How Paternity Issue Can Be Resolved Through Traditional Means – Elebuibon

A popular Ifa priest and Araba of Osogbo land, Chief Ifayemi Elebuibon, has disclosed that cases of paternity could be resolved through traditional means.

Osun Defender reports the rise in cases of paternity fraud in the country recently.

Speaking on Thursday while featuring at the Osun state Correspondent of the Nigeria Union Journalists programme tagged: “News Point” in Osogbo, the Traditionalist said Yoruba has traditional DNA which is very potent.

He said, “The race had enough traditional means to determine a child’s paternity that could be considered by whoever was interested in such investigation.

“Yoruba has traditional DNA and they are very potent. They vary from one family or compound to another. We are having a high rate of cases of paternity fraud now because people of our race have decided to abandon what belongs to them and embrace two foreign religions.

“In Yoruba culture, even during childbirth, paternity of a baby can be determined. In my own compound those days, a new wife would take oath before the Ogun shrine to remain faithful to only her husband.

”Traditionally, there are several ways we can determine the paternity of a child. Those means are cheap and safe but our people are not interested in them. They are alternatives available for those that are interested.”

He finally maintained that “total rejection of Yoruba culture was responsible for the high rate of infidelity in marriage.
