A Chief Magistrate Court in the Ikorodu area of Lagos State has granted the request to serve a notice of DNA test for the son of the late singer and songwriter, Ileriouluwa Oladimeji Aloba (also known as Mohbad), to his wife, Wumi.
Emmanuel Oroko, who is in charge of the legal team for the Aloba family, informed the court that attempts to serve Wunmi the court documents mandating the DNA test on her son by the Sheriff had failed twice. The Chief Magistrate ordered that Wunmi be served by posting the court documents at her last known address.
In a press statement signed by Monoplane Odumosu, a member of the legal team representing the Aloba family, and made available to journalists, it was disclosed that if the process was served on the last-known address of the respondent by order of the court, it would constitute good service and she would be aware of the pending legal action.
The Chief Magistrate permitted the order and ordered that the respondent be served by posting the court process to her last known address.
According to reports, the Aloba family is disputing the paternity of baby Liam and filed a petition before the Family Court seeking an order of the court against Wunmi to present herself and baby Liam for a DNA test at any recognized laboratory in Lagos.
