Daddy Freeze’s Girlfriend In Custody Fight With Ex-Husband
Daddy Freeze’s Sunday ministration to his congregation was being clouded by fresh controversy by between his live-in lover, Benedicta Elechi and her ex-husband, Paul Odekina over custody rights for one of their children.
GreenWhiteGreen GWG reports that a Port-Harcourt court had last February slapped a N5 million fine on Daddy Freeze, real names, Mr Ifedayo Olarinde, after Mr. Odekina dragged him to court for allegedly committing adultery with his wife, Ms. Elechi at that time.
Now in a fresh development, Ms. Elechi has brought the adultery and divorce issue to fore again after she called out a Lagos private school for allegedly colluding with her ex-husband to release their child to him for holidays against a custody arrangement between the two.
The issue came to fore on Sunday morning apparently clouding a scheduled ministration by Daddy Freeze to his congregation online.
Daddy Freeze who has been famous for calling out some Nigerian pastors on the issues of money had scheduled a special ministration for Sunday morning themed “Oba Idun, The King of Bed Bugs.”
However, Ms. Elechi in a vituperation against Green Springs Secondary School, Lagos accused the school of colluding with Mr. Odekina to spirit their son away against the spirit of their agreement.
GreenWhiteGreen GWG, however, reports that the Port-Harcourt court had awarded custody of the three children of the marriage to Mr. Odekina with the assertion that she was unfit in character and behaviour to bring up children, citing her admission of adultery, her conduct during the trial and her statement that she would not recommend her conduct to her daughters.
Daddy Freeze’s girlfriend, Ms. Elechi, however, claimed that the case was still on appeal and as such not definitive, she said in a post on Instagram:
“Hello everyone, My name is Benedicta Elechi, I am the managing director of Tastebudz Eastern And Riverine cuisine Nigeria limited.
I want to use this medium to call the attention of well meaning Nigerians and concerned parents to Greensprings secondary school Awoyaya, were my son attends.
Despite my serving them with a duly filed motion for a stay of execution and appeal.
Greensprings School Awoyaya went ahead to release my son to my ex husband, Paul Odekina which, in my humble opinion, is an error in their interpretation of the law as concerns stay of execution and appeal. For a case which is only in the first instance and can go as high as the Supreme Court of Nigeria, before decisive measures can be taken.
In this instance, maintaining status quo should have been the norm, as against taking steps, that in my humble opinion seem very prejudiced and mischievous. To say that I am totally disapointed is an understatement. For a school that claims to be child centered.
Prior to this, we had a standing agreement on paper that my son was supposed to spend the Chrismas holidays with his Father while he spends the Easter holidays with me. I ensured that my son spent his Chrismas with his father.
But getting to my turn for the Easter holidays, my son was released to my ex husband Paul Odekina, despite letters from my legal team to the school, informing them to honor the appeal and the stay of execution.
None of the other schools my children attend made such an ignorant blunder, after receiving my application for a Stay of execution and Appeal, there by affirming my suspicion of a collusion between the management off Greensprings school and my ex husband Paul Odekina.
My question for Greensprings school Management, Awoyaya is:
1: For an organization like yours that has been in existence for over 30years, I believe you must have an experienced legal team to advise on the implications of a Stay of execution. Why did the Green springs school management choose not to maintain the status quo, despite being duly served.
The post from Daddy Freeze’s lover has not been given a response to by her former husband.
