Afrobeats star Davido’s father, Adedeji Adeleke, has disputed paternity claims made by his son and claims DNA test results show that 12-year-old Anuoluwapo is not the singer’s child.  ,
Anu deserves to know her father, according to Mr. Adeleke, who made the remarks at a press conference in Lagos on Wednesday.
He claims that five DNA tests have been conducted to disprove the paternity claim, but none have actually demonstrated otherwise.
The singer has never denied having a child, according to Davido’s father, who spoke to the audience.
He recalled how he supported her despite the findings that showed that Anu wasn’t Davido’s child.
He claims to frequently send money to pay for Anu’s education and care. Mr. Adedeji explained that whenever money came in, the aunt would return receipts to him along with items that had been purchased for the 12-year-old.
The Osun-born businessman claims to have managed the school costs up until last year while maintaining contact with Anu’s aunt. He claimed that Davido was unaware of this.
He claimed, “I did not talk about it with David or anyone else.”
Ayra Starr, Davido, Wizkid, and Tiwa Savage are also nominated for the 2026 MOBO Awards.
In the middle of January, Davido and Anuoluwapo’s long-running paternity dispute resurfaced.
She posted a request for a new DNA test on Instagram. The teenager cited classmates’ years of bullying, mockery, and mental distress as evidence against claims that Davido is her father.
Davido has, however, denied paternity by claiming that five DNA tests at various hospitals have negative results.
If Davido’s allegations aren’t removed, the singer threatened to file legal action and imprison her mother in a leaked chat.
Davido claimed that Davido’s father demanded that the DNA samples be screened for accuracy.
Ayotomide Labinjoh, Anu’s mother, has refuted Davido’s claims that he had taken multiple tests.
Only one DNA test was conducted, Labinjoh claimed.
