The broadcaster and media personality Daddy Freeze sits with the host of #WithChude host, Chude Jideonwo for one of his most revealing and unfiltered conversations yet. In this reflective session on faith, family, and public perception, Daddy Freeze opens up about his failed marriage, his strained relationship with his children, and the deep pain of being misunderstood. “My only pain,” he says, “is not being able to see my kids. I can’t even talk to them on the phone.” He remembers being asked to sit at the back of the church after his divorce, a moment that changed his relationship with religion and led him to question how faith communities treat those who stumble.
Far from controversy, this conversation reveals the man behind the headlines, thoughtful, emotional, and deeply self-aware. He shares how the collapse of his first marriage broke him, cost him work, and left him so emotionally drained that even the few jobs he got, he couldn’t do them well. He remembers being so broke that he couldn’t afford ten thousand naira for his daughter’s birthday cake. Yet, in the midst of loss and public criticism, he found friendship in unlikely places, even with people like Hushpuppi, when everyone else turned away.
In his signature mix of boldness and conviction, Daddy Freeze also challenges religious orthodoxy, sharing his unconventional views on Christ, the church, and prosperity preaching. This is Daddy Freeze, not the rebel, not the heretic, but a man telling his truth, still believing, still searching, still becoming.
