Oluyinka Davids holding his daughter |
"Yes I started it
all, got my daughter registered, got her a professional photographer,
personally worked and also employed a PR person who worked tirelessly for her
on the contest. I knew she would win. I often told her so. I sometimes even
rehearsed how she would be announced the winner and yes she did win, all the
glory to God. Myself and my wife had a serious misunderstanding which led to
temporary separation but I never ignored or denied the fact that the baby she's
carrying is my daughter. I am still responsible for her upkeep even till now.
She called me and said "Your daughter Morireoluwa Davids needed a
two minute video for the next stage of the competition". That was when I
knew she made it to the third stage. And I was like so because she needs a
video and her father is a cinematographer, that is why I am getting to know my
baby had gone this far in a competition I registered her. Meanwhile shortly
before this, during my daughter's first birthday, I ordered a big customized
cake, clothes and toys for her. She turned the person I sent to deliver the
stuff. I was embarrassed and deeply hurt. She was so rude and mannerless. She
said so many things to me. I still have her message saved. So I told her to go
and get the video done elsewhere for our baby because she only had to tell
me because some of my staff she asked without my permission turned her
down" he said
Oluyinka said what his
wife did by bringing another man to represent him at the finale was clearly a
case of impersonation & blamed the organizers.
"Impersonation.
That is what it is and it is punishable under the law. I had a misunderstanding
with my wife so she probably thought she could get at me by taking someone else
along as the father of my child, not realizing the consequences. I blame PZ!
Why? Because they claimed she told them she was having a misunderstanding with
the father of the baby and when eventually someone showed up, they didn’t
confirm before they addressed him as Mr Oluyinka Davids as published in
The Nation Newspaper February 9th 2015"he said
Oluyinka
said the man used to impersonate him at the PZ baby competition was the husband
to the younger sister of his wife
"It feels terrible
to be impersonated. Especially because I know the guy. His real name is Dehinde
Olayokun. He is married to Boluwatife Olayiwola Olayokun who happens to be my
wife's youngest sister. She and her immediate elder brother, Dayo Olayiwola,
with some boys had harassed and beaten me up in my house which is one of the
reasons my wife and I are having a misunderstanding"he said
Oluyinka says his lawyer is working to seek legal redress.
His wife, Mrs Funmi
Davids when contacted via phone told the magazine...
"It is better you
sleep around than the cheap job you think you are doing. If you ever call my
number again, you will regret your life".
Meanwhile the management
of PZ Cusson speaking through its brand manager, Seun Ayeni, say they see the
matter as a domestic one and do not want to get involved
"We have spoken to
the lawyer of the biological father of the baby, Mr Oluyinka Davids and we do
not want to get involved in their domestic issues. Our lawyer is already handling
the issue and we are okay with that" he said
