But they taught us this one in Biology nah. There are recessive and dominant traits. It is possible for a trait can go from grandparents to the child, so unless you've seen other members of the extended family on both sides, please don't conclude wrongly.

I knew this fact in 2020 when I did my daughter's DNA. I acted like I did not believe the report of the Dr. That domicile in London.... then he create username for me to log into their database and check the result myself.... the DNA was conducted in US and this part of database contains Nigerian DNA results..... after checking mine I started to explore other people files for good 4 days..... omg my eye see plenty and fear catch me... after 4 days I was speechless for 2 days... I saw result like 3 kids but 2 belong to the man. I saw 1 result 4 kids none belong to the man.... atleast from like 100 results I checked only like 20 shows positive.... what I noticed more is that in family of 3, one child dont belong to the husband. If you have kids in naija just take that 150k and do DNA for your heart sake.

Many children are experiencing paternity scandals by learning that their father is really not their biological father. The perception that paternity fraud is high in Nigeria is not unfounded. Reports have been making the rounds that Nigeria has the second highest rate of paternity fraud in the world after Jamaica.Sep 17, 2023
Re: Nigeria Has 2nd Highest rate of Paternity Fraud In The World by HenryMedia: 12:11am On Mar 25
Nigerian women are just looking for foolish and vulnerable men to father and train children for them. Paternity fraud should be punishable with death sentence. It is the highest point of harlotry. Also DNA test should be made very much affordable at most up to #20,000 so that responsibility for pregnancy could be determined early just after child bath.

When will paternity fraud be criminalized? Paternity fraud is as bad as or even worse than rape. Meanwhile, does not see posts like this.
Criminalized for what reason or purpose? undecided Your ancestors saw good reason to allow men polygamy while allowing women free range guarantee as far as the paternity of any child born within the same marriage. Yes, Customary marriage laws allow for both in marriage so you cannot hold on to it while at the same claiming to be a victim of that which it allows. undecided

Been seeing comments all over the Internet as regards "if a man should go for DNA" Hell yeah! He should but you should do it without your wife's knowledge. You can use your child's toothbrush or hair comb to run DNA samples. Your wife need not to know except if the results comes out negative then you know you got married to a cock sucking HOE. “the child looks like your grandfather" na scam my bro
Under Customary Law in Nigeria, every child born during a marriage is presumed to belong to the man. So, as long as that marriage is in continuance, every child born belongs to the man. Now, if the man does not wish to father a bastard and all that, then he should altogether avoid customary Law unions. Otherwise, he is not a victim but one who accepted a marriage agreement that allows him polygamy while at the same time allowing the woman to bring into the marriage even children fathered by other men. grin
