Nigerian Afrobeats star Asake has sparked reactions online after surprising his mother with a brand-new Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG, reportedly worth over ₦200 million, in celebration of Ramadan.
Videos making the rounds on social media show the emotional moment the singer presented the luxury SUV to his mum. She was seen standing beside the vehicle, visibly excited, as family members and close associates cheered in the background. The Ramadan surprise has since generated massive praise from fans, many applauding the artist for honoring his mother in a grand way during the holy season.
The G-Wagon G63 is one of Mercedes-Benz’s most premium high-performance SUVs, known for its powerful V8 engine and luxury finish — making it one of the most expensive vehicles in its class in Nigeria.

Family Controversy Resurfaces
While many celebrated the gesture, the development has also reignited conversations surrounding Asake’s strained relationship with his father, Fatai Odunsi, popularly known as Malo.
Earlier this year, Odunsi publicly appealed for financial assistance, alleging that he had been battling health challenges and struggling financially. The situation sparked widespread debate online, with some accusing the singer of abandoning his father.
However, reports later suggested that Asake had previously supported his father financially and even bought him a car at some point after gaining fame. Sources close to the situation claim the relationship between both parties has been complicated for years, with long-standing family issues said to be at the center of the tension.
Asake has largely kept silent about the controversy, choosing not to publicly address the allegations in detail.
Despite the family drama, fans say the Ramadan gift to his mother reflects gratitude and appreciation for her role in his upbringing and career journey.
As of now, the singer has not released an official statement regarding his father, and reactions to the G-Wagon gift continue to trend across social platforms.
