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 recognised 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.
