An estate chairman reportedly caused a stir in his community after a shocking DNA test revealed that he is the biological father of only one child out of his four children, aged 6, 21, 18, and 12.
The revelation, shared in a viral post on X (formerly Twitter), alleged that the discovery led to a dramatic and emotional scene within the estate, drawing the attention of residents and sparking widespread discussion.
According to the viral post, the chairman, who had raised all four children as his own, discovered through a DNA test that only his youngest child, a 6-year-old, is biologically his. The other three children, aged 21, 18, and 12, were found not to be his.
