- Isaac Fayose has made good on his word by fulfilling his promise of half a million Naira to Asake’s father.
- This comes after the man pleaded for financial support on social media, claiming the singer abandoned him.
- Isaac Fayose has now confirmed — with proof that he has sent the money.
Isaac Fayose, businessman and brother of former Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose, has donated N500,000 to Fatai Odunsi Adeshina, father of popular Nigerian singer Asake.
The donation comes after Fayose publicly called out Asake for allegedly abandoning his ailing father.
Fayose announced the donation on Saturday, stating that he had spoken with Asake’s father and had sent the funds to support him.
Fayose said:
“As I promised, we will take care of Asake’s father if he refuses to do so.
“I spoke with his father this morning, and he’s a very happy man. I prayed for him and sent N500,000 to support him.”

The donation follows a public plea for help from Fatai Odunsi Adeshina, who claimed that Asake had abandoned him since his health began deteriorating in 2022.
Odunsi, who has been battling a stroke, alleged that Asake has not been financially supportive despite his fame and success. He disclosed:
“I am Asake’s father. I gave birth to him. I gave birth to Asake, Ahmed, the singer. Babatunde Ololade Odunsin, Mr. Money. Since I had a stroke, I haven’t seen him. The last time I saw him was March 29, 2022. He doesn’t pick my calls when I call him. Please, I only need your help.”
Taking to social media to address the situation, Asake in a video sang his response. The singer who reportedly exited Olamide’s YBNL record label accused his father of trying to manipulate him, despite spending a lot of money.
