Sophia Momodu, the first baby mama of Afrobeat star, Davido, on Monday, has been slammed for hinting to change the surname of her daughter, Imade Adeleke, to Momodu.
Recall that Momodu took to her Twitter page weeks ago to rant about men financially bullying a woman into staying with them, adding that the issue with the financial abuse has been going on for about a year.
In a fresh post on her Snapchat on Monday, the entrepreneur disclosed that she can’t wait to change her daughter’s last name from Adeleke to hers, Momodu.
The mother of one insisted that it is only right to do this considering that she now plays a mother and father role to her daughter.
She wrote: ” “Can’t wait to change her last name… I still think Momodu is 👌 as I’m Mom and Dad.”
Following the development, some Nigerians took to social media to berate the entrepreneur for planning to change her daughter’s name despite Davido being alive and reportedly taking care of his child.

@so_towolawi wrote: “A good name is better than gold & silver…..the name “Adeleke” resonates well within elite circle & has lots of goodwill compared with “Momodu”. You can choose to remain Momodu however let the innocent girl enjoy the goodwill that comes with her good surname!”
