“This was for the express reason to have those particular posts about him stop and preserve his well-being. For the record, whilst I know both parents, I have intentionally never gotten involved in their dispute and have no desire to,” he said.

“My only concern has always been my godson and his wellbeing. In line with that, to honor his wishes, I don’t plan to say any more on this matter, and I would respectfully request the media to also do the same and keep his name and any reference to him out of any future articles concerning his parents,” he said.

Nelson made headlines after Wilson claimed that the TV host testified against her in favor of Consunji. To recall, the businessman filed a petition for a Temporary and a Permanent Protection Order under the Violence Against Women and their Children Act (VAWC) of 2004 against the ex-beauty queen, noting that the latter’s post caused emotional distress to Connor.
