Nollywood actor Yul Edochie says women who reject paternity tests are hiding something
Nollywood actor Yul Edochie has sparked controversy with his recent comments on DNA testing. In an Instagram post, Edochie stated that any woman who refuses a paternity test when requested is “hiding something,” adding that “a clear conscience fears nothing.”
His remarks followed ongoing debates about DNA testing in Nigeria, particularly after the widow of late singer Mohbad addressed paternity questions surrounding her son in an interview.

Edochie’s comments have drawn mixed reactions online. Some supported his stance, while others criticized him, questioning whether he had conducted DNA tests for his own children, especially amid rumors about his second marriage to Judy Austin.
This debate has reignited broader discussions about paternity fraud and trust in relationships across Nigeria.
Edochie argued in an Instagram post dated 21 February that a woman with a clear conscience should have no reason to reject a DNA test if requested.
