Eniola Adenuga, the son of Glo & Conoil billionaire, Mike Adenuga is in a messy custody battle with his baby mama, Maggie Ogun over their 16 month old daughter.
According to The Nation, the court granted custody to Eniola and gave overnight visitation rights to Maggie, but she isn’t taking the decision thus appealing the ruling of the court.
The details of the whole drama started when Maggie told Eniola she was pregnant for him in 2014.

Adenuga said he paid for her ante natal care at Reddington Hospital, gave her N100,000 monthly and flew her to London where she was delivered of a baby girl on October 23, 2014.
He also claims to have paid medical bills worth £22,000, purchased a first class Lagos-London return ticket for her, and accommodated Ogun and her mother at his Cadogan Gardens home in London.
Eniola Adenuga also went on to say that Ogun returned to Lagos last January, three months after her delivery, and since then denied him access to the child.
“I was denied access by the respondent to see my daughter on the ground that I was not interested in marrying her. I sought her understanding in this regard and reminded her of the fact that we had both agreed to end the relationship as it was heading to nowhere,” he said.
According to him, on one occasion that he was allowed access to the house, he observed that Ogun left his daughter in the care of a security man who doubled as houseboy/nanny and her grandmother, a septuagenarian.
“I was shocked at the unhealthy, unhygienic and unsafe environment in which my daughter was being brought up,” he said, adding that he sends N200,000 to Ogun monthly for their upkeep.
But Ogun, in her counter-claim, said she never denied Adenuga access to his child. She said from last May to October, she took her daughter to the applicant’s mother’s residence in Victoria Island every weekend.
Hmmm
For the sake of their child, they need to be able to put their feelings aside and co-parent.
