“I have never given my mother money before” – Daddy Freeze reveals, claims there is no blessing in giving rich parents money

Controversial media personality, Daddy Freeze has told his followers that there is no blessing in giving their rich parents money.

Freeze, who took to his Instagram page to make this submission on Monday, January 18, said the blessing is only attached to giving to the poor and needy.

According to him, he has never in his entire existence given money to his mother because she has a successful career and money.

Freeze’s mother is Prof Smarinda Olarinda, the current Vice Chancellor of Afe Babalola University, Ado Ekiti.

He however stated that it’s okay to give money to your parents if they are poor and struggling, but giving mother to rich parents is a waste.

He also recalled how a politician once dropped money for his mother while she was not home, and she drove down to his house to return his money.

He explained that his mother does not like handouts, and prefers spending money she worked hard for.

The media personality added that majority of those who won’t understand his post are those who have made money their “god” and poverty their “sibling”.

Reno Omokri has written a post to counter Daddy Freeze’s stance on not giving money to wealthy parents.

Daddy Freeze revealed earlier today that he has never given his mother money. He added that there is no blessing in giving your rich parents money.

Reacting to the post, Reno pointed out that the fifth commandment is “to honour your father and mother”.

Reno added, “the scripture does not teach that your parent’s financial status variates this command.”

Reno proceeded to write that honouring your parents is not in words alone, but also with your deeds, which includes your “substance”.

He used Isaac in the bible as an example. He said Issac was not poor, yet when he wanted to bless his son Esau, he asked for a bounty from him before he could release the blessing.
