That’s not how statistics work
Just because there’s a 25% positive doesn’t mean the entire population is so represented
Most of the DNA done is as a result of doubts or trying to travel abroad. Ask yourself what percentage of Nigerians travel abroad or have dispute over fatherhood?



It’s like saying you got 25% positive for malaria testing so the entire country is 25% affected

You need to go out and do randomized tests on the entire population to find out the requisite numbers. Some of you should have listened in your maths classes

casualobserver:
I have said it elsewhere that yes we know Nigerian women are unfaithful but I am beginning to think this is a marketing ploy by DNA test centers.

It’s a ploy, don’t ever believe what the dna centers in Nigeria are saying just better go Ghana or Ivory Coast. They make a lot of mistakes too

Tonitoniton:
DNA or not, most of these ladies are very unfaithful

I know of some cases where a bride to be had sex with her boyfriend a night to her wedding as a parting gift

Just imagine if she took in from that escapade, who do you think will take the responsibility?

You lied and you know it stop the lies it doesn’t make sense we all know but can’t point out the person sleeping around

Lamanii22:
A man may still forgive if the first born isn't his but what about 2nd, 3rd 4th born? Women need to do better ..

Which man will forgive you if the first child is not his own

Where is the man the will forgive such fraud?

Do you know how men cherish their first fruit 🍑? Do you know the joy that fills a man's heart seeing his supposed first child grow almost to his height under his roof?
...and you think such a man will forgive upon realising that he has been fooling himself and wasting money on another man's offspring all along?

Women, you people should fear God na.

With all due respect observed and with all intent on politeness, you are a female. On this issue of paternity tests, we are not exactly interested in your opinions or consulting you on the issue because it is in your interests to denigrate it. We believe left to women, DNA tests would not exist.
An
A woman’s opinion on DNA tests no matter how well intended is like asking a woman for her body count. Whatever the answer cannot be taken as genuine therefore xno point in asking or listening.

That said and I like I have previous expressed, I also recognize it is in the interests of the DNA test centers whether the tests they conduct are accurate or not to encourage men to have tests and to possibly paint a picture of it being more rampant than it is. It is a business….no tests …no money, more tests….more money! A man intent on conducting a test is quite capable of knowing he needs to conduct multiple tests to eliminate contamination or errors.

Thank you for your attention on this matter!

Anybody that believes this, it means if you have four member in your family one of them is not born by your father, the funny thing is that you might be the one.

I wish DNA can be subsidised and made compulsory. Even if it is at govt hospitals. People who do not want it can sign a form to that effect, but the rest of the populace gets it.
This would reduce the sensationalism every Eke market day. FG should look into it abeg.

lilfreezy:
This is just a ploy to get y'all to spend above 300k to do a DNA test. Tell whoever to release evidence from the data they collated. It's a huge marketing ploy.

People do things like this and get away with it because there are no consequences for it.

Na today you dey hear say Naija is the headquarter of Paternity fraud in the whole Universe?
Maybe all of the reports are one big giant Conspiracy?

But the data is talking about people who conducted the test and not the general population. The percentage of paternity fraud in the general population will be much lower

Lol.

When they say that HIV incidence is a certain percentage in a State,do you think everyone living in the state was tested?

A sample is taken,a sizeable sample and the result extrapolated.

So be assured,this is a rough reflection of the society we live in.

Are they not talking about people that approached them for tests?. They did not say they randomly tested the population

semid4lyfe:
I am beginning to doubt all these DNA test statistics. It seems people are now making up these numbers to bash ladies.

It is simple arithmetic

What is the sample source of Nigerians who can afford dna testing?

Is that sample source representative of the entire population of Nigeria with 36 states and multiple income levels?

It is just Dna testing companies looking to boost their income stream as family japa money has dried up.

Tonnyray:
They've overdone the aggressive marketing and it's now backfiring.
Wereys want to recoup their investments and resorted to manufacturing stats.
Utter bunkum.

Omo I think say na only dey reason am self. They should caution them. And they doing this because nobody is checkmating them.

African culture does not recognise DNA test

Not all cultures accept that in some african cultures the man and his children will definitely loose their lives if his wife goes out to cheat on him.

BodyCount:
When we tell dem to pick virgins, they tell us it doesn’t matter...

Una go cry tire

Una go take care of strangers pikin tire

I HAVE SAID IT SEVERALTIMES,
IF YOU DIDN'T MEET HER AS ONE, BE VERY CAREFUL and do DNA...
> You can never know what other men before you have programed in her and her DNA

> You can't know her true Bodycount
WHILE THEIR REAL FIGURE IS +20
They'll tell you it's just 2 + you
1st guy that forced himself...
2nd guy - her ex
And you

> You can't know how many belle she don comot.

The advantage of a virgin is INCREDIBLY ENORMOUS
*At least, you're sure she never use POSTI or MISO before...

*Na you go open chat and write whatever program you like in her

*She won't have who to compare you with...

Even God will be happy
THERE WAS REASON GOD CHOSE MARY TO BIRTH JESUS, INSTEAD OF A W.....

There are still stories of virgins later going on to cheat on their husbands nothing is guaranteed in this life.

Lamanii22:

I doubt if any man will forgive irrespective whether it's the first child or not and the dynamic of that marriage will not remain the same again. The chain of trust has been broken in that regard. If I discover you cheated during our dating days when we are married, the distrust will automatically set in.

I know mumu comments like this will come up...
So a virgin and a non virgin that will cheat, which one?
