Male Kids Will Always Go Back Looking For Their Fathers After Bein Taken Away By The Mother - Osaije Steve

The emotional reunion between Olakunle Churchill and his son after nearly a decade of separation continues to stir intense reactions online. While many Nigerians applauded Tonto Dikeh for allowing the call and praised forgiveness as a path to healing, others took a more troubling angle.

One controversial comment read: “If u born man pikin and ur wife carry am go, no worry urself, he must find him papa come by fire by force, is a just a matter of time.”

The remark suggests that a male child will inevitably return to his father, framing it as destiny rather than a choice shaped by love, care, and responsibility. Critics argue that such thinking minimizes the emotional impact of parental absence and reduces a child’s complex needs to cultural fatalism. Instead of romanticizing eventual reunion, many believe the focus should be on active co-parenting, accountability, and creating healthy relationships in the present—not waiting for “fire by force” reconciliation later in life.
