Olori Kafayat Adedoyin Oyetunji, one of the wives of Oba Jimoh Olanipekun Oyetunji, the Ataoja of Osogbo land, has been slammed with a lawsuit for allegedly changing the surname of a child she had with her ex-husband.
The child’s father prayed an Osun State Customary Court located in Erin-Osun to stop the defendant from changing the girl’s name and demanded custody of the child.
He insisted that he is financially capable to provide for his child.
The petitioner explained that the Olori has denied him access to his daughter since 2015 when she was about 2-year-old. 
He said that he took responsibility of the child after he found out that she was pregnant but his wife got into a new marriage shortly after the baby was born.
According to the petition, “Kafayat Adedoyin birthed a girl child for me and I immediately took responsibility over the child right from the pregnancy stage. I named the child Nadirah Adeola Lawal-Oloki.
“The defendant entered into another marriage a few months after the child’s delivery and every effort to have access to my daughter proved abortive after an instruction that my daughter be put in custody of the defendant’s sister.
“The defendant has denied me access to my child since April 2015, when the child was about two (2) years old despite several calls and demands made by me. My daughter is now about ten (10) years old.”
He stated that he had tried to contact the defendant, her husband, the king and other third parties so he can have access to his child but his efforts yielded nothing.
He alleged that the defendant has changed the name of the girl from Nadirah Adeola Lawal-Oloki to Nadirah Adeola Oyetunji.
The President of the Court, K.B Adeyinka adjourned the case till December 14, 2022, for hearing.
