Sophia Momodu Breaks Silence on Co-Parenting, Says She Gets No Financial Support From Davido

Media personality Sophia Momodu has given a clearer picture of her co-parenting journey with afrobeats star Davido, revealing that she has shouldered most of the responsibility for their daughter, Imade.

Addressing conversations circulating online about her and the singer, Sophia took to Instagram to counter what she described as misleading narratives. She noted that despite public assumptions, she has not been receiving child support from Davido and has been functioning as Imade’s “primary caregiver” for several years.

“Social media has become an integral part of our lives, and unfortunately, it has also become a platform for spreading false narratives,” she wrote in a lengthy statement. According to her, she woke up to posts that were “intentionally targeted at my lovely daughter and trying to portray a false image of her well being.”

Sophia said her first instinct as a mother was emotional, but she chose to speak out calmly for her daughter’s sake. She reassured the public that Imade is thriving. “It’s important to note that my daughter is a happy, healthy, and well rounded child. Anyone who has met her in person can attest to this.”

Clarifying the financial responsibilities involved, she explained that while she has taken care of nearly all Imade’s needs, the singer’s parents have offered consistent support by covering her school fees for the last three years.

“To further emphasize my commitment to my daughter’s well being, I have been her primary caregiver for the past five years,” she added. “I have handled all of her expenses except for school fees, which her paternal grandparent has kindly covered for the past three years. I have not received child support from her father, but our child knows no lack.”

Sophia also highlighted that she has never blocked Davido from having a relationship with their daughter. “I have never denied her father access or a relationship. Instead, I prioritize her safety and structured schedules,” she said, expressing gratitude that Imade enjoys a loving bond with both parents.

She ended her statement with a plea for the public to refrain from dragging her child into online narratives. “Moving forward, I kindly request that my innocent child be left out of false narratives and stories. Let’s channel our energy towards things that are more profitable and healthy.”

Her comments have sparked renewed discussions about co-parenting, privacy, and the pressures faced by families in the public eye.
