Sophia Momodu, the first baby mama of ace Afrobeats singer and record label owner, David Adeleke, professionally known as Davido, has said the Nigerian legal system does not protect women and children.
She also called out men who do not give financial support to their ex-spouse, after the relationship or marriages which produced kids had crashed.
Sophia made her thoughts known in a series of tweets she posted on her social media page on Thursday.
According to the popular social media influencer, there should be a “special place in hell for people who intentionally punish innocent children.”

Momodu asked why a man would force a woman to handle his fatherly responsibilities simply because the woman chose to leave and decided not to look back.
She wrote, “Financially bullying a woman into staying with you has got to be the most disgusting thing a man can do. Especially when children are involved.
“Only in Nigeria! The laws don’t protect women or children & the men just do the absolute most! My goodness, the whole system just stinks!
“Why should it be ok for a man to force a woman to handle his responsibilities as a father simply because the woman chooses to move forward & refuses to look back? Honestly, it’s time to soro soke because ‘weyre lo poju ni country yi’.
“This cannot be ok. This should not be ok. So many women are forced into silence because these men use other ignorant women to bully & force the women they’re tormenting into silence.
“The amount of women going through financial abuse & being forced into silence in Nigeria is staggering. Who speaks for these women? Who defends them? Why is it ok for women to keep going through this?
“The enabling, the scheming, the lies & false narratives… ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
“So many women have had to resort to suicide concerning this systematic oppression & the ones who chose to be strong for their children are considered stubborn or problematic. The crazy thing in all of this is that you’ll find fellow ‘women’ dehumanising these innocent women. Haba”
