Joseph Aloba, father of late afrobeats singer, Ilerioluwa Oladimeji (aka Mohbad), has aired his opinion on conducting a DNA test on his grandson.
This is coming amid controversy over the paternity of Mohbad’s son on social media.
Speaking with BBC Pidgin, Mohbad’s father said he regarded his son as a buddy and that the two of them interacted like brothers.
He claimed that the controversy surrounding a DNA test on Mohbad’s son has spread throughout Nigeria and is now a national issue.
Aloba stated that the right thing should be done at the right time concerning the DNA.
In his words: “This thing has become a majority thing, not only Nigeria. So they should do the proper thing at the proper time.”
