Zlatan is currently facing backlash because of a video that went viral, in which his son got scared by street kids, and called them bad boys.
His baby mama Davita Lamai took to Instagram to address the situation, while defending her baby daddy.
In her post, Davita Lamai wrote;
”When it’s your own child please allow
them to get down from the car in that traffic and greet those boys one by one! Same boys that will mount your car, damage your car and bang on the windows if you give them chance. As you give 1 money the rest will come and violently harass you.
Even me as an adult if I’m driving alone and those boys crowd my car in traffic and start looking through the window l am scared. What exactly is the teachable moment there? SMH
My son is the most compassionate and caring and friendly boy ever to the point that
when we finally permanently moved to lagos I’m the one that had to make him scared of people because he will follow anyone and
everyone.
That’s the reason why he’s scared
now because I had to put that fear in him to protect him until he’s old enough to know for himself who is good and who is bad.
Till then everyone is a stranger and BAD unless mummy or daddy say otherwise. Please it’s not about being compassionate towards those less fortunate it’s about safety in a country we all know is extremely insecure.”
Recall that in the video that went viral, Zlatan was riding in a car with his son, when they were approached by street kids.
His son got scared, and jumped away from the window, screaming that there were a lot of bad boys outside.
This video stirred a lot of reactions, with netizens calling out Zlatan for encouraging classism.
