Charly Boy apologizes to daughter following conflict on her sexuality as lesbian
Popular actor, Charly Boy has penned an open letter to his daughter, Dewy Oputa following a misunderstanding after coming out as a lesbian.
The feud started when the self-acclaimed Area fada pleaded support to the LGBTQ community while adding that he accepted his daughter, Dewy, with open arms when she came out as a lesbian.
Dewy, however, called him out afterward for lying and sending her packing after she disclosed her sexuality as a lesbian.
In a lengthy post via Instagram, Charly boy apologized to his daughter for his actions.
He wrote;
“My Dear Dewy, I know the last few days may have been tough for you flowing from my Friday post “For Parents Only” on my Instagram. I apologize if my post rubbed you the wrong way, for this I am deeply sorry, my bad. Forgive me.
But Honestly, I was talking to parents trying to get them to understand that they-can only give good advice or put their children on the right paths, but the final forming of a person’s character lies in their own hands. I came into parenting the way most of us did — knowing nothing but trying to learn everything, becos, who no go no fit know.
The journey of parenthood is an emotional roller-coaster, filled with happiness, sadness, worries, frustration, pride, excitement and much more. Parenting is an amazing adventure.
When people dey yab me say you dey tackle me for social media, I just dey laff. I dey laff bcos Na so I tackle my papa before I collect my independence. Lion no fit born goat. Never forget that the Oputa’s are very special people, and in you I see me.
Since Saturday morning I have received thousands of phone calls from parents and young people who feel disconnected with their parents. Their testimony has been quite insightful. I was only able to offer a listening ear and soothing words, but I feel taller because our story inspired thousands.
That’s a good thing. My darling, I promise to allow you tell your story like I have been able to tell mine. I respect your perspectives and I understand. I brought you all up as Global Kids and not as timid village champions.
Let’s just go back to the friendship we have been working on. I love you and no one can contest, not even you. My Charly Girl Princess Dewy Daddy’s Totori.”
