A paternity controversy involving Afrobeats star David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, resurfaced on Thursday after a 12-year-old girl, Mitchelle Anuoluwapo, publicly requested a DNA test to establish whether the singer is her father.

Taking to Instagram, Anuoluwapo shared an emotional post detailing the psychological toll the unresolved paternity claim has taken on her life.

She revealed that she has endured years of bullying, beginning at the age of six, with classmates ridiculing her claims that Davido is her father.

She wrote, “This year I become a teenager. My mom and grandma have always educated me on being a responsible teen. No drugs, alcohol, bad company and bad behavior. Today I drafted a letter I wrote from the depth of my heart not with help from my relatives.
