Even though it is true that there are paternity frauds in our society, the reality is it is not so much like how social media are publicizing it.

Nigerian dna market is unregulated, dna is your human footprint, your personal data. Dna is not only about testing paternity but it can be use for many things.

I believe there is a plot on Nigerians by some Dna tech companies in Nigeria to raise the discussion about DNA Test in our society because they want to create a DNA bank For Nigerians.

For instance, there is a company called 54gene in lagos that is building an African DNA bank, the company raised almost 15 million dollars from Bill and merinda gates foundation. The company claim that the Greater availability of African genomic data could lead to medical breakthroughs for the African’s 1.2 billion people.

As far back as 2019, the company has almost 60,000 dna samples of Nigerians in their Bank, in addition, the company is based in Washington DC and Nigeria.

How many of you are concerned about your privacy, don't let social media discussions fool you, some of these dna companies might be the ones sponsoring the discussion so that people can go for Dna test, soon they will gather your data and also sell it to the highest bidder in the United states or to law enforcement agencies.

People should know what they spread online, you might be claiming woke, understand that your privacy matters and that anybody who has control over your dna data has control over you.

A typical APC rubbish... You are just making allegations without backing up your claims with verifiable FACTS...

Only people who have poor education will be fooled by this hogwash that you have spewed here... calling melinda and bill because it is now bait to drive any blackmail...

this generation are worse slave to the west than their father was.
a bunch of psychological slave, coming on line to brag of been a redpiller, alpha mules forming alpha male.
they vast in issues of women and sex but far backward in the scheme of event in the world. they come online, to form itk whereas they have no iota wisdom, knowledge and understanding.

Dna data are your human footprint also they can be sold to law enforcement and third parties.

Once you give someone your dna, he or she has private information about your medical a d family history, diseases, they can modify and engineer your Genetic, also it can be used to track you.

Giving your dna in an unregulated market like Nigeria is like giving your privacy and freedom out.

You might think dna testing is only about paternity test, it is more than that.

Conspiracy theory. Story. Just like saying 5G causes Coronavirus.

Bullshit. My people, which of the two evils would you choose? Training a child that's not yours for 20+ years or making your DNA available to some tech folks. In the latter's case, they may actually mean what they claim. Must there always be an ulterior motive for the collection of data. There are causes you would be willing to give up some of your privacy for. Nigerian men consider this one of those causes. Say no to paternity fraud. Nigerian men's lives matter. cheesy grin

Ebola isn’t as communicable as COVID 19 , any disease that has affected Africa ain’t as communicable as COVID 19. I agree they might be planning to do a study on our DNA, I don’t trust these white people , they can do and undo , the fact our immunity is strong, kinda shows we are obviously greatly blessed and better in something, and I know they ain’t happy about it.

I burst into laughter reading your reply.

You hit the nail on the head.

It's sad to think his point was lost simply because he tried to link it with a case that is still blowing our minds.

No one can destroy the way women can.

I advise every man to do DNA test as the repercussions of finding out 20yrs later are too terrible to bear.

It's bad enough having an affair, but allowing your lover to pour his seed inside and then passing off the child as your husband's is the depth of wickedness.

I believe that the woman in question loved her boss and never loved the cuckold husband.

If you investigate she may hve been using Postinor whenever she sleeps with the husband so as not to have a child for him.

If you have a good wife always praise her and also God as well.

With these information, they can engineer your genetics, they can use your dna to track you, it can be used for mass surveillance.

Even in the United states, there was a leak, that the government was compiling dna samples of foreign diplomats. It was a scandal.

Now think, why do they need foreign diplomats dna

they can't use your DNA to track you, like a gadget working with GPS, they can only use it to identify you.
