the op and people supporting his post are daft.
If the US needs dna of africans, what is the most effective way of getting it? Paternity tests? Lol.
When they have free immunization programs, they can set up maternity health centers, build free hospitals. And get unending supply of dna from patients. Why go through the stress of influencing social media? Makes zero sense. And it is funny these guys claim to be educated
please louder so that they can hear u, I only hope they understand

One cold beer for op.
Infact I read about 54gene during the covid around May last year.
There might be a plot to get the data.
who are the targets? If it is africans, Nigerians in general, why not just use other cheaper and more reliable means to gather the dna? Think about it pls. Also what this is an effort to destroy 54gene? Have you thought about it? Do you know I can destroy you image online very easily and dolts would just read anything I put online and believe? Think
This dna what is so special? So easy to obtain

just listen to yourself. So they can't get your name and details from health centers they sponsor? Also tell me what they need the dna for? Millions of Americans already have their dna on record which is what is used in crime investigation so if you are not planning to be a rapist or murderer why are you scared?

Nonsense comment.

You want people to do dna test without thinking about data protection.

Nigerian dna market is unregulated.when you give your dna to companies, they have control over you.

Control over me on what
Can they then remote control me
Can they remote control my employer to sack me from my job

Can the control the air I breath afterwards

Can they make me unemployable in case I seek another job

You are the one that need the deep breathe.

Apparently, most of you are stuck here, what do you know about market regulations, what do you know about data protection even when most of you use your smart phones daily.

In the United states for instance, your dna sample is open to the government to access. And many dna companies sell dna info to government and third parties

Most of you are just emotional without thinking.

The world is one big market with American companies trying to get a pie on gullibles Nigerians who are ready to sell their soul.
Stop overanalyzing. Stop feeling like you know what you are talking about. Watching some obscure internet video and calming knowledge from it makes you very stupid. Any body who wants your DNA can get it. I mean ANYBODY!!! . When you use the finger print sensor on your phone what do you thing you were doing? You digital print with your biometric is already unique to you. Anyone interested in you will get you data. you have not privacy unless you are still in stone age. Even at that, your data can still be gotten

madam. That is not the question I asked you. How is your dna so special? When you go for lab tests do you request that they destroy all your dna? Have you or anyone you know ever done that? So what makes you think they have to find social media propaganda to get dna that has always been available to them if they ever needed it?

my dear u are not wiser than me in anyway , so don’t tell me to listen to myself, there is a lot of sense in what he’s saying whether u like it or not . Ur DNA can be out there but they do not know who has it . So when they hv ur dna from a barbing salon, how will they know which is urs ? When so many people come to the barbing salon daily. American government do not hv their citizens dna in their database except u hv provided it for them for one reason or the other just like this. People don’t just drop their dna for the American government to handle, if not there won’t be millions of Jane doe’s out there

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.

What is all this balderdash that you're saying? DNA resemble cellphone signal?

B.S Anyone having the data about your DNA CANNOT have control over you. How does having information about the chromosomes in your DNA give a person control over you I mean if you said the information (data) you post on social media sites, can give people control over you its understandable e.g. your nudes, your crass comments, where you live, your beliefs...people have been blackmailed with those information, but the data about your DNA ?! Looool please allow people who want to be assured that their kids are theirs, to do the paternity tests.

my DNA is very special I don’t know about yours . Now when A lab test is conducted , u consent to a malaria test or whatever test and it would be done , but in this case they hv ur signature consenting to a DNA test specifically. And when they are done , do u think they would throw it away , of course not, it is stored for reasons best known to them

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.
na wetin you de talk ni? Wait oooo whey I be olodo wey one woman go come confuse collect another's child. Na that one go even kill person pass this nonsense you de try to prove oooo.
Imagine your woman wey tell you sey she Virgin before meeting her. Now after meeting her the same day she came late to your house claiming she went to visit one of her uncle for Gwagwalada, now come sleep with her no sign sey she be virgin she come tell you sey she broke her hymen when she was learning cycling in her primary school.
Three weeks later she come tell you she no fit find her period na so you accept go put ring for her and after you do "I do I do" then Pikin comot. My brother, the girl black, you black but Pikin come fair for complexion. U come see sey the Pikin resemble one acclaim uncle wey she de visit for Gwagwalada but the man na shiga daddy. Abeg no vex ooo wetin you go do.
Abeg see ehn blood is not something to joke with. It is said that it is the mother who can say the paternity of a child but science has come to help us. For bill gate abi na bill window all join. I must do am.
See with this paternity test ehn many ladies and men will close their legs and become more responsible and faithful.
