Taking to his Instagram page, Momodu shared a video of his visit which has caused a stir on social media.
He wrote:
“Spent time most of today with the Adeleke family in Lagos…. May God almighty continue to bless and protect them…”
His visit with a camera crew, however, struck many as insensitive as some argued that his purpose wasn’t for condolence but for media coverage.

Mrs Jones: “The family should not allow camera vid or pic taking when people come and visit them, did this person seek permission before posting? Before what is not supposed to get out to the public will be leaked by videos from visitors. This is invasion of privacy. Am sure this person couldn’t wait to quickly post this vid and caption it…after posting this and caption… WHAT NEXT????”
