He remembered that his father used letters to distance himself from his kids, making them feel distant and unloved.

“My father once disowned me twice. Not only myself, but a few of us as well—my dad had multiple wives. He had three marriages. Everybody has files. As of right now, your name is just Seyi, full stop,” he said.
