Someone posing as Anuoluwapo begged Davido to verify her paternity in the message. It said, “I humbly request a DNA test to prove my identity from Mr. David Adeleke. My dad and I are taking this test. I’m interested in it. After reading this post, kindly take my plea into consideration, sir.
In his response on X (previously Twitter), Davido denied the allegations and advised Labinjoh to cease communicating with him. “After five DNA tests… she dey crase… her and her mom better leave me the f**k alone and go find her papa,” he added. At his father’s urging, he continued, the tests were carried out, and all the results were negative.
In response, Labinjoh shared private conversations between Davido and her daughter.
She said the musician had disregarded her after finding out she was pregnant, and they had first met at a bar in Ibadan where she worked as a waiter. She refuted Davido’s assertions that he had undergone several DNA tests, stating that just one was conducted in a lab and that the results were purportedly fabricated. According to her, Davido paid the technician who performed the test.
In an attempt to find a solution, Labinjoh stated that, given Davido’s US citizenship, she plans to have the US Embassy oversee an impartial DNA test.
Reactions on social media have been conflicting in the interim. While some have urged Labinjoh to move on, others have urged Davido to perform a fresh DNA test in the child’s best interests. For the sake of openness and the girl’s welfare, social media star Abisoye Michael, also known as Oyemykke, pleaded with the artist to comply.
This controversy is not brand-new. When Labinjoh initially brought up the paternity question in 2017, she claimed Davido was the father of her daughter, who was three years old at the time. Davido was allegedly excluded from the first DNA test in 2014, but Labinjoh has contested the results, claiming the test was tainted. When she requested a second DNA test in 2018, the conflict reappeared.
Labinjoh denied interviews when Saturday Beats approached her lately, claiming threats and worries about her and her daughter’s mental health. She reaffirmed that just one test had ever been performed and that “there were no five DNA tests.”
Nigerians are closely monitoring the ongoing online fight, which highlights the delicate junction of celebrity, paternity claims, and social media scrutiny.
