Davido drops child custody case after court drama

Nigerian superstar Davido has opened up about his heated custody battle with ex, Sophia Momodu.

The singer addressed reports of his courtroom outburst, clarifying he only sought joint custody, not full custody.

He clarified his intentions and why he’s dropping the case:

1. “I never asked for full custody. I asked for joint custody.”
2. “Nobody won, nobody lost, but Imade… so I don’t know why some people are celebrating. There’s nothing to celebrate.”
3. “I’ve decided to drop the case because when I was spanking that lawyer in the courtroom. She would get so frustrated because I normally finish school. I was finishing her… until she brought out her last card! MY DECEASED SON! THAT’S A NO-NO! Lowest blow!”
4. “My daughter will grow up knowing I fought for her. Let’s move on. One love!”

Davido revealed he’s dropping the case, accusing Sophia’s lawyer of taking the battle too far.

“When I was spanking that lawyer in the courtroom… until she brought out her last card! MY DECEASED SON! THAT’S A NO-NO! Lowest blow!”

He added, “My daughter will grow up knowing I fought for her. Let’s move on. One love!”
On Instagram, he also directly called out Sophia’s lawyer:

“I disgraced you in the courtroom. I was teaching you your work; you couldn’t even take it, and then you went on to mention My Son. Like I said in the courtroom, I pray you never go through what me and my wife have gone through ever. And you were still smiling, smirking. You are a wicked human being. You’re the worst lawyer ever. I beat you in court!”
