Mr Eazi’s father, Alexander Olukayode Ajibade, says he didn’t have a father-son relationship with the singer due to his service in Sierra Leone as of the time he was born.
Ajibade, said to have retired from the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) as a squadron leader, revealed this in a recent WhatsApp conversation with Mr Eazi.
The retired pilot explained that the development informed their inability to “blend” as the ‘Oh My Gawd’ the singer often saw him as an “intruder” at the time.
“I was in Sierra Leone when you were born. living in tent at Lungi Airport, 1990 to 1992. That was why we couldn’t blend (father/son relationship) until we moved out of PH. I was always/ intruder to you,” he wrote.
While reflecting on his recent trip to the west-African country, Mr Eazi, born Oluwatosin Ajibade, had on Tuesday shared the details on social media.
The 29-year-old singer revealed that he was curious to ask his father considering he “felt a certain attachment upon landing” in Sierra Leone.
“I found out that at the time of my birth My Dad was Serving in This Great country. Little wonder I felt a certain attachment upon Landing. Big love to all the people of Sierre Leone and see you more often,” he wrote on Twitter.
