Father of late Nigerian musician Mohbad, Mr Joseph Aloba, has demanded the conduct of a DNA test on his grand child, Liam Aloba.
Since the musician passed away weeks ago, there have been calls from the public for his wife, Omowunmi to do a DNA test on their son to ascertain his true paternity.
However, speaking in an interview with BBC Pidgin, Mohbad’s father said a DNA test should be conducted on his grandson, stressing that it has become a global concern.
He said; “This thing has become a majority thing, not only in Nigeria. So they should do the proper thing at the proper time.”

CorrectNG recalls that Mr Aloba said his former wife, who happens to be Mohbad’s first stepmom, once asked him to choose between the late singer and her.
The bereaved father made this known during an interview with The Punch as he clarified Mohbad’s lyrics in the song, “Sorry”. Mr Aloba said his relationship with her was complicated.
He revealed that he chose Mohbad, and his decision in picking his son over his partner led to her packing out from the family.
Aloba said; “The stepmother told me one day, ‘Choose me or your son.’ I chose my son (Mohbad) and she packed her loads and left.
I and the lady were together for more than seven years. I married her around 2005. That stepmother did not want me to send Mohbad to school, and I chose my son. And she decided to leave”.
