Ilebaye’s Father Breaks Silence on Alleged Beating and Family Feud
A source first reported that Ilebaye Odiniya was beaten by her father when she went to check on her brothers at home. Police were called but her father allegedly refused to open the gate. Her father now shares his side. He says he backed her through her Big Brother Naija auditions and win, but felt she grew distant after the show. He claims she ignored his calls, refused his request to help him with medical funds and rejected his advice on philanthropy. He also criticises her lifestyle choices, including aesthetic procedures, and says arguments over her mother’s repeated departures from the home have fuelled tension. He admits he struck her in frustration over her disrespect and insists the matter with the police has been addressed. He has apologised to Nigerians and hopes the family can resolve issues privately moving forward.
