“No child should be denied knowing and spending time with their father” – Pere Egbi weighs into Davido and Sophia Momodu’s child custody battle

Big Brother Naija ‘Shine Ya Eyes’ finalist and All-Star housemate Pere Egbi has weighed into music star, Davido and his first babymama, Sophia Momodu’s bitter custody battle.

Taking to the micro-blogging platform, he stated that no child should be denied knowing and spending time with and being a part of their father’s life. He added that not being cool with their father isn’t the child’s fault, and as such, the child shouldn’t be denied access to their father.

The reality star noted how some women are unbelievable.

“No child should be denied knowing and spending time with and being a part of their father’s life. You ain’t cool with the dad; that’s not the child’s fault. Some women are just unbelievable”.

Recall that since Davido moved on from Sophia with his now wife, Chioma, the two have been at war, with Sophia accusing him of financially abusing her and calling him a deadbeat father.

Few days before Davido’s traditional wedding to Chioma, Davido had filed a suit, seeking joint custody of his daughter, as he claimed Sophia was denying him access to her and extorting money from him. He claimed Sophia rejected his house offer and demanded he pay a N5 million monthly rent for her house, among others.

Responding to it, Sophia said she had an affair with Davido from 2020-2022 while he was dating Chioma. She debunked his claims of denying him access to his daughter, as she revealed that Davido had never made any attempt to meet with Imade and had abandoned her because she refused to have sex with him.

In new reports from their ongoing custody battle, Sophia had filed a 102-paragraph affidavit to oppose the singer seeking joint custody of their daughter. She cited reasons such as the death of his son, Ifeanyi, his controversial lifestyle and his love for using their daughter to get back at her as reasons for opposing him.

Reacting to it, Davido noted how Sophia is constantly bringing up the death of his child at any point to remind them of the tragedy that haunts them every day of their lives. The singer noted how his daughter would grow up to know she fought for him as he gave her custody of their daughter.
