A Nigerian man claiming to be the former nursery school teacher of popular singer Ahmed Ololade, better known as Asake, has spoken out amid the ongoing drama surrounding the artist and his family.
The controversy erupted when Asake’s father publicly appealed for his son’s help, revealing that he was battling a stroke. In response, Asake shared a video online that many interpreted as mocking the situation rather than directly addressing his father’s plea.
As the story gained traction, more details surfaced, including claims that Asake’s mother abandoned him at the age of three, leaving him in his father’s care.
Amid the discussions, Asake’s alleged nursery school teacher shared insights into the singer’s upbringing. In a post on Facebook, he recounted his experiences with Asake and his father, whom he described as a kind and caring man.
He claimed that Asake’s mother left to marry another musician, Musibau Alani, also known as Omokekere, while his father single-handedly raised him. The teacher further revealed that Asake’s mother occasionally visited him in school but did not have primary custody.
Detailing Asake’s early education, the teacher said:
> “One fact about Malo, Asake’s father, is that he was a very nice man—not just to his son but to everyone, including me as his alleged nursery school teacher. Malo never walked alone; he was always surrounded by people.”
> “He was a caring father who raised his son alone after Asake’s mother married Musibau Alani, also known as Omokekere. Although she visited him in school occasionally, Asake lived with his father, not his mother.”
> “My brother, Musibau Olawale Ajose, was the proprietor of the school. We taught Asake how to write ABCs and three-letter words. When he turned five, my brother enrolled him at Ebute Ero Primary School.”
> “To those in Mushin making claims they know nothing about, fear God. I know Asake inside out, as well as his parents.”
> “Hazan Sars was his senior in nursery school, while Hazan’s younger brother, Shakiru, was in the same class as Asake. If you don’t know the real story, stay out of it and leave the matter to us islanders.”
The post quickly gained attention online, sparking debates in the comment section. Many social media users weighed in, urging Asake to reconcile with his father.
Online Reactions:

Akinlabi Ibraheem Alabi: “The resemblance is undeniable! May the Almighty restore his health.”
Kosoko Damilola Ksk: “The man is wearing a Woro carnival jersey. Woro is an annual carnival in Lagos Island.”
Taiwo Bukola: “Asake, please forgive and forget. We all offend God, yet He forgives us. Do it for the sake of your parents.”
Ettu Mohammed: “I don’t believe he’s thinking straight. What about his childhood friends? Does he still remember them?”
Neither Asake nor his mother has responded to the claims, but the ongoing discourse continues to generate buzz across social media.
