Davido Seeks Joint Custody
On April 17, 2024, Davido filed a suit at the Lagos State High Court, identified as case number LD/1587PMC/2024.

Despite his past relationship with Momodu ending years ago, Davido has remained committed to Imade’s wellbeing, covering her school fees and other expenses.
Financial Support and Disputes
Davido has not only been paying for Imade’s education but also providing funds for the apartment where Momodu and Imade live. However, he accuses Momodu of making excessive demands to frustrate his efforts.
