Kingsley Ikenna, the father of Super Eagles defender Calvin Bassey, has made an emotional public appeal, calling on Nigerians to help intervene so he can regain access to his children.
In his plea, Ikenna admitted he may have wronged his wife in the past and asked for forgiveness, saying, “Please, I am begging Nigerians to help me. I am calling on everyone to come to my aid. Wherever I may have wronged my wife, I sincerely ask her to forgive me. I am human and not perfect.”
Speaking on the pain of being separated from his children, he added, “All I want is access to my children. They are my flesh and blood, and not being able to see them has been very painful for me.”
He further revealed that he has been enduring the situation quietly, saying, “I have been suffering quietly and carrying this pain alone.”
Ikenna also appealed directly to his wife and children, urging them to forgive him and allow reconciliation. “I am appealing to my wife and my children to please find it in their hearts to forgive me. I am asking Nigerians to help plead on my behalf so I can reunite with my children. I am truly going through a lot in silence,” he said.
