An Igbo man has aired out his opinion on fathers performing DNA tests on their children.
This is coming after a man and his wife went viral after he beat her to stupor for rejecting DNA test on their children.
Taking to social media platform, Facebook, to air his opinion, Hugo’s Abuudo opined that it is not cultural for Igbo people to conduct DNA on their children as any child born in a marriage belongs to the man.
He wrote:
“In Igbo custom and culture, every child born by a wife in a marriage automatically belongs to her husband.
There is no contesting it.
DNA/ paternity test is out to destroy the marriage institution as we know it.
Most of our fathers, grandfathers and great grandfathers were not actually the biological children of their fathers.
So sometimes I ask, what do you want to do with a paternity test when your own paternity is in doubt?”
