“DNA test is not our culture” – Nigerian Lady Defends Infidel!ty In Marriage.

A Nigerian lady’s response to a Facebook post has caused a stir online, as many claim her stance on DNA testing supports infidelity in marriage, especially among women.

The lady had been responding to a post by a Facebook user, Chioma Onwuesi, who was advocating for mandatory DNA tests in every hospital, after she stated that her friend had just found the three children he had with his wife weren’t his.

The post read;

“DNA should be compulsory in every hospital. A friend of mine is battling with his life at the hospital after finding out that all his 3 kids are not for him after so many years in abroad”

However even though the woman’s statement is a sentiment that many would agree with, another Facebook user, Ogochukwu Juliet Victory was not in support.

She claimed that DNA testing was not part of her culture and that any child born by a married woman belongs to her husband, in her words;

“But DNA test is not our culture now any child born by a married woman belongs to her husband”

Her statement was backed up by another user, Uchenna Nneka Nwigwe who claimed that ‘DNA is baseless’.

She said;

“When it depends in my place ita the man that paid a human bride price that has every child she has. So DNA is baseless”

The ladies statement caused an uproar online as many claimed that they were simply advocating for women cheating in marriages. A man should not be forced to raise a child that wasn’t his.

Many pointed out that culture had nothing to do with determining the true father of a child and every man had a right to know if his children were truly his, especially when the wife has been unfaithful in their marriage.
