Madonna Silent Over Adoption Controversy
There was another twist to the Madonna’s attempt at adopting one-year old Malawian David Banda, when his biological father Yohane Banda claimed he never intended to let go his son for good. He was under the impression that Madonna and husband Guy Ritchie were only going to educate his son, and then return him home. Yohane, who is illiterate, said that he signed the adoption papers only after the government officials explained to him that his son would return home after he had grown up. According to Yohane, he was given to understand that Madonna and Ritchie would educate and raise their son the same way they were doing at the orphanage. Madonna has maintained her silence since.
