43 Places To Do DNA Tests In Nigeria
When a woman entertains multiple partners, it creates doubts about the paternity of a child born in that situation.
However, DNA test or “Paternity test” has become an excellent method to eliminate any doubt about who a child’s father is.
Paternity test is a DNA blood test used to determine the biological relationship between a presupposed father and child/children.
DNA testing can be a highly emotional process for everyone involved as the results from a DNA test can be life changing. However, there are also other reasons why the test is conducted.
For instance, it could be conducted to check genetic similarities, predisposition to disease, genetic mutations and defects, Visa and immigration application, Legal instructions in a will, Adoption & Child support, Establishing paternity in surrogacy and IVF pregnancies, etc.
Of course, it is called a paternity test because the focus is on the father. This is because the child is borne by the mother during pregnancy, well, except the child was conceived by IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) or by surrogacy.
So, are you doubtful about the true paternity of your child? Or have you been asked by legal authorities to supply evidence of your relationship to a child?
