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.

You're probably one of those who believe 5g spreads coronavirus.

Is medical test and dna test the same thing

Why is that most of you are ignorant

You are the fool here! Any part of your body that can be used for medical tests can be used for DNA test as well is what he's saying. Your cognitive ability seems to be low. No hard feelings here though.

Another person that understands.

Many government are trying to create a dna bank of their citizens so they sponsor many private companies to collect these data.

Nigeria for instance, does not have rules for dna data protection.

American companies are already filling the gap in our unregulated market and they can get it by any means. These companies want African DNA samples and they are already compiling them.

The citizens who do not understand dna testing and data protection just give their dna data away without thinking, many of them think dna is only for paternity testing but they don't know that dna can be used for many things.
Una no dey tire for all these useless conspiracy theories?
Your biological specimens are all over the place and you think it is when you submit it yourself for DNA tests that they can get access to it?

Some women don dey fear and tremble, they don't know if their husband will return home the following day with the DNA result proving they are paternal frauds so posts like this are expected to be flying here.

Advise: If you are still frauding, please tell your man gently and have ease of heart.

To guys, I will solidly advise you to do the tests if you can, the breed of gals we have out there these days fit to put fear for any man heart.

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

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.

We will sign documents that guarantees that my samples will be returned to me after the test.

can you see the nonsense you are posting? So you know most people can't afford dna test, yet bill gates think this is the best way to steal people's dna? When he can device a lot of free less suspicious band hassle free methods to get millions of dna. You guys are jokers. Funny you can't even reason and see the nonsense you are posting. I think you are paid to destroy that dna company. I think you are working with an organization to make men desist from dna tests. Now don't say I am saying nonsense cos I can as well suspect you as part of this so called secret agents working to manipulate man kind just as you are doing to others

This your comment reeks of stupidity. Let’s assume without conceding that Nigeria’s DNA Market is unregulated, is DNA the only source from which “the Bad Guys” can obtain your data? Do you know how much of our personal data we give banks, government institutions, universities, embassies, social media companies etc.? Your private data can be obtained any and everywhere as we speak. Please stop defending paternity fraud and sit your f’cking ass off

After getting enough DNAs from Africa, they may use it to produce the virus that will be very effective against Africa. Like the way they produce AIDS and Covid-19
and they need paternity test to get this dna? Lol. Tell me another joke. Do you know how many projects bill gates, USAId, WHO has in Africa? Do you know how much access they have to blood samples of millions of africans already? So they need partenity test to get which dna again? Lol. You guys don't think

still talking nonsense as usual. And they have to wait for paternity test to get dna? Dna that they can get from anywhere even barbing salon? Dna that is in your saliva? That can be gotten at the thousands of hospitals they sponsor all over Africa? You people think you are talking to morons? Do you even know what dna is?

What sort of control? Will they force me to buy what I don't want to buy or will they exact some form of mind control? Next time when you go to cut your hair or do a blood test in hospital, ensure you pack all your hair from the salon or that they return the left over of your blood sample.

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.

If someone has your blood sample, he has your DNA sample too. Would you discourage people from conducting medical tests involving blood sample just so they can protect their DNA samples?

Guy, human samples can be taken from any of our health centers. If the needs for dna data information is highly needed as u acclaimed, they can as well go to private hospital, even government hospital laboratory to pick used samples, and of course they will have the information attached to the samples picked. This is Nigeria guy, do u think those in our medical laboratory won't let go of our blood samples if given a good amount of money? My brother they will let go. So what is the private information we re keeping? Almost every one has fallen sick before and their blood samples and info are in one health sector (hospital /medical lab) or the other.
