As a man that knows a lady is getting married in a few days, why you no refuse the offer. Not everything given freely should be accepted have some self respect.

You see you guys.

Most men are predators
Men were created to dominate, prey over anything they perceive to be weak.

It's like telling a lion why it chose to devor an antelope that deliberately walked into it's environment.

A man (most times) have little to lose when it comes to sex brought on a platter of gold.

What this feminist rubbish will cause the female gender is yet to be measured in this part of the world.

It's already destroying that of the western world, what we have witnessed here so far is just a child's play.

When the world returns back to the age where it's about survival of the fittest, let's see how many female can hold their own.

Acidosis is right in the sense that the method used to collect data is no different from Snowball sampling. The downside of snowball method is the likelihood of reporting exacerbated figures.
This report is not even a representation of the entire Lagos State, we can't generalize it to an entire geo-political zone or the entire Nigeria. Like the research said, the Lagos figure might be high due to the proximity of Smart Labs location to the sample population.

Please note: Alot of bad things are happening in Nigerian hospital for long now.

Kids are being swapped once you a woman give birth.

It has even gotten to its peak but people do not know.

A brother of mine has a case, he is AC so he married AA just to avoid trouble.

After the wife gave birth the third day problem began.

After a month the child begin to sleep in the hospital, when test was later done, the child is SS.

They went to series of hospital to confirm the rest still the same thing.

This happened in Ogbomosho Hospital.

Be careful out there.

Ofunaofu:



Smart DNA, a leading DNA testing center based in Lagos, Nigeria, has released a comprehensive data analysis of all relationship DNA tests conducted at its facility between July 1, 2022, and June 30, 2023.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that DNA is Deoxyribonucleic acid; it is the material that carries genetic information for the development and functioning of an organism.

A DNA test (genetic testing) is a medical test that can identify mutations in one’s genes, chromosomes or proteins.

These tests provide information about an individual’s ancestral roots.



A DNA relationship test is the use of genetic profiles to determine whether an individual is the biological parent of another individual.

The Smart DNA report, based on thousands of users, provides an unprecedented insight into the DNA testing trends across Nigeria.

Released on Tuesday, it showed startling findings about the reasons people seek testing, the demographics of those tested, and the outcomes of the tests.

Nevertheless, it showed positive results which indicated that the men who came out positive as the biological fathers of the children who they queried their paternity, accounted for 73.88 per cent of tests.

Negative results were 26.12 per cent of those who were tested.

On geographical spread, the report showed that Lagos accounted for the highest percentage of tests, with 82.89 per cent of the total.

This is followed by Oyo (3.29 per cent), Ogun (3.07 per cent) and FCT (2.63 per cent and Rivers (2.41 per cent).

“This heavy concentration in Lagos, particularly the Mainland (68.14 percent) compared to the Island (31.86 per cent), is likely due to the location of Smart DNA’s office in Lagos.

“Also likely due to the purchasing power of the state’s residents, and the high population density of the state,’’ it said.

The report showed that the majority of tests (89.10 per cent) were conducted for ‘Peace of Mind’, followed by ‘Immigration’ (8.97 per cent), and ‘Legal’ (0.64 per cent).

“This suggests that individuals primarily seek DNA testing to confirm biological relationships for personal reasons rather than legal or immigration purposes.’’

It showed that men were the predominant initiators of contact, making up 86.44 per cent of the first contacts, compared to 13.56 per cent made by women.

“This indicates that men are more likely to have doubts about paternity or other relationships and take the initiative to seek testing,’’ it said.

“Positive results indicating that the man tested is the biological father of the child, accounted for 73.88 per cent of tests, while negative results made up 26.12 per cent.

“This suggests that in the majority of cases, the men seeking testing are indeed the biological fathers, but in more than 1 in 4 cases, the tested father is not the biological father of the child’’.

On Ethnic Group, the Yoruba ethnic group had the highest percentage of tests (61.23 per cent), followed by Igbo (19.07 per cent).

“Others (12.08 per cent), and Edo (6.78 per cent). This may be reflective of the ethnic distribution in Lagos and the surrounding areas’’.

On the sex of the child, more tests were conducted on male children (56.62 per cent) compared to female children (43.38 per cent).

It said that this may suggest a cultural preference for confirming paternity of male offspring, although further research would be needed to confirm this hypothesis.

Analysing the age range of those tested, it said that most tests were conducted on children aged 0-5 years (58.02 per cent), followed by the 6-12 age group (25.95 per cent).

“This indicates that paternity tests are mostly done on children when they are younger rather than when they get older’.

The Smart DNA findings said that the men who opted for these DNA tests were mostly between the ages of 31-40 years (40 per cent) and 41-50 years (23 per cent).

“ This age group is likely to have young children and may be in a financial position to afford the testing’’.

Officials of Smart DNA said the centre is committed to providing fully accredited DNA testing services to clients in accordance with the highest international standards.


According to them, the report aims to shed light on the current trends in relationship DNA testing in Nigeria, contributing to a better understanding of this important aspect of our society. (NAN)

Acidosis:
That is a great figure for a non-representative sample. People who go for DNA tests already have some level of doubts about the paternity of their children. So, this finding cannot apply to "Nigerian men."

If only 25% of men who harbour doubts and trust issues regarding their children's paternity receive negative results, then it mean that 75% of men return home with a sense of relief and joy. To achieve a more representative data, the paternity clinic needs to select and test men at random from all geopolitical zones.



Yeah!

That's how analysts think!

Out of the sample tested, irrespective of their ability or not, 67% of them are Yorubas . This still confirms the ethnic dominance of Yoruba in Lagos

Maybe they did the test for less than a 1000 people.

However, for every unfaithful woman out there is an equally capable unfaithful Man, who will eventually reap what he has sown.

You sleep with married women, when you finally get to marry it is the high blood pressure from the possibility of your children not being yours and that of your wife infidelity that will kill you.

We will now see topics like: Percentage of men that die due to HBP from karma related infidelity.

DNA test should be compulsory in every hospital. The birth certificate should also carry the DNA of every child.

■ Yes. Women are designed to follow instructions. They got mad if you deceived them, but they Will helplessly still trust you. Men are the ones to give laws and maintain the society. But men are increasingly becoming “pussies” these days.
■ No wonder the west is taking power from men so that the leaders can control them more effectively. It’s difficult giving power to men that are no longer men. It is easier knowing they are all women, so western leaders simply encourage confusion and women authority.
■ If I am a leader. I will do the same.
