"Asake is a celebrity, that’s why he needs to be very cautious about his actions. If he had done the needful this wouldn’t have gotten to this stage. Random person can get away with stuffs like that but is a public figure. Moreover your dad is yours no matter what."

Asake's behaviour, effect of broken home - Asha

Singer and music producer, Asha Gangali, reacted to Asake's father's claim of single-handedly raising the Lonely At The Top singer.

He noted that what the singer's ailing dad was going through was not unusual with children from broken homes. He noted:

"It appears Asake is closer to his mum, while the news from the extended family, acquittances and their neighbours is that the father was responsible for raising him. However, this behaviour is not unusual for children that grow up in broken homes. It could be very traumatic, some suggests that perhaps the mother must have spoiled Asake's mind against his dad, there are many theories."

Asha also reacted to Asake and his father making up after the call out.

"Ultimately Asake has the responsibility to discern what's wrong or right and choose to do the right thing , which he has done by reaching out to his father, he apologised and he's now fulfilling his obligations."
