The message said:

“Where are my children? My girls? My children do nothing for me, even though I educated them. And they all graduated from high school. Here I am washing all my clothes. I don’t know why,” he said before naming his three daughters.

Celia, one of the daughters mentioned by Sammy, has since responded to the abandonment claims made by her father.

He criticized her for making private family matters public, insisting that neither she nor her sisters had wronged him.

“I am one of the three girls my father mentioned in his post. There are things that happen in the family that people do not understand. First, I am a Christian, and I know my sisters, and I have never done anything bad to our father until he came online and made us look bad,” he said.

Celia pointed out that there are deeper issues that need to be resolved within the family, adding that her father put the matter online to gain public sympathy.

He also noted that neither he nor his sisters will give an explanation to the public or address their father’s claims in public, as they do not owe anyone an explanation.

“We have never abandoned you, but you are doing this to get public sympathy. I don’t think this is the best way to handle things, so I will not get into this with you. Resolving things peacefully was the only way forward,” he said.
