Renowned gospel singer Tope Alabi has found herself at the center of a paternity scandal after relatives of Ayomiku’s biological father, Mayegun Olaoye Oyegoke, publicly expressed their outrage over being excluded from her wedding.
Reports indicate that Olaoye, also known as Olalekan Oyegoke, was heartbroken after watching wedding footage online, which showed Soji Alabi playing the fatherly role that he was allegedly denied. Sources close to the family claim that Olaoye had long been estranged from his daughter, despite his attempts to reconnect over the years.
Before marrying Soji Alabi, Tope Alabi was in a relationship with Olaoye in the late 1990s while living in Akure, Ondo State. Their relationship led to the birth of Ayomiku in 1997. However, the romance ended, and Tope Alabi moved on, taking Ayomiku with her and raising her under the guardianship of Soji Alabi.
In November 2020, Olaoye came forward, claiming to be Ayomiku’s biological father and alleging that he had been denied access to her for more than two decades. Despite his public declaration, Tope Alabi has neither confirmed nor denied the allegations, choosing to remain silent on the matter.
The recent wedding incident has reignited the controversy, with critics accusing the gospel singer of deliberately erasing Olaoye from their daughter’s life. Many took to social media to call out the singer, questioning why the biological father was not acknowledged or invited to the ceremony. Outraged observers argue that Ayomiku deserves to know the full truth about her lineage.
Sources reveal that Olaoye is devastated that another man was given the honor of accepting his daughter’s bride price while he was reduced to a distant onlooker. The backlash has intensified online, with many urging him to publicly reclaim his role and set the record straight.
As social media discussions gain momentum, the public is waiting to see if Tope Alabi or Ayomiku will address the growing controversy. Will this family matter be resolved privately, or will it continue to unfold under public scrutiny?
