A Nigerian man has been left devastated after discovering through a DNA test that he is not the biological father of any of his five children, despite being married for 15 years.
The heartbreaking revelation was shared on X (formerly Twitter) by a user identified as @BlessedGirl001, who disclosed that the man decided to conduct a DNA test only to realize that none of the children were his.
She wrote:
“A man just found out he’s not the biological father of his 5 children. This fraud is getting too much. After 15 years of marriage, he realized his children are not his.”
The post quickly went viral, sparking widespread reactions from social media users. Many expressed shock, anger, and deep sympathy for the man, while others debated the need for mandatory DNA testing at birth.
One user, @primepmp, suggested:
“This is sad, so sad. There should be a mandatory DNA test before a newborn leaves the hospital. It has to be a law.”
Another, @CruiseOsimma, questioned the circumstances:
“I don’t understand. Are you sure he’s fertile? Wasn’t he sleeping with her? This whole thing doesn’t make any sense to me.”
Meanwhile, @jennife67763831 reacted with disbelief, saying:
“Hmmmmm, five children, not even one? Some women, God have mercy.”
The incident has reignited conversations about paternity fraud and the growing calls for DNA testing as a safeguard against such shocking revelations.
