Mohbad's Family Seeks Clarity on DNA Test Lab Identity

The family of late singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, known as Mohbad, has requested the disclosure of the identity of a United States laboratory set to conduct a DNA test to determine the paternity of his son, Liam. They have called for the postponement of the examination scheduled for Saturday, October 31, 2026, at Mainland General Hospital/IDH in Yaba, Lagos, until their concerns regarding transparency and compliance with a court order are resolved.

In a statement signed by family head Samuel Aloba, they expressed worries about the arrangements for the tissue-based DNA examination, particularly whether the Lagos State DNA and Forensic Centre would conduct the examination as directed by a court order issued on May 5, 2026, or merely collect and send samples abroad. The family demands clarity on the laboratory's identity, its accreditation, and the testing procedure, emphasizing the need for transparency in a process with significant legal and personal implications.
