Mohbad’s Father Confirms Pasting Summons for DNA Test on Daughter-In-Law’s Gate

Joseph Aloba, the father of the late Mohbad, has confirmed pasting a court summons for a DNA test on his daughter-in-law Wunmi’s gate.

This comes after the Chief Magistrate Court sitting in Ikorodu granted the court order last Monday, April 15.

According to the Aloba family’s lawyer, Monisola Odumosu, who confirmed this on Friday, the notice was pasted at Wunmi’s last known address earlier in the day.

Odumosu said, “The law required that an application to use other legal means to effect service on the respondent be adopted. So as a result of the order granted by the court in this regard, we have served the notice, and it was posted at her last known address on Friday morning.”

“We expect her to be in court or her legal representation on May 14, 2024,” the lawyer added.

The family of Aloba, through Mohbad’s father, had filed a suit seeking a DNA test for his grandson, Liam.

The family sought an order from the court directing that the test be conducted in a recognized and accredited government or private medical facility within the state at the expense of the applicant.

It also sought an order directing Wunmi to submit herself and Master Liam Aloba for the DNA test.

The application filed by the family also sought an order granting leave to the chief pathologist in charge of the remains of Mohbad presently at the Military Hospital, Yaba Lagos, to take samples of the body of the deceased to conduct a DNA test for Liam.

The family’s lawyer, however, revealed that an attempt to serve the court process on Mohbad’s wife on Friday, March 8, at her Lekki home was not successful.”
