A Nigerian man recently made a shocking discovery that has stirred emotions online after he conducted a DNA test on his newborn just hours after delivery while his wife was still recovering in the hospital. The unexpected test revealed that the child he believed was his was, in fact, not biologically related to him, leaving him devastated and grappling with intense emotions.
This startling revelation surfaced on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), where the man anonymously shared his story and confession through a link. His narrative quickly gained attention and generated a significant response from the online community.
According to his account, shortly after his wife delivered their child, he discreetly arranged for a DNA test to determine the baby's paternity. However, the results left him reeling, revealing that he was not the child’s biological father. The shocking news came as an overwhelming blow to him, and he chose to withhold the information from his wife, who remained unaware of the test and its outcome.
Given his wife's delicate health condition following childbirth, the man decided not to confront her about the DNA result. Instead, he took some time to reflect, temporarily leaving his home and relocating to Abuja, seeking space to process his thoughts and emotions.
In his words, he recounted, “Baba Wiz, it’s mind-blowing. My wife had a baby last week, and I secretly did a DNA test while we were still at the hospital. The baby isn’t mine. I’ve locked my house and am now in Abuja, trying to cool off.”
He also revealed, “I live in Enugu, and she’s still in the hospital with her mom due to some minor complications. I couldn’t confront her because she’s in a vulnerable state.”
The post generated significant discussion, with concerned readers flooding the comments section with various pieces of advice and emotional reactions, expressing both empathy and strong opinions on the situation.
See some reactions below:
@maziechidiime: “Biko kindly pay up the hospital bills and send her some cash to hold on to, then break the news to her mother before 3 days. Her mother will move her to the village from there. Women know what they are doing. She knows the biological father too.”
@pappyjayfresh: “You even get pity, you try. Person wey go bring another pikin for you no get the tiniest pity for you at all. There you go!!!”
@Truthster24: “Get the DNA results, scan them, open a WhatsApp group, add all her family members and post the result and inform them that the marriage is over. Do this and never show your face again until you go to dissolve the marriage in court.”
@Ishow_leck: “God abeg oooo. This is why they said that DNA is more important than the naming ceremony. You’ve done so well, man. The fact that you pitted her condition and worked out silently is nice.”
@Ne0_0fficiall: “Abandon them there in the hospital and move on with your life. Don’t fall for the tears or any sort of plea & manipulation. Paternity fraud is genuinely the most devilish thing any woman can do to a man. Another man gets to fvck for free and leave while you bear responsibilities.”
@LyndaUdoji: “This is a very smart one. I love it. Let me give you more info, DNA can be conducted as early as 5 months into pregnancy. So you fit abandon am with the belle sef once you find out the foetus is not yours.”
@drarigbabu: “Tell her ur findings while she is still in the hospital. Check that the baby is also hers. Because u said she has some complications, meaning they cld have taken the baby to the neonatal unit. Unfortunately, new born babies sometimes get mixed up in the hospital.”
