Father of orphan doesn't want Madonna to adopt
ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — The father of an African girl Madonna hopes to adopt says he wants to take care of his daughter himself — even though he's never met her.
James Kambeba, believed to be the biological father of Chifundo "Mercy" James, said he doesn't want the pop star to adopt the 4-year-old.
"I want to take care of her, and I'm capable to take care of my baby," he told CBS "The Early Show" in an interview to be aired

Kambewa wears a necklace bearing his daughter's name but has never met her and says he has only seen her "in newspapers and TV — not face to face"
Madonna spokeswoman Liz Rosenberg said in an e-mail message Saturday she didn't know if Kambeba was the father of the girl, who lives in an orphanage.
"All I know is that Mercy has been in an orphanage since the day she was born." Rosenberg said.
Madonnas appeal of a court ruling denying her request to adopt the girl is to be heard Monday in Malawi, in southeast Africa. The "Material Girl" and "Like a Virgin" singer already has adopted a son, David, from there.
