I Want A Daughter But Have Three Sons – Actor Deyemi Okanlawon

Popular Nollywood actor, Deyemi Okanlawon has opened up about his experience as a father to three boys.

He also talked about how he wanted a daughter that would steal his heart but he is still hopeful.

He said;

“I told my wife that I only have men inside me and I have the energy for them. Especially now that my wife is out of town with the baby and I’m left with the boys, we’ve been giving each other gbas gbos,” he said in between laughter.

“When we found out that we were having a baby, I wished it was a girl but I realised that ‘man, she’s just going to steal my heart and my time and I won’t be able to take my eyes away from her.’ When we found out it was a boy we were like ‘Okay, God knows what he wants but never say never,” he said.

Teju Babyface also asked the actor about the cost implications of having three children.

“Listen, there’s the kind of money that you’d have that the number of children you want to have won’t be a problem. If you have assets worth $10 million and you’re generating 5-10 per annum, how much do you want to spend on kids? Why are we limiting ourselves? It’s fun raising beautiful human beings and guiding, teaching them and just loving them and being loved in return,”

Wunmi must do DNA test – Mohbad’s mother

Mohbad’s mother, Abosede insists that the singer’s wife, Wunmi must do a DNA test after she vowed never to carry out any DNA test on her son, Liam.

It would be recalled that Mohbad’s wife, Wunmi went on a ranting spree, vowing never to do any DNA test on her son while maintaining that nobody has the right to make her do the test.

Mohbad’s mother has noted, in a recent interview, that she cannot support her daughter-in-law until she carries out the test on Liam.

Furthermore, she urged Nigerians to stay out of the issue concerning the DNA test as it is their family matter, and not a public one.

She said …

“Nigerians should not be concerned about DNA issue, it was supposed to be a family issue. I insisted on it from the onset. It was Mohbad’s father that publicized the issue.

“Why are Nigerians hypocrites? By God’s grace, we shall get justice for Mohbad, even if his father’s intentions are different.

“Let Omowunmi do her part too. I cannot support her. I want her to do the DNA test.”
