Drama unfolded at the funeral of late gospel singer Omije Ojumi when her children were unexpectedly confronted with their biological father.
uring the burial, a man claiming to be their father placed an emotional phone call, revealing he had been searching for them for years but was allegedly blocked by their mother.
In the viral video, he said, “I’m your daddy and I’ve been looking for you… I spoke to you through the school line and told you not to tell your mummy because she wouldn’t allow me talk to you.”
The daughter did not take the call directly; a family member held the phone on speaker, allowing her to hear him as emotions ran high among mourners.
The incident has sparked mixed reactions online, with many questioning the timing and sensitivity of the revelation, while others sympathise with the children caught in a difficult and emotional situation.
Omije Ojumi was laid to rest after a prolonged illness amid tributes and tears.
