DELE MOMODU HITS BACK AT DR OLA BALOGUN


The filmmaker was against the attitude of Davido’s babymama Sophia Momodu and also the role played by her uncle Dele Momodu such that he called for the condemnation of the Momodus.

The senior Momodu has responded to Dr Balogun’s letter condemnation revealing in his statement that there is more to Dr Ola taking side than we may know. Read his statement below:

It is disheartening that while many well-meaning Nigerians have stepped in to intervene in the face-off between music superstar Mr David Adeleke, aka Davido, and the mother of his baby Ms Sophia Momodu, my cousin, a senior citizen and film-maker, Dr Ola Balogun, has chosen to cast aspersions on me for reasons best known to both of us. In a well-circulated comment he made in newspapers and on social media, Wednesday January 6, 2016, Dr Balogun maliciously attacked Sophia and I without caring to find out what led to the present debacle. 
I had the highest regards for Dr Balogun and had always responded to his calls and text messages to my London line most times. I wish to apologize to him publicly if I have not been able to attend to his certain demands but it is regrettable that he would retaliate through this vengeful manner. Though I bear the same title of Bashorun with my late mentor Chief Moshood Abiola, I’m just an ordinary journalist of very modest means. Let me assure Dr Balogun that elders like him have brokered peace between the families and by the grace of God we should have good news sooner than later.
Dr Balogun should please bury whatever animosity he has against me and join others in reconciling the families instead of pouring petrol into the conflagration.
