The family of late singer Mohbad, also known as Ilerioluwa Aloba, has demanded the identity of a U.S. laboratory that is set to perform a DNA test to determine the paternity of the singer's son, Liam. The family also requested that the examination scheduled for October 31 at the Mainland General Hospital/IDH in Yaba, Lagos, be postponed until their concerns over transparency and compliance with a court order are addressed.
In a statement, the family expressed worry about the collection of tissue-based DNA samples in Lagos and their potential dispatch to the U.S. for analysis. The family questioned whether the Lagos State DNA and Forensic Centre, designated by a court order issued on May 5, 2026, would conduct the examination or if it would merely collect and send the samples abroad.
They emphasized the need for clarity on this matter, as the distinction is crucial in determining the manner in which the court's directive will be implemented.
