The Digest:

Ms Lami Calista, mother of BBNaija All Stars winner Ilebaye Odiniya, has denied her father's claims that she has never financially assisted him. In a chat with LIB, she revealed that her ex-husband Emmanuel Odiniya's anger stems from Ilebaye refusing to hand over all her cash prize or give him N50 million. She stated that Ilebaye gave him N7 million for medical treatment in India in 2023, N5 million last year, and an extra N3 million when he said it wasn't enough, totalling over N30 million. She also said Ilebaye pays school fees for her two younger brothers.

Key Points:
  • Ilebaye's father demanded N50 million from his daughter's winnings, revealing financial entitlement.
  • The reality star spent over N30 million on her father's medical treatment, contradicting his claims of neglect.
  • The father's drug allegations against Ilebaye and her brother have been debunked by the mother.
  • The mother's testimony shifts public sympathy back toward Ilebaye in the ongoing family dispute.
  • The timing of this revelation, amid the father's media campaign, aims to restore Ilebaye's damaged reputation.
