A Nigerian man shares an emotional account of his collapsed marriage after a series of DNA test debates with his wife led to the truth about their two kids.
In an anonymous post that has gone viral, the man detailed how he supported his family from Canada for five years, sending money for their upkeep, renovating their home, and even furnishing his in-laws’ house.
As the opportunity to reunite opened, he began the process of bringing his wife and two children to Canada, which required DNA tests for visa documentation.
The situation took a turn when his wife vehemently opposed the DNA test, calling it “stupid and insulting.” Her reaction aroused his suspicions, prompting him to handle the testing process during a visit to Nigeria. The results confirmed his worst fears: the two children, aged 7 and 5, were not his biological offspring.
“I left my wife and kids in Nigeria to move to Canada for five years. During that time, I was sending money, renovating our house, and furnishing her parents’ house.
I was also planning to do the same for my parents. Eventually, I got the chance to bring my family to Canada, so I took care of their passports and paperwork, and was waiting for the DNA results. I wasn’t even bothered; I trusted my wife.
We met when I was in school. I remember one weekend when I called her, and she told me she was in church. For some reason, one of my friends drove to my house and invited us both to come over, so we stopped by the church, only to discover that it was locked.
I called her, but her phone was switched off. I kept calling, but she didn’t answer. I even called her classmates, who said they hadn’t heard from her. I became disturbed and asked my friend to drop me off at home, but he insisted that she was safe.
After about three hours, she started calling me. I rushed to pick up the call and asked where she had been. She told me she was at church. I replied that I had been there, and she said, “Oh, they locked the front door; we came in through the back.”
I argued that I heard no sounds. She then said, “If you don’t want to believe me, then that’s on you.” let it slide. We had the normal ups and downs of a relationship until we graduated and got married, eventually having two children.
Now, I find myself deep in thought while I was sending the DNA information for my kids. I came to Nigeria specifically for that purpose. When the topic of DNA came up for the visa application, my wife said she wasn’t going to go because it was stupid and insulting to ask for DNA testing.
She became angry and insulted the whole process. Every time I mentioned the DNA test for our kids, she got very defensive and upset. So, I came down as per the doctor’s orders, got the swab, and travelled.
After two weeks, she didn’t know that was why I had come because I had started to have doubts. The results are out, and the kids are not mine. I have cut off communication and moved to a different state. I have been raising a 7-year-old and a 5-year-old as my own. I am now MIA… and I believe she was sleeping with the choirmaster.”
