Nigerian media personality and influencer Sophia Momodu, widely known as the mother of singer Davido’s daughter, Imade has sparked fresh debate online following a candid statement about financial responsibility in co-parenting.
Sophia Momodu, who rose to public attention through her association with the award-winning Afrobeats star and her active presence on social media, reportedly stated that as the mother of his child, Davido should be sponsoring her lifestyle and not just catering for their daughter.
In her words: “As the mother of his girl, Davido should be sponsoring my lifestyle and not just his daughter. He should be responsible for both our well-being”
According to the circulating remark, she believes he should be responsible for the well-being of both mother and child.
The statement quickly ignited mixed reactions among netizens. Some social media users expressed support for her view, arguing that the welfare of a child is closely linked to the stability and comfort of the primary caregiver. Others strongly disagreed, insisting that a father’s financial duty should focus primarily on the child rather than extending to the personal lifestyle of a former partner.
