They’re also no doubt respected celebrities whose names have come to stay in the history book of successful entertainers because of their enviable profiles in the showbiz world. Regardless of this appraisal they are still single but with child/children for reasons no one can ultimately define. Enquirer’s faith Irabor peeped into the lives of some of our celebrities who are single fathers. Enjoy the compilation.
CHIDI MOKEME
He is one of the hottest ladies men in the movie industry. The tall and ganging actor is without sentiments one of the celebrated single fathers in the showbiz circle. Chidi who’s also into selling of sex toys is still very much single despite the fact that he has what it takes to be called a husband. The Igbo born powerful dresser has a seven years old son from one of his girl friend’s whom he eventually did marry not as he’s said to have found his missing rib in one Chidi.
PETER P-SQUARE
Peter is the twin brother of Paul of P-SQUARE fame. The dark skinned entertainer is unarguably another celebrated single father in showbiz courtesy of Lola Omotayo whom he denied until the pregnancy Story sprang up.
The Wahala Dey entertainer is regardless of the pregnancy that yielded his first son, not leg ally married to the fair skinned lady though they seem to be working towards the direction as they are said to still be in love with each other.
FRED AMATA
Fred Amata, the ex-husband of the Inside Out presenter, Agata would not have been on this list if he hadn’t impregnated the embattled erstwhile Pyramid Club owner and actress, Ibinabo Fiberesima who bored him a kid outside wedlock after leaving his legal wife. The handsome Nollywood actor cum director joined the league of single fathers when he agreed to take responsibility of another child from yet a different woman from his wife. Fred Amata who’s presently the father of the last baby of the ex-convict, Ibinabo Fiberisima is still a single father before the eyes of the public because there’s nothing legalizing him and the Miss Earth president who many also believed wrecked his marriage with Agata.
SAIDI BALOGUN
Atlanta actor, Sidi Balogun is of course on of the celebrated single fathers in showbiz. Even before he married his controversial wife. Fathia, the fair skinned actor, we gathered had fathered a child out of wedlock. The producer of award winning Modupe Temi, the first ever 2 cast movie in Africa was married until his marriage to Faithia Balogun a popular Yoruba actress crumbled two years ago. The outspoken actor, according to reliable source has moved on and is in another relationship with an Edo babe whose name is Omoh since he could not resolve the differences between him and the mother of his two kids, Khalid Aliya.
BENEDICT JOHNSON
His name would not have been included on the list of Showbiz single fathers if he had married his baby mama whom he impregnated three years ago. His name is Benedict Johnson and he’s one of the middle-class actors in the movie industry.
The tall, gangling dude is as you read this still very single though he has a very beautiful baby girl who’s about three years old. The Kingdom Apart actor seems to be enjoying every bit of bachelorhood because he’s been linked on several occasions with different ladies including his name sake, Mercy Johnson who some even mistaken to be his relative during their tour last European in 2008 courtesy of Isaac Izoha, a UK based film maker.
FEMI BRAINARD
The Contractors 1 & 2 actor, Femi Brainard is unavoidably yet another celebrated showbiz single father and this Enquirer can authoritatively disclose. The soft spoken actor who shuttles conveniently between the Yoruba and English industry courtesy of his versatility is presently a single father of two lovely kids no thanks to his crashed marriage some years ago. Femi according to close friends might be bidding bachelorhood goodbye once again and this is because he’s seen a lady that would step into the shoes of his wife.
ERNEST OBI
If the latest news trailing one of Nollywood’s talented actors cum director is anything to depend on, then Igbo born lanky dude would any moment from now be settling down for real but that notwithstanding, the light skinned controversial actor is, until then going to remain a single father. Yes Earnest Obi is for now a single father though the child is a fruit from his ex-wife, so she’s his step daughter.
INNOCENT IDIBIA
If there are awards or accolades for the most recklessly gifted man with the fruit of the womb, it will go to no one but him. He’s perhaps the most controversial among all the single fathers in showbiz. Multiple award winning artiste, innocent Idibia otherwise known as Tuface is yet another bachelor who has children call him daddy. He has Pero, Sumbo, and Annie Macaulay all as his babies’ mamas without marrying anyone of them. The African Queen crooner was recently said to have done a secret marriage at last though he later came out to debunk it. The defunct Hypertek boss has also been romantically linked with a lot of ladies which means he’s enjoying the game as a single father.
WASIU ALABI PASUMA
The name of successful showbiz personalities who are single fathers would be incomplete if the name, Wasiu Alabi Pasuma is excluded and this is an unarguable fact. Popularly called Pasuma wonder by fans, he’s yet another dude in the entertainment industry who seems to be enjoying bachelorhood and it might not be unconnected to the reason he’s single at over forty years. The ex Celebrity Takes Two dancers, is the father of four lovely children who are all based aboard though he never married any of their mothers. There are insinuations that he might never married again since he’s got four children that are doing well aboard…. Recently, one of his daughters stepped out with in an event in Lagos and it might interest you to know that, Pasuma has a 21 old year of daughter at 41.
LANRE TERIBA
Otherwise known as Atoise. He’s a handsome guy that any lady would wish to have as a husband but he seems not obliging them maybe due to his fame and big wallet but prefers being a single father to a married man that is why his name is on the list of showbiz single fathers. The entertainer according to those who know him by the back of their hands is not thinking marriage because of the way he’s been linked with some of his female band members as well as church members aside some society big chics. Atorise is a father of four wonderful children though not many know this about him and the children we also both lived with one of his baby mamas in Ikorodu, an outskirt of Lagos.
This is the league of ladies that are bringing up their children without a father; the single mothers
Genevieve Nnaji
It is fair to say Nnaji lost her virginity at a very young age. But then, even her worst critics can’t deny the fact that the actress hit stardom not long after. Yet, her name, fame and status as a single mother has not in any way weighed down her career. Nnaji, who has been linked with many guys – the latest being D’banj – has managed to keep her daughter off the prying eyes of the public. Nnaji has never mentioned the father of her child, but some people say her daughter is living with him in the US.
Monalisa Chinda
Not a few were stunned when fair-skinned Rivers State-born actress, Monalisa Chinda, parted ways with her husband of few years, Victor Dejo-Richards. The union produced a beautiful child, Tamar, who is obviously loved by both parents. However, Chinda has taken custody of the child since she broke up with her former husband.
Eucharia Anunobi
Popularly known as the ‘Sharon Stone’ of Nollywood, Eucharia Anunobi joined the list of single mothers when her marriage to Charles Ekwu broke down completely a few years ago. The marriage produced a son, Raymond, who is currently living with the actress. If speculations are anything to go by, Anunobi is taking care of the kid’s welfare all alone, with no help from her former beau.
Shan George
The mulatto actress is certainly not short of suitors. The lady is always in one relationship or the other. Twice married, George is still very much in love with her two boys, whom we hear school abroad.
Ibinabo Fibresima
She added to her two kids from different men, another baby that came out from her relationship with actor, Fred Amata. The ex-beauty queen and former night club owner is obviously a lover of kids and she makes motherhood look good with the way she looks at all times, especially with her kids.
Grace Amah
She is the newest member of the single mothers’ league. She is enjoying her status well. Some say the much talked about marriage to the father of her son is now a mirage, while some others believe that Amah will soon walk down the aisle with her man. In any case, her fans are waiting… and watching.
Annie Macaulay
BLACKBERRY BABE: She wouldn’t have been on the list, but some might argue she should since she is an actress. After all, Macaulay featured in some Nollywood films recently. Her role in Nollywood didn’t get her to become a celeb, but her relationship with award winning singer, Tuface Idibia, got Macaulay, not only fame, but a child, Isabella. Macaulay is yet to become Mrs. Idibia, but it is widely believed that Tubaba doesn’t joke with Macaulay’s daughter among all his children from the other women.
Lola Alao
She used to be married to an American-based dude. The marriage crashed like a pack of badly stacked cards, but not before bringing out a daughter, who is currently staying with her mother.
Bukky Wright
Even at her age, Bukky Wright is a diva. Her marriage, which produced two kids, went under but the woman came out of it looking radiant and enjoying her life as a mother and as an actress.
Omawumi Megbele
She had a whirlwind romance with her producer Dr. Frabz before their sudden split. Omawumi is a proud mother of a bouncing baby girl and the father is a Lagos big boy and the owner of the Lagos club Zamunda.
