The mother of the late Ahmed has broken her silence following viral allegations made by her daughter-in-law, Tosin Omolola, who recently claimed that her husband's family began hara$$ing her just eight days after his d3ath.
According to reports, the grieving mother strongly denied claims that a widely circulated clip showing her 62-year-old husband, Omolola David, locking a building gate was an attempt to prevent Tosin from accessing her matrimonial home.
Speaking in Yoruba, she insisted that the viral footage was not recent and was not recorded at the property left behind by her late son. According to her, the video was filmed in 2024 at their family residence, two years before the current dispute.
Providing her own account of events, the deceased's mother alleged that the family stepped in during her son's illness because they believed Tosin was not taking proper care of him.
"Shortly after Ahmed fell ill, my husband and I decided to bring him and our grandchildren to our home because Tosin wasn't taking good care of him," she claimed.
According to her, Tosin later came to the family residence and caused a scene. She alleged that her husband only locked the estate gate to prevent the situation from escalating, and that the moment was what appeared in the now-viral video.
The family's response comes amid an ongoing legal dispute that has attracted public attention following intervention by human rights activist Harrison Gwamnishu and the Lagos State D0mestic and $3xual Violence Agency (DSVA).
The matter later led to the arrest of Tosin's father-in-law, Omolola David, by the Lagos State Police Command.
On Friday, July 31, David was arraigned before a Lagos State Magistrate Court on a two-count charge bordering on alleged threat to life and a$$ault. Although the court granted him bail, he remains in police custody after reportedly failing to meet the bail conditions. He is expected to regain his freedom once the conditions are fulfilled.
