Mayorkun discusses DNA testing and prenuptial agreements

Nigerian singer Adewale Mayowa Emmanuel, known professionally as Mayorkun, has sparked public debate regarding marriage and paternity. During an appearance on the ‘In My Opinion’ podcast, the singer revealed his intention to require both a prenuptial agreement and DNA testing for any future children he has with a partner.

Mayorkun noted that his girlfriend expressed dissatisfaction with these requirements. He further stated that he had considered conducting a DNA test without her knowledge to establish paternity, remarking, ‘If it’s my child, no issues. If not, everybody will hear about it.’ His comments have prompted widespread discussion online concerning trust, marriage contracts, and paternity testing in Nigeria.
