Nollywood veteran Ugezu J. Ugezu has kicked against paternity testing in African homes.
In a post shared on his Instagram page on Monday, February 21, 2022, he said he does not believe an African man should take the test, and pointed out the havoc it has caused in many homes.
According to him, a child who calls an African man father is an African man’s child.

He wrote, “This DNA thing is not really an African thing. A child born to an African man is the African man’s child. Our fathers held this belief and enjoyed peace of mind.”
“This DNA stuff is tearing many homes apart and destroying many innocent children In THINGS FALL APART, the Mother Earth rose against Okonkwo for killing the child who called him father. THINK.”
“A child who calls an African man father is an African man’s child. Period.”
There has been an increase in paternity testing in homes in Nigeria as men are discovering their children are not theirs biologically.
