Nigerian singer, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has sparked mixed reactions after failing to publicly celebrate the birthday of his first daughter, Imade.
OsunDaily News reports that the singer’s babymama, Sophia Momodu took to her Instagram page to shower love on her daughter on the occasion of her 8th birthday.
She wrote: “It’s my daughter’s 8th time around the sun…. It’s also Mother’s Day today & I couldn’t be more thankful. God has been too faithful to fail. Happy Birthday, Imade! I love you so much kiddo”
Sophia also organized a small birthday party for Imade which was attended by a few friends including Tiwa Savage’s son.
However, some netizens expressed surprise at how Davido failed to share Imade’s picture on his social media pages and didn’t organize an elaborate party for her.
While some claimed Davido isn’t ready to publicize his children yet following the loss of Ifeanyi, others claimed it might be due to Sophia’s recent outburst on financial bullying.

Fine the boy that died isn’t yours but this guy doesn’t want to put his kids out there yet , not even sure he is in the mood for a party yet . Another child don do birthday and we didn’t even know and no one fought or came to social media to make noise . David isn’t one person to ignore his kids and which we all know about except if we wanna be sentimental. But he is doing through so much. A child’s death isn’t a joke .
“Sophia was the insensitive one to post something about the boy and Nigerians dragged her to pull it down then . She doesn’t need to have this I don’t care attitude. If she has money let her make noise on her kids birthday and do wahever she wants . As far as I am concerned she is a Babymama . She isn’t even his favorite Babymama , Chioma is no longer a baby mama , chioma is now a wife . Sophia please relax and stop dragging unnecessary attentions to this guy . Everything doesn’t have to come to social media”

If it was possible for him to instruct his baby mama’s not to post the kids they might not listen to him thereby thinking he’s trying to protect Chioma’s feeling’s but nonetheless let’s keep them in our prayers”
