Davido Withdraws, Loses Legal Custody Fight For Daughter
Seun EMMANUEL Afrobeats singer, Davido (David Adeleke) has announced his decision to discontinue the ongoing custody case involving his daughter, Imade, while voicing strong displeasure over what transpired during court proceedings. In a post shared on X late Friday, the artiste clarified that he never sought sole custody of his daughter, contrary to widespread speculation. According to him, his request was strictly for joint custody. “I never asked for full custody … I asked for joint custody. Nobody won, nobody lost but Imade … so I don’t know why some pple r celebrating. There’s nothing to celebrate,” he wrote. Davido further disclosed that he opted to withdraw from the case after what he described as an unacceptable turn during courtroom exchanges. He alleged that references were made to his late son, which he described as deeply distressing. “I’ve decided to drop the case because … until she brought out her last card! MY DECEASED SON! THAT’S A NO-NO! Lowest blow!” he stated. He added that his actions were driven by love and responsibility toward his daughter, stressing that his efforts would not go unnoticed in the future. “My daughter will grow up knowing I fought for her … let’s move on. One love!” he wrote. https://urbanexpresslive.com/davido-withdraws-loses-legal-custody-fight-for-daughter/The singer also took to his Instagram story to criticise the opposing legal team, alleging unprofessional conduct during the proceedings. “I disgraced you in the courtroom … I was teaching you your work … and then went on to mention my son. Like I said in the courtroom, I pray you never go through what my wife and I have ever gone through,” Davido wrote. These reactions followed earlier posts by Lagos-based legal practitioner, Maruf Muhammed, who had drawn public attention to what he described as tense moments at the Lagos State High Court, Yaba. “Davido in High Court, Yaba now! Come and see drama in court. The lawyer made 001 lose his patience during cross-examination o! Be you never so high, the law is above you,” Muhammed posted. When queried by another user about the matter before the court, it was clarified that the session related to the custody of Davido’s daughter, Imade. Imade was recently spotted spending quality time with her father following her triumph at a talent competition, a moment that delighted fans and reinforced the shared commitment of both parents to her well-being.
