\u00a0\u00a0 Chief Magistrate O. A. Ogunbowale of an Igbosere Magistrate\u2019s Court in Lagos has granted custody rights to Eniola Adenuga, over his 16-month old daughter. But his babymama, Maggie Ogun, a pharmacist, has sought the court\u2019s leave to appeal the order, The Nation reports \"image\"<\/a> Ogun\u2019s objection that Adenuga cannot take adequate care of the child, was dismissed and Eniola was granted an overnight access to the girl every fortnight from 8 am on Saturday to 12 noon on Sunday, until the case is determined. But, Ogun, through her lawyer, Mrs Marian Jones of the International Federation of Women Lawyers (FIDA), has applied to the magistrate for leave to appeal the ruling. She is also praying for an order suspending the ruling\u2019s execution, as well as an order praying for a stay of proceedings pending the appeal\u2019s determination. In his supporting affidavit in support of his motion for custody, Eniola, who works at Conoil Producing Ltd, said he started an amorous affair with Ogun in October 2013. He said she informed him in 2014 that she was pregnant with his child, following which he took full responsibility for their welfare. Adenuga said he paid for her antenatal care at Reddington Hospital, gave her N100k monthly and took her to London where she gave birth. He said he paid the bills worth \u00a322,000, purchased a first class return ticket for her, and accommodated Ogun and her mother in his Cadogan Gardens, London home. He said Ogun returned to Lagos in January, 2015, three months after delivery, and denied him access to the child. His words: \u201cI was denied access to see my daughter on the ground that I was not interested in marrying her. I sought her understanding in this regard and reminded her of the fact that we had both agreed to end the relationship as it was heading to nowhere.\u201d \"image\"<\/a> He said Ogun\u2019s mother insisted that he would only see the child on the condition that he married Ogun. According to him, on one occasion that he was allowed access to the house, he observed that Ogun left his daughter in the care of a security man who doubled as houseboy\/nanny and her grandmother, a septuagenarian. \u201cI was shocked at the unhealthy, unhygienic and unsafe environment in which my daughter was being brought up,\u201d he said, adding that he sends N200k to Ogun monthly for their upkeep. Adenuga said he enrolled his daughter at a \u201cworld-class\u201d cr\u00e8che where he paid N600k per term. He said he was only able to see his daughter when he organised a birthday party for her, and when he took her and Ogun to Dubai on holiday. \u201cOn getting back to Nigeria, she reverted to denying me custody and access to my daughter,\u201d he told the court. On why he wants custody of the child, Adenuga said: \u201cThe respondent is unwilling to create time needed to care for my daughter physically, emotionally and mentally and I reasonably believe that my daughter currently lacks motherly attention.\u201d But Ogun, in her counter-claim, said she never denied Adenuga access to his child. She said from last May to October, she took her daughter to his mother\u2019s residence in Victoria Island every weekend. She said she also took the daughter to the applicant\u2019s father\u2019s house on Banana Island at least thrice a week and sometimes slept over. According to her, problem arose when Adenuga\u2019s mother demanded that she and the daughter spend two weeks monthly at her residence. Ogun said her family refused because she was not married to him. According to her, she was trying to resolve the issue amicably when Adenuga, on October 13 last year, came to her home in company of a policeman demanding that his daughter be produced, and in the process assaulted her mother and damaged her phone when she tried to record the scene.\u200e She denied keeping her daughter in the care of a security man, saying: \u201cDuring my working hours and prior to when my daughter started attending cr\u00e8che, she is left in the care of my grandmother and my nanny.\u201d Ogun also denied that her daughter is being brought up in an unhygienic and unsafe environment. She claimed she pays her daughter\u2019s medical bills at Reddington Hospital, adding that Adenuga was not solely responsible for her daughter\u2019s welfare. Ogun said a doctor certified her daughter to be fit and healthy and that despite being born with a low birth weight of 2.7kg, her current growth pattern was more than satisfactory.\u200e Besides, she said the only time her daughter was ill, she was diagnosed with an infection common to children when they start crawling and teething and was promptly treated. \u201cI have never denied the applicant access to my daughter, rather, he wants custody. I don\u2019t believe it is in my daughter\u2019s interest that the applicant be granted custody of my daughter,\u201d she said. According to her, Adenuga \u201cis not suited to cope with the demands of having full custody of a 16-month old female child.\u201d The Nation<\/p>\n
