Joseph Aloba, father of late Nigerian singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, has reacted to the call for a DNA test to be conducted on his grandson.

During an interview with BBC Pidgin, Mr Aloba said he regarded his son as a buddy and that the two of them interacted like brothers.

He claimed that the controversy surrounding a DNA test on Mohbad’s son has spread throughout Nigeria and is now a national issue.

Aloba stated that the right thing should be done at the right time concerning the DNA.

He said: “This thing has become a majority thing, not only Nigeria. So they should do the proper thing at the proper time.”
