The family of Nigerian singer Asake has once again turned to social media, making a heartfelt plea for financial assistance to support his ailing father.
This latest appeal comes after an earlier request for assistance in treating his father’s chronic stroke.
This time, a woman speaking on behalf of the family is urging Asake to step up and support not only his ailing father but also an alleged 11-year-old daughter and her mother.
Emotional plea to Asake
In a now-viral video, the woman passionately called on the singer to take responsibility. She emphasized that no amount of public donations could replace the impact of Asake’s personal contribution.
“Asake, always remember that your father will always be your father,” she said. “Come and take care of your father, your 11-year-old daughter, and your baby mama. Even if the whole of Nigeria donates N1 billion to Asake’s father, the N1 million Asake donates will make Papa Asake feel much better.”
She also urged him to build a house for his father, arguing that it would provide a steady income through rent collection.
“Asake, come and build a house for your father so he can be collecting rent,” she added.
DNA test considered
Beyond financial support, the woman revealed that the family was considering a DNA test to determine whether Asake is truly the father of the alleged child. The claim of paternity has added another layer of controversy to the situation.
While the identity of the woman making the plea remains unclear, her message has sparked intense discussion online. Many are questioning whether her demands are justified, while others believe personal family matters should not be aired publicly.
Public reaction and debate
The renewed appeal has divided public opinion. Some social media users sympathize with the family, arguing that Asake, as a successful musician, should take responsibility for his father’s well-being. Others believe the situation should be handled privately, rather than through repeated online appeals.
One camp insists that Asake has a moral duty to care for his sick father, especially given his financial success. They argue that traditional values place a strong emphasis on children supporting their parents in times of need.
On the other hand, some believe that public pressure is unfair. They question why the singer is being put in a position where his personal responsibilities are turned into public debates. Others doubt the claims being made, especially regarding the alleged child, emphasizing the importance of verifying paternity before making demands.
Asake remains silent
As of now, Asake has not responded to the latest appeal. The singer, known for his hit songs and rising international success, has not publicly addressed his family’s claims or financial expectations.
With the story continuing to trend online, fans and critics alike are watching closely to see if he will break his silence or take any action regarding his father’s health, the alleged child, and the ongoing controversy.
