- Tunde Phoenix, former manager of Nigerian singer Ahmed Ololade, has accused him of neglecting his ailing father, who is battling a stroke.
- Phoenix plans to launch a GoFundMe campaign to support a man’s treatment, following Fatai Odunsi’s public request for financial assistance for Asake’s medical condition.
Tunde Phoenix, the former manager of renowned Nigerian artist Ahmed Ololade, better known as Asake, has publicly criticized the singer for allegedly neglecting his ailing father, who is reportedly suffering from a stroke.
Phoenix has pledged to initiate a GoFundMe campaign to assist with the father’s medical treatment. This announcement follows a plea for financial support made by a man named Fatai Odunsi, who claims to be Asake’s father, in a video that has been widely shared.
In the video, Odunsi introduced himself as the biological father of Ahmed Ololade, stating:
“Good day, everyone. I am the biological father of Ahmed Ololade, known as Asake. The last time I saw him was in March 2022, when my illness began. If I call Asake, he doesn’t pick up. Please help me; I need your assistance.”
While Asake has not yet addressed these allegations, his former manager, Tunde Phoenix, has expressed his intention to meet with the ailing father to understand the reasons behind the alleged estrangement. He also indicated his plans to establish a GoFundMe campaign to cover Odunsi’s medical costs.
In a series of social media posts, Phoenix stated: “One by one, God will reveal who they truly are. These are no longer my words. Go and pick up your father. We don’t care if he left when you were a child. In fact, I believe that man over anything you might say.”
“If you don’t, we will take on your responsibilities for you and conduct a full interview with him to reveal the truth the public deserves to know.”
“You are a public figure. Get a PR girl to put a statement together—or I will. P.S.: PR girl is a vibe. I’d definitely date her; she has a good heart but keeps bad company.”
“Operation GoFundMe for your father. Please help us locate the old man. His son refuses to listen and abandons those who once helped him.”
“Even if they left you, should you act like them when God has blessed you beyond your wildest dreams? A man’s heart reveals everything. Please, let’s find this father and get him the help he needs. These children have audacity.”
In response to Phoenix’s post, a wave of concerned individuals inundated the comment section, expressing their opinions regarding the developing situation.
