Asake Opens Up About Father’s Reckless Spending: "I Gave My Father 100 Million, Bought Him a House, and He Sold It"

 In a candid and emotional revelation, Nigerian musician Asake has opened up about the difficulties he has faced with his father, accusing him of reckless spending and making questionable decisions despite the artist's financial support.

According to Asake, he gave his father a staggering N100 million and even bought him a house, only for his father to sell the property and waste the money.

In a recent interview, the artist shared his frustrations with the media, revealing how his father’s actions have put a strain on their relationship and left him feeling unsupported, despite his efforts to provide for his family.

“I gave my father N100 million, I bought him a house, and he sold it,” Asake said, visibly upset. “I don’t know what he did with the money, but he wastes money like a young boy. Now, the world is laughing at me, saying that I’ve ignored him, but I’ve done everything I can to help him.”

Asake’s comments come at a time when the artist is at the peak of his career, enjoying massive success in the Nigerian music industry. However, despite his newfound fame and financial success, he seems to be grappling with personal struggles, particularly with his father’s financial decisions and the toll they have taken on their relationship.

In addition to the financial issues, Asake further claimed that his father’s spending habits have been reckless, and he even carries what Asake referred to as “olosho,” a Nigerian slang term for a prostitute or promiscuous woman. These comments have raised eyebrows, with many fans expressing concern about the ongoing family drama.

“I don’t understand what’s happening anymore,” Asake continued. “I’ve tried to help him, but it feels like nothing is ever enough. I’ve worked hard for everything I have, but my father is just wasting everything. He’s even involved in things I don’t approve of, and it’s not right.”

The situation has sparked a wave of reactions on social media, with fans sympathizing with Asake but also questioning the dynamics of his relationship with his father. Some have expressed concern about the emotional toll this situation may be taking on the artist, while others have suggested that Asake should set boundaries and focus on his own happiness, regardless of his father’s actions.

“I feel for Asake, because it’s hard when the people you love and want to help don’t appreciate your efforts,” one fan wrote on Twitter. “But at the end of the day, he needs to protect his peace. You can’t keep helping someone who keeps making bad decisions.”

Others have criticized Asake’s father, questioning why he would sell a house that his son had bought for him and waste the money. “If someone buys you a house, it means they want to secure your future,” another user commented. “But selling it and squandering the money is just selfish. Asake has every right to feel frustrated.”

Despite the ongoing tension, some fans have urged Asake to maintain his generosity and not let his father’s actions deter him from continuing to be a supportive and caring son. “At the end of the day, it’s his father, and he has done more than enough. But sometimes, family members don’t understand the value of what you’re doing for them,” one user noted.

Asake has not publicly commented further on the situation, and it remains unclear how the relationship between him and his father will evolve. What is certain, however, is that the artist is under immense pressure as he navigates the complexities of fame, family, and personal responsibility.

For now, Asake’s fans are left to watch and wait, hoping that the artist will find a way to manage his personal struggles while continuing to deliver the music that has made him a household name in Nigeria and beyond.
