Billionaire Mike Adenuga, Son, Paddy, Daughter, Oyin Fall Out!

…starve them off funds to set up private business.

There is a growing disquiet between respected Nigerian, Otunba Mike Adenuga and two of his children, Paddy, his favorite son and Oyin, his daughter.

Sources attribute this development to attempts by the children to move out of the world of the father without the latter’s consent.

Information made available to www.societynowng.com revealed that both Paddy and Oyin separately sought their father’s blessing and support to set up businesses of their own.

According to sources, the venture they had in mind would divorce them from the operations of their father’s business activities.

The celebrated face of multibillionaire enterprises such as Globacom, Con Oil and Equitoria Trust Bank was said to have refused their entreaties.

One of the torch lights of the Nations commerce is said to prefer his children eke their living within his web of businesses.

He was said to have been at logger head with his first son, Babajide for years over the latter’s refusal to tow the line. Unlike his siblings then, Babajide had opted to be independent of his father’s wealth and influence, staying back in America working as a D.J amongst other things to survive.

But he eventual succumbed to his father’s influence- came back home and joined one of his father’s businesses- Con Oil.

A compromise was later reached and Babajide left the company to kick start his own personal business.

According to a source ‘ for a man that loves to have his family around him and could go to such an extent, Paddy and Oyin coming to him and seeking permission to tow a path he fought to get his son back from was definitely out of it’

However sources claimed that both Oyin and Paddy refused to take the matter lying low.

They were said to have initiated moves contrary to their father’s desire- and in order to drive his point home, the Billionaire was said to have stopped allowances due to them.

And forbade provision of funds to them by the managers of his businesses.

Paddy while trying to act independently was said to have secured a loan facility that went sour from a ‘friend’. His forgiving father was said to have waded into the matter when anti graft agents were invited into the case.

But despite this, the favorite son of the man many want to be like still refuses to do away with the idea of moving out of his father’s world.

And this adamant still upholds the tension between them.

On her part, Oyin is said to be faring slightly better.

She is said to have kick started a cosmetic trade outside of the country.

Those in the know however insists the lady that made headlines with a ruse intending wedding to party sojourner, Wole Aboderin still needs funds ‘to make things happen’

The two children, sources claim, are inspired by the attitude and confidence their brother, Babajide used to embrace life outside of their father’s wealth and influence.

What those in the know of this development find mystifying is why the children of the man widely celebrated as an exemplary Nigerian and generous giver are so bent on moving outside his sphere of influence.
