6:32
  But Sophia said she was not doing again.
• 6:34
  She came out, she released text messages and that was the
• 6:39
  beginning of the end. According to Sophia, Davido
• 6:42
  stopped paying child support, doing anything for her for for
• 6:46
  the child. So she that was when Davido's
• 6:51
  dad stepped in to help. He decided to stop paying her
• 6:57
  school fees. But Sophia said paying school
• 7:00
  fees is not raising a child, that she as the primary
• 7:04
  caregiver would have to forgo certain jobs or certain projects
• 7:11
  because she's there for her child.
• 7:14
  So it is not just about school fees.
• 7:17
  Sophia was demanding for a Range Rover or was it for a a brand
• 7:23
  new Range Rover or I don't even know the car that Sophia was
• 7:26
  demanding for, for a Jelly. I honestly I can't remember.
• 7:30
  But Sophia was demanding for a certain car, brand new T Rover.
• 7:36
  She was given a Range Rover, but she said that the Range Rover
• 7:40
  was not brand new according to David Doe.
• 7:42
  So the video said she what she wanted was to be flying private
• 7:46
  jet for him to fund her lifestyle.
• 7:50
  And a whole lot of people said, listen, you, you're claiming to
• 7:53
  be Omo Babolo, you're claiming that your dad is a billionaire.
• 7:57
  So why would you just be paying school fee if it was in America,
• 8:01
  they will calculate what you're earning and that is what would
• 8:04
  determine the Child Support that you're going to pay.
• 8:07
  So it is not about you claiming to be Omo Babolo, your dad is a
• 8:11
  billionaire and then your paying just school fees for a child
• 8:15
  that Sophia has every right to make demands from.
• 8:19
  Davido Sophia stopped her child from visiting their delicate
• 8:26
  family because she said she's a single mother.
• 8:28
  She's the one doing everything, she's the one being there for
• 8:31
  her child, she's doing everything.
• 8:32
  So why would she want her child to be associated with their
• 8:36
  delicate family just for photo OPS?
• 8:42
  So now Davido is fighting for custody.
• 8:47
  According to him. He said he wants 5050.
• 8:50
  He wants for maybe Christmas. The imade will visit him for
• 8:57
  Christmas or New Year or Easter or depending on the occasion
• 9:02
  that the family is having or even holiday, let's say Easter
• 9:06
  holiday or Christmas holiday or the summer holiday.
• 9:09
  They will have to decide on where the child is going to go.
• 9:12
  And Sophia is saying that she cannot leave her child with
• 9:18
  their daily case because if I drowned on their watch, she said
• 9:26
  she's not going to risk it. And personally listen, Sophia
• 9:33
  has a point because her daughter is still is going to be a
• 9:36
  teenager. And as we all know, the video is
• 9:39
  always surrounded with group of guys.
• 9:43
  Forget it. You can trust your friends, your
• 9:48
  family, your relations, but you don't know what they can do,
• 9:55
  especially in that regards. And for the fact that they were
• 10:00
  all in the house when if I drowned is an indictment on
• 10:05
  their delicate family. So looking at that aspect 1 can
• 10:12
  understand why Sophia is saying that she doesn't want her child
• 10:16
  around their delicious family. She doesn't.
• 10:20
  So there's there's no going. She doesn't want her to maybe go
• 10:23
  for a week or go for however much the video is asking for.
• 10:30
  And right now in court, there was a blowout because the lawyer
• 10:34
  had mentioned the same issue of ifying of Davido not being a fit
• 10:40
  parent to handle a child. He's always busy.
• 10:44
  He's always in the studio, He's always on someone's live stream.
• 10:48
  He's always visiting one person or the other.
• 10:50
  He's always attending events. So Sofia is arguing that when
• 10:54
  would he have time to actually supervise his their daughter?
• 11:01
  It is OK to visit your child one or two hours, take her out, do
• 11:06
  photo shoots. According to Sophia it is OK but
• 11:12
  for her to release her child to go or their child because at the
• 11:16
  end of the day they made the child together.
• 11:19
  She is refusing and now the video is saying that he is no
• 11:23
  longer going to fight for Imadi. At least they've been to court.
• 11:30
  The court's documents are there. If she grows up, she can see
• 11:34
  that he tried. He tried to get custody and
• 11:39
  Sophia because the video withdraw the case after his son
• 11:44
  was also brought into the mix. So she is celebrating online
• 11:49
  dancing, just being, you know, being Sophia mood.
• 11:56
  So what would you do? This is a very dicey one because
• 12:06
  I say parents, let's say you, you're in that situation where
• 12:12
  one of the parents had lost a child.
• 12:17
  Because it's negligence. You can't tell me anything.
• 12:21
  It's it's negligence. If you have a pool in a house
• 12:24
  and you have a toddler, you have to do childproof.
• 12:29
  You have to make sure that that child is is safe and secure.
• 12:34
  If you're going to get 10 nannies, you have to get 10
• 12:36
  nannies to do that. And for the fact that that
• 12:39
  happened, I don't think any courts would would not take that
• 12:45
  into consideration. And we can sit down and be
• 12:50
  emotional about it and say that Sophia is throwing low Blues,
• 12:54
  bringing up a fine, but that is how she's going to win the case
• 13:00
  in court. Emotions are not involved.
• 13:04
  Facts and arguments are what you can use in winning your case.
• 13:13
  So if you're a parent or you are in Davido's shoes, what would
• 13:17
  you do? Would you give up or would you
• 13:21
  continue taking care of the child, continue providing for
• 13:24
  the child, hoping that the parents, Sophia in this case,
• 13:28
  would come around and say, OK, you've been doing all these
• 13:31
  things. Let's I visit you for Christmas
• 13:35
  or for Easter or for summer holiday?
• 13:38
  Or would you just give up completely like they we do and
• 13:42
  not provide any financial support for that child because
• 13:47
  you have been refused access to not just a Maddie but to Sofia's
• 13:53
  Gucci according to Sofia? What would you do?
• 13:57
  Let me know what you think. Would you give up or would you
• 14:01
  dance like Sofia to say that I won, I won, I won, I won
• 14:06
  happiness. The only loser here is the
• 14:12
  child. It is not a video.
• 14:14
  It is not Sofia who thinks she won.
• 14:19
  It is the child. Let me know what you think.
