Afrobeats star, Asake has admitted his father, Fatai Odunsi, to a specialist hospital in Ikoyi, where Chinese experts are currently attending to him, a source has confirmed. When Punch Sunday Scoop contacted one of Odunsi’s neighbours, who had earlier led our correspondent to Asake’s childhood home in Iga Idunganran, Isale Eko, during a visit last Saturday, she confirmed that Odunsi was receiving medical care at the unnamed facility.
Speaking in the local Isale Eko parlance (now translated into English), she stated, “Call me again around 6:30 pm. By then, I should have gone to their house, so I would be able to give you more information on what you asked.” When our correspondent reached out to her again around 7 pm, she confirmed the news, saying, “I have confirmed from his (Odunsi’s) wife that he has been admitted to a specialist hospital in Ikoyi where Chinese experts are currently attending to him.”
Also speaking to Sunday Scoop on condition of anonymity, a reliable source in the artist’s management described the entire saga as an oversight. The source confirmed that, to the best of his knowledge, Asake has started fulfilling his financial commitments to both his father and his daughter, Zeenat, but claimed to not know whether Asake would be resuming his relationship with Zeenat’s mother or provide any form of financial support for her.
“The entire thing was an oversight, but all has been sorted. He has reunited with his family and promised to give them whatever they would need to keep him going. To the best of my knowledge, he has begun fulfilling the promises he made and that is why there is now calm. I have no knowledge of what has or will happen to the baby mama; what I know is what I have told you”, the source said.
Recall that while updating the public on the situation of things, Odunsi, in a viral video disclosed that following their reconciliation, Asake committed to purchasing a new house for him and cover his medical expenses. He also confirmed that real estate agents were actively searching for a suitable property. He added that, Asake also agreed to take full responsibility for his 11-year-old daughter, Zeenat. However, he was silent on any discussions about Asake resuming a relationship with Zeenat’s mother or providing support for her.
