I really do wonder about men who father children and disappear leaving them to the elements.

As well as women who abandon children that they gave birth to.

Pure evil.

I think the search was way too late.... But I hope even if the dad is late, he would get to meet a good family not golddiggers or "bad-charactered" family. I really felt his story.

It's so sad,he must really wish to meet him but unfortunately his dad is probably already dead. I guess he knows this too but he's in denial.


He must be dead except he never returned to this zoo

Quite a lot of mixed race in Leeds, Liverpool and Manchester who don't know who their fathers are. I met one while schooling in Manchester and we were able to trace his roots to Abeokuta. I pity this man!

You should not have bothered to quote the kiddo. Many of these tribalistic nincompoops here are just children that are still struggling to their post-ume or in their 100L in Universities

That Arch Oluyemi Odeinde RIP whom you say is his uncle was born six years after him on March 25th 1960 at UCH Ibadan (i.e. University College Hospital) and so would be his half brother actually

Architect Oluyemi Odeinde's and possibly same for the 68 years old Mr Paul Bolton father, is Architect Olufemi Abayomi Odeinde, who ed away in 1981, due to injuries sustained in a motor accident

Architect Oluyemi Odeinde ed away peacefully in his sleep in the early hours of Thursday March the 18th of 2021 and would have been 62 years old if still alive. He was born on March 25th 1960 and was interred on March 25th 2021. His dad and grandad ed at 59 years old, but he broke that jinx

Mr Paul Bolton, should start with getting the correct spelling of the surname of his father (i.e. Architect Olufemi Abayomi Odeinde) right first, then realise that he has plenty of the Odeindes residing in the UK

What about his community in Nigeria? Any luck with searching it out?

It’s so painful as so many like this gentleman are in the dark about their roots. What historical information about their generations can the hand down?

Maybe his father’s house wallows in hardship and he is supposed to be the saviour.

It is very sad really.

Goodluck. . . it is good to know your root as a man.
Bravetunde: 2:34pm On Mar 06, 2022
I'm glad you are brave enough to look for your dad,only that one I respect you because most afonjas are cowardss.
Now Incase you come to Nigeria be very careful of Yorobadd land, saying more than 99 percent are killers is no longer news.
Just be very careful

She and her family rejected the child because he is black. Racism was at its peak back then. It amounts to shame and stigma in the society. Inter-racial marriage or birth was frowned at and discouraged, he was merely an unfortunate victim.
Some humans are mean.

how can a mother reject her child?
How was she able to live her life everyday knowing she rejected her child?

His deceased half brother Architect Oluyemi Odeinde's personal house is at 10B Talabi Street in Lagos

All the Odeindes are middle class stock, no case of hardship

Did you read the story?
The man may not even be aware that his girlfriend was pregnant.

It not too late even if his father was now dead. At least he can trace his roots to a certain place and know his distant relations or even his step brothers and sisters

I read the story.

He was abandoned by at least one parent, if not both of them.
