A court in Lagos State has approved requests for DNA tests to determine the paternity of Liam, the son of the late singer Mohbad. The tests will be conducted in laboratories located in the United States and the United Kingdom.
The decision was announced by Oladayo Ogungbe, the legal counsel for the late singer's father, following a court session in Ikorodu. Ogungbe confirmed that one laboratory in the US and two in the UK have been authorized to carry out the tests.
The legal proceedings aim to establish Liam's biological father, a critical step in resolving ongoing disputes. This development is a result of legal action taken in connection with the estate and lineage of the deceased musician.
The late singer Mohbad passed away recently, leading to various legal and personal inquiries. Establishing paternity is often a key factor in inheritance and familial claims.
The court's approval signifies a procedural step forward in addressing the paternity question. Further details about the specific timeline for the tests were not immediately available.
This legal process involves the judiciary overseeing the gathering of evidence to settle family matters. The chosen laboratories are expected to provide accurate and legally admissible results.
