The Lagos State magistrates' court sitting in Ikorodu has approved three laboratories abroad for the DNA test of the late singer Mohbad’s son, Liam.
The counsel to the late singer’s father, Oladayo Ogungbe, announced the development after the court session.
Ogungbe disclosed that the court authorised one laboratory in the US and two in the UK.
While explaining that all parties will be present for the collection of samples, he noted that the singer’s widow, Wunmi, and Joseph Aloba, his father, picked one laboratory each, while the court also picked an independent one.
The development came after Mohbad’s father demanded a DNA test on Liam following the circumstances surrounding the singer’s death in September 2023 at his residence.
“The court has eventually picked three DNA Laboratory centres, two in the United Kingdom and one in the United States. One from us, one from them, and the court picked an independent one,” he said.
The matter was, however, adjourned to April 7 2026, for the collection of samples, which will be monitored by welfare officers.
