A video has surfaced online, showing Fatai Odunsi, the alleged father of popular singer, Ahmed Ololade, well known as Asake, making a heartfelt plea for financial assistance after suffering a partial stroke.

In the emotional video, Odunsi claims that his son has abandoned him, revealing that their last encounter was in March 2022, around the time his health began to deteriorate.

Odunsi pleaded with Nigerians to come to his aid, saying, “Good day everyone, I’m the one that gave birth to Ahmed Asake the singer.

“The last time I set my eyes on him was March 2022 when my sickness started. If I call Asake, he wouldn’t pick. Please help me, it is your help that I need.”

The video has sparked varied reactions with many criticising the singer.

However, as the time of filling this report, Asake is yet to react to Odunsi’s allegations and request for assistance.
