Nollywood actor, Saheed Aranmolate has tendered an unreserved apology to his baby mama, Ronke Odusanya and the general public for requesting a DNA test of their daughter, Oluwafifehanmi.
It is no news that Ronke, a talented Nollywood actress has been at loggerheads with her baby daddy over a paternity scandal involving their child.
On the 10th of February, 2021, Saheed popularly known as Jago stood before the Court and requested a DNA test of their daughter to determine her paternity before proceeding.
The actress and her lawyer agreed to the request on the condition that the DNA fees and other bills be footed by Jago. The actress’ lawyer also pleaded with the court to ensure it is a court-supervised DNA test.
However, in December, Jago was declared wanted by a Lagos court over his continuous absence at every hearing.
Surprisingly, in a video shared on his Instagram page on Monday 7th February, Saheed clears the air about the paternity of their child, saying he’s sorry for requesting a DNA test.
Saheed said that Oluwafifehanmi is his daughter and expressed so much love for her, adding that what happened in the past made him take action.

In December 2020, both parties were enmeshed in a messy separation scandal that was broken by a popular Instagram gossip blog.
Among other things, the blog alleged that the famous actress ‘‘ruined the father of her child, financially by making him sell off his assets to fulfill her luxurious desires.”
Responding to the allegations, the movie star said in a post on her Instagram page that the rumours were untrue but she had chosen to remain calm as the truth would eventually reveal itself.
“While my silence will be taken for cowardice, I will be calm because the truth always reveals itself. I can defend myself but I won’t want my daughter to grow up reading such irritating and fact-less information. The court of social media has always been myopic and manipulative.
“Remember you did not make me, you cannot break me. Bank statements can reveal who has been receiving money from who and for what. Investigate before publishing. For the platform used for peddling such absurdity, seeds sown will surely germinate,”
the mother of one said at the time.
