Raymond Dokpesi’s daughter, Homto has revealed Juju musician King Sunny Ade is not the father of her son contrary to wide speculations.
There have been widespread rumours regarding the paternity of Homto’s son that Sunny Ade is the father.
However, Homto Dokpesi denied the rumours stating that the JuJu was an acquaintance of the family who always performed at family gatherings.
She also refused to reveal the identity of her son. According to her , her son knows his father and that was all that matters.
She said:
“King Sunny Ade had done a song in honour of my dad years ago. I think I was about five years old at the time and my name was mentioned in the song. I still get people saying to me, ‘Oh, this is the face of Homto from that KSA Song’
“King Sunny Ade always plays in all of our events that I can remember. Even as far back as my dad’s 35th birthday. He performed at my village in Agenebode for my grandfather’s burial. He performed at my siblings’ weddings and even on my traditional wedding day. I met KSA through the influence of my dad.
“I do not know KSA personally aside from dancing to his songs on stage.
“Everyone is always looking for answers to their questions. Even though the father of my child is not in our lives, a decision he made which I choose to respect, my son knows who his father is, and the father knows he has a son. What more can I say? I would rather keep my private business private.”
