Weeks after welcoming a baby girl, a popular actress, Bukola Adeeyo, has denied the news making the rounds about the father of the baby, who some people claimed is actor, Odunlade Adekola.
Rumor gathered that Adeeyo, a prominent actress in the Yoruba-speaking movie industry, has a close relationship with Odunlade. They have both featured in movies together.
There had been talks about their closeness even among their colleagues in the industry with some people suggesting that there was more to their closeness than meet the eye
Rumours became rife that Adeeyo was pregnant late last year, and there were insinuations that Odunlade was responsible for the pregnancy, a claim, which was blatantly denied by Odunlade.
Adeeyo, who has been in the news for weeks over her refusal to reveal the identity of her baby’s father, said she is not too young to have a child, even as she insisted she would not disclose the father of her baby.
The actress confirmed that her relationship with Odunlade was noting but “a boss and worker and not husband and wife,” insisting that Odunlade was her boss.
According to her, “I want to seize this opportunity to clear the rumour flying around that Odunlade Adekola is the father of my child. Hell No! Odunlade is my boss in the movie industry. Nothing of such ever came up between us. The intimacy between us remains that of a boss and worker and not husband and wife.”
She stated further that, “the truth of the matter is that Odunlade is not the father of my baby. I won’t indulge myself in any paternity fraud or paternal discrepancy for any reason. I am not too young to have a baby and I don’t see anything wrong in not disclosing my husband’s identity. I will keep the reason to myself.”
