Story Highlights
On February 14, 2026, Davido’s associate, Otunba, claimed Sophia Momodu’s anger stems from the singer’s refusal to marry her. Otunba alleged Momodu is upset because Davido ghosted her to reunite with his wife, Chioma, and subsequently stopped funding Momodu’s luxurious lifestyle amid their ongoing child custody battle.
The heated custody battle between Nigerian music star Davido and Sophia Momodu has taken a messy turn. Fans and observers continue to trade words over the welfare of their daughter, Imade. The dispute recently intensified as both parties exchanged legal fire in court.
This latest development follows a period of high tension and public outcries from both camps. Many followers feel exhausted by the constant back-and-forth between the former lovers. The situation remains sensitive as it involves the private life of a minor.
Otunba exposes the “real reason” for the dispute
A close ally of the singer, known as Otunba, broke his silence on the matter via X.com. He offered a blunt perspective on why the relationship soured so quickly. Otunba suggested that the current hostility is rooted in personal rejection rather than just parental concerns.
He claimed that Momodu’s bitterness began when Davido shifted his focus back to his wife. According to the associate, the singer ended a temporary reconciliation with Momodu to fix his marriage. This move reportedly left the mother of one feeling abandoned and resentful.
”Sophia Momodu is a sha—less and e—l woman, all of this started after he ghosted her and started dating Chioma back.” Otunba wrote.
Claims of luxury and failed marriage hopes
The associate further alleged that Momodu enjoyed significant perks during their brief period of closeness. He noted that she frequently used the singer’s expensive cars and lived a high-end life. The tone of his message suggested that financial changes fueled the current fire.
Otunba listed three specific reasons for Momodu’s alleged anger toward the Afrobeats star. He cited a failed marriage expectation and the withdrawal of financial support as primary triggers. These claims mirror the drama seen when Davido slammed Sophia Momodu’s lawyer over deceased son leverage during their court proceedings.
”During that period Sophy and Davido were having their thing she was always cruising with his cars and never remembered she can’t trust Imade with him”
The associate added.
”1) He refused to marry her. 2) She and Davido started seeing each other after he and Chi broke up one time, he ghosted her and went back to Chi. 3) He stopped funding her luxurious lifestyle.” Otunba declared.
The public remains divided as the legal tussle continues to dominate headlines. Some support the singer’s right to see his child, while others defend Momodu’s cautious stance. This conflict recalls the moment Davido withdrew the custody case after a series of heated social media posts.
