You need to talk to a lawyer, and take this matter to probate court immediately. Tell the judge about the situation and your concerns. Ask him to put your nephew’s money into a trust through a bank or other third party. Otherwise, as his guardian, there’s a good chance the father will be granted control of the money.
I’m not big on bank trust departments, but I am big on keeping scumbags from taking money away from kids!
