Nigerian singer, Adewale Mayowa Emmanuel, popularly known as Mayorkun, has revealed that he intends to conduct a DNA test before accepting any child born to his future wife as his own.
The ‘Body Cheche’ singer made the disclosure during a recent episode of the In My Opinion podcast, where he also discussed his plans to sign a prenuptial agreement before marriage.
Mayorkun said he had already informed his girlfriend about the proposed arrangements, but admitted that she was unhappy with his decision.

The singer said he had told his girlfriend that both a prenup and DNA test would be part of his plans for marriage and having children.
Mayorkun said, “I told my girlfriend we’d have to do a prenup and DNA test when she gives me a child, just to be sure. She got upset.”
He explained that he wanted the DNA test to establish paternity before taking responsibility for a child.

Mayorkun further disclosed that he had considered conducting the test without informing his partner.
“I have thought of doing the DNA test without telling her. If it is my child, no issues. If not, everybody will hear about it,” he said.
His comments have added to ongoing public conversations in Nigeria about paternity testing, marriage agreements and trust between couples.
While DNA testing has become a subject of increasing discussion among Nigerian couples and families, Mayorkun’s remarks remain his personal position on how he intends to approach fatherhood and marriage.
