Asake’s Family Speaks Out Amid Controversy Over Father’s Health and Alleged Neglect

The family of Afrobeats sensation Asake has finally addressed the ongoing controversy surrounding the singer and his ailing father, Fatai Odunsin, urging him to take responsibility.
The issue gained public attention after a viral video showed Asake’s father seeking financial assistance while battling a stroke.
The video sparked widespread reactions, with many questioning the singer’s role in his father’s well-being. Asake later responded in a TikTok video, further fueling the debate.
In a new development, the family has now spoken out, not only calling on Asake to support his father but also accusing him of neglecting his alleged 11-year-old daughter, Zinat, and her mother. They expressed their readiness to undergo a DNA test to confirm Zinat’s paternity.
“Asake, always remember that your father will always be your father. Come and take care of your father, also your 11-year-old daughter and your babymama. Even if the whole of Nigeria donates N1 billion to Asake’s father, the N1 million Asake will donate will make Papa Asake feel much better. Asake, come and build a house for your father so he can be collecting rent,” the family stated.
The controversy has sparked debates among fans, with some defending Asake’s silence while others insist that he should take responsibility. Asake is yet to make an official statement addressing these latest allegations.
