Malaika and UNILAG graduate daughter Alimot

Sulaimon Alao Adekunle, known to Fuji music lovers worldwide as Malaika, is celebrating the graduation of his first daughter, Alimotu, from the University of Lagos.

“I give big kudos to my parents. It is now I know what it takes to be a parent, it’s not easy,” said the man who dropped out of school due to lack of funds.

“For my daughter to be graduating today, I thank Almighty Allah. Though she still has younger ones, I am very happy because many people started but not everyone was able to finish.”

The Unstoppable hitmaker hopes his insurance graduate daughter will proceed for a postgraduate degree after her National Youth Service.

His daughter expresses her gratitude for all he has done.

“He has also been there for me every time I need him. He cuddles me, advises me and encourages me when I am down. He also gears me up and also creates time for me despite his busy schedule,” she said.

Alimotu, 22, is, however, not interested in becoming an entertainer like her famous father.

Hear her: “I like entertainment, but it is just that my dream in life is not going to that direction at all.

“For now, I want to still further more on my education, and work in a reputable company and later set up a venture for myself.”
