Do the proper thing – Mohbad’s father demands DNA test for his grandson.
Joseph Aloba, the father of Mohbad, has expressed his stance on the topic of conducting a paternity test (DNA) for Mohbad’s son, Liam.
In an interview with BBC Pidgin, he revealed that the widespread clamor for the DNA test has prompted him to support the idea. Joseph Aloba shed more light on his relationship with his late son, Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba. When questioned about his opinion on the trending demand for a DNA test on Liam, he emphasized that the right thing should be done.
This discussion arose due to the insistence of people on social media regarding the paternity test and the speculations surrounding Mohbad’s 24-year-old widow, Omowunmi, which led to online debates about the morality and sensitivity of such requests.
He said, “This thing has become a majority thing, not only in Nigeria. So they should do the proper thing at the proper time.”
