There are allegations that legendary singer King Sunny Ade has been abducted by his son.
The singer’s daughter, Damilola Esther Adeniyi, raised the alarm in a series of posts on her Instagram page on Monday.
While raising concerns about her father’s whereabouts and well-being, she expressed fears that he may have been kidnapped.
Damilola, who didn’t provide detailed evidence, accused some individuals close to his father, including her stepbrother, who doubles as his manager, of kidnapping him.

Legendary Nigerian singer Ebenezer Obey has again refuted rumours circulating online claiming he had passed away.
Earlier, unverified reports suggested that the legendary singer had died in Lagos.
However, Obey took to his social media pages to refute the claims, declaring, “I am alive and strong”.
The music icon dismissed the rumours as “false and misleading,” urging the public to ignore such misinformation.
The singer emphasised that, according to God’s plan for his life, his time had not yet come.
Obey, who recently celebrated his 83rd birthday, also expressed gratitude to those who reached out to check on him.
“It is fake news that started a few hours ago that Evangelist Ebenezer Obey has passed on to glory. It is a pure lie. I am alive. And that is not what Jesus has written about me. What Jesus has written about me is only what will manifest upon my life. I am alive, says the Lord. And do not believe any fake news, I am alive. And I dey kampe,” he said.
“My time is not up yet. Until when Jesus says my time is up, nobody… Everything they are saying… (any purported evil over me will not come to pass). It is Yoruba. Thank you to all the people who have been calling. I am alive.”
