The conversation on the true paternity of a child has been trending on social media for the longest while and as such Nigeria ns have been divided over whether DNA testing is necessary or not, given the recent cases of paternity fraud. Reacting via her Instagram page, Doyin explained that given the high rate of paternity fraud, men are right to request for DNA testing. She wrote: “It’s not a bad thing for your partner to request a DNA test.

If he wants to take care of a child that isn’t his, let it be his decision to do that intentionally not because he thinks he’s the father. The rate of paternity fraud is too high for you to think emotionally if your partner asks for a DNA test. It’s a painful request but it’s understandable.
