Mr Joseph Aloba, the father of late Nigerian singer Ilerioluwa Olademeji Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, has said he would be very happy if the DNA test proves Liam to be his grandson.
As gathered by Beyond Boders, Aloba in an interview with Stams TV, made this known while speaking in Yoruba dialect on the importance of the DNA test, which translates to this:
“Three days before his death, I was with him, he even served me food and he put Liam on my hands and he was taking pictures.
“I’ll be very happy if Liam is Mohbad’s son because I love the child. But if it turns out that Liam is not his son, it won’t be good if we don’t find out now because of the future so that even late Mohbad shouldn’t be blaming me that I accepted something like this in. So the DNA is very necessary.”
He further demanded the DNA test would be carried out in his presence.
“Concerning the DNA test, it’s a must they do it. Nigerians are demanding for it.
“I heard rumours that they did it but no matter what, I’m Mohbad’s father so I’ll give consent on the DNA test or send anyone who can represent me during the test if I’m not there to know how they’ll do it.
Aloba also proposed that the test be conducted at two different hospitals to ensure the accuracy of the results.
“And even when they want to do it, it should be done in two different places so we can be very sure and know the truth.
“Where I am from in Ikere Ekiti, even Olu Ikere just left my side now after paying me a visit. We don’t accept bastards where I’m from, but it will be a thing of joy for me if this child is Mohbad’s because this is the only child he said he left for me.

Recall that after the singer’s demise, news of his son surfaced. There has since been much debate among Nigerians about whether or not a DNA test is necessary to establish the true paternity of the late singer’s son, Liam.
