Mohbad: Lagos Court reportedly orders Wunmi to conduct DNA test on son, Liam
- A sitting court in Lagos reportedly orders Wunmi to conduct DNA test on son, Liam
Ikorodu Chief Magistrate Court in Lagos State has granted an order for Wunmi, the widow of late singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, also known as Mohbad, to be notified of the pending DNA test application through alternative means.
This directive was issued after the legal team representing the Aloba family, spearheaded by Emmanuel Oroko, encountered numerous futile attempts to personally serve Wunmi.
Monisola Odumosu, a member of the family’s legal team, outlined in a statement that they petitioned for approval to deliver all legal documentation to Wunmi’s last known address.
The application, initiated by Joseph Aloba, the deceased singer’s father, is geared towards moving forward with the DNA testing process.
If the process were served on the last-known address of the respondent by Order of the Court, it would constitute good service and she would be aware of the pending suit. The Chief Magistrate granted the order and ordered that the respondent be served by posting the court process on her last known address.
“It will be recalled that the Aloba family is contesting the paternity of baby Liam and filed an application before the Family Court wherein it sought an order of the court against Wunmi to present herself and baby Liam for a DNA test at any recognised laboratory in Lagos,” the statement quoted Odumosu as saying.
