Mother kicks as IG orders DNA test for nine-year-old

The Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, has ordered that a DNA test be conducted on nine-year-old Chidera Ekwerekwu following a protracted battle between the family of a late businessman, Vic

While asking the court to declare any result arising from the DNA test a nullity, Mrs Ekwerekwu, in the suit filed by her lawyer, C.C. Obikwelu of Chidiobieze Chambers in Onitsha, prayed that she be paid N6bn as damages by both the police and her deceased husband’s family.
