Big Brother Naija reality star Doyinsola Anuoluwapo David, popularly known as Doyin, has said that requests for DNA test shouldn’t elicit emotional responses.
Nigerians have been divided over whether DNA testing is necessary or not, given the recent cases of paternity fraud.
Reacting via her Instagram page, Doyin explained that given the high rate of paternity fraud, men are right to request for DNA testing.
She wrote: “It’s not a bad thing for your partner to request for DNA test. If he wants to take care of a child that isn’t his, let it be his decision to do that intentionally not because he thinks he’s the father.
“The rate of paternity fraud is too high for you to think emotionally if your partner asks for a DNA test. It’s a painful request but it’s understandable.”
