Iyabo Ojo has chastised Nigerians for putting pressure on Omowunmi, the widow of late Nigerian artist Ilerioluwa Olademeji Aloba, alias Mohbad, to do a DNA test on her kid to establish his paternity.
Some Nigerians, it was learned, have continued to demand a DNA test on Mohbad’s five-month-old kid to show that he is Mohbad’s child.
Larry Omodia, a businessman, recently donated N10 million to sponsor Mohbad’s widow for a ‘all-expense paid’ DNA test if she consented.
However, in a video message posted on her Instagram profile, Iyabo Ojo responded that the calls for a DNA test were “insensitive.”
She said, “All these distractions of DNA test, you people should please allow Mohbad’s family to mourn. If Mohbad’s parents want a DNA test, they can request it. You and I don’t have the right to tell them to do a DNA test.
“Mohbad never told anyone that his son wasn’t his son. But if the officers investigating his death feel there is a need to conduct a DNA test, they will. We need to be very sensitive, please. Why are you guys bullying the poor lady [Mohbad’s wife]? Leave her alone.”
