Nigerian rapper Panshak Zamani, widely known as Ice Prince, has been publicly accused of gross negligence towards the health and well-being of his son by his baby mama, Maimah.

Maimah, frustrated by years of inaction, took to Instagram to publicly address this ongoing issue. She claims it has persisted since their son, Jamal, was born twelve years ago.

In her candid post, Maimah revealed that Ice Prince, the 35-year-old hip-hop artist, callously suggested that their son could live at his family home in Jos if she was unable to provide adequate housing.

This insensitive remark followed her request for him to contribute half of her rent, given that their son resides with her.

Maimah further detailed Ice Prince’s apparent indifference towards their son’s health. She claimed that he would often delay seeking medical attention for Jamal.

He would wait for her to become agitated and use profanity before he would arrange for someone to take their son to the hospital during his illness.

Ice Prince and his baby mama celebrate their son's 4th birthday in 2016.

Adding to the gravity of the situation, Maimah disclosed that Jamal recently commenced a new school term without necessities. They include clean clothes, water, and provisions, despite being under his father’s care.

In her words,

“A child I raised for 12 years. I’ve left him for you, Panshak. Yet you neglect this boy emotionally, physically, and financially. We will all reap what we sow.”

She continued,

“I wanted this on record so everyone knows what kind of person you are. All that fake humility is a farce. You are a damaged, terrible person at your core. You have one child and you can’t do right by him.

“I took down my posts earlier because I got a call from someone I respect and wanted resolution, but this is beyond me. I just need Panshak to do the right thing.”

However, a notable absence was observed at the dedication ceremony. Paul’s twin brother, Peter, was not present at the festivities, nor was he seen in any of the shared pictures.

In contrast, their older brother, Jude, was in attendance, adding complexity to the family dynamics.

Many then took to the comment section asking, “Where is your twin brother, Paul?”
