‘I will do DNA test before accepting any child’ – Singer Mayorkun

Nigerian musician Mayorkun, whose real name is Adewale Mayowa Emmanuel, disclosed on a recent episode of the In My Opinion podcast that he plans to undergo a DNA test before accepting any child as his own. During the conversation, he also revealed his intention to sign a prenuptial agreement with his girlfriend prior to their marriage, and to conduct a DNA test every time she gives birth.

Mayorkun's girlfriend expressed her disapproval of the idea, but he remains committed to the plan. The singer emphasized that if the child is indeed his, there would be no problems; however, if it turns out not to be his, he plans to make the situation public. DNA testing is gaining popularity in Nigeria, with experts advocating for it due to the rising instances of paternity fraud in the country.

Several celebrities have also encouraged Nigerian men to conduct DNA tests to confirm the paternity of their children before taking on the responsibility of raising them.
