Popular Nigerian entertainer Promise Kelvin Anagbogu, professionally known as Lord Lamba, has responded to the controversy stirred on social media after his babymama and reality TV personality, Queen Atang, announced her engagement.
At the time of the engagement announcement, neither Queen nor Lord Lamba publically acknowledged any romantic involvement with each other.
Interestingly, shortly after Queen revealed her engagement to her long-time partner, David, Lord Lamba posted pictures of himself and his child on his Instagram account.
Addressing the online criticism, Lord Lamba explained in a private conversation shared by relationship expert Wale Jana on Instagram that the speculations regarding his daughter’s paternity prompted his online actions.
Lord Lamba refuted claims that he was trying to hinder Queen’s pursuit of happiness, emphasizing his preference for privacy regarding his personal life and family matters.
He said:
“There were rumours saying this child was for her husband to be they thought it was lordlamba because of her engagement. So I posted my child to let people know that she is my child, with the caption of her full name, I have always wanted my personal life private, which includes my family, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been a father figure to my baby girl even if things didn’t work out for both of us that doesn’t mean she is a bad person or I’m the bad person, but all I want is a proper upbringing for princess, it’s not her fault the mom and dad are not together so we owe that child the best life ever.”
