Media personality Lofty Matambo has urged men to consider conducting DNA tests for their children to avoid the risk of unknowingly spending on kids who may not be biologically theirs.
Speaking publicly, Lofty emphasized that a DNA test is a small investment compared to the long-term financial commitment of raising a child.
“DNA is cheaper than paying for school fees while unsure the child is yours,” he said, highlighting the potential regrets and financial strain that can arise from uncertainty about paternity.
His remarks have sparked debate online, with some praising the advice as practical and responsible, while others criticized it as insensitive, arguing that fatherhood should not be measured solely by biology.
The conversation sheds light on the importance of trust, responsibility, and clarity in relationships, as well as the financial realities of raising children in today’s society.
