Asake Reunites With His Father After Viral Abandonment Allegations

Popular Nigerian singer Ololade Asake has reportedly reconciled with his father, Fatai Odunsi, months after their relationship became a subject of public controversy.

A photo shared online on Wednesday, January 8, 2026, shows the father and son together in a calm setting, suggesting that peace and understanding have been restored following their earlier fallout.

Background to the Dispute

The reconciliation follows a difficult period earlier in 2025 when Mr. Odunsi accused Asake of neglecting him during his recovery from a stroke. The allegation sparked widespread debate online, with fans and observers questioning the singer’s responsibility towards his family.

Steps Towards Reconciliation

According to sources close to the family, Asake has taken concrete steps to mend the relationship. He reportedly committed to covering his father’s medical bills and promised to buy him a new, luxurious home. These gestures are understood to have played a significant role in rebuilding trust between them.

Family Tensions Beyond His Father

Around the same time, Asake also faced accusations from his baby mama, Adijat, who claimed the singer had neglected their daughter, Zeenat, for several years after achieving fame. She alleged that she supported Asake financially during his university days at Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, through her thrift business, but was later abandoned.

In March 2025, Asake publicly reunited with Adijat and their daughter during the Flytime Music Festival, a moment many viewed as an attempt to heal long-standing family rifts.
