Gbenga Adeboye’s family demands DNA tests for widow’s three children

Twenty-three years after comedian Gbenga Adeboye’s death, his family has demanded DNA tests for his widow’s three children amid disputed paternity allegations and renewed accusations concerning his property and final illness.

A fresh controversy has erupted over the paternity of late Nigerian comedian Gbenga Adeboye’s three children, 23 years after his death, following allegations by his sister, Sayo Adeboye.

According to P.M. News, Sayo made the allegations during an interview on Baba Olomi TV, demanding DNA tests to establish the children’s biological parentage.

“Brother Gbenga told Bro Femi that Igwe was his only son, but my brother did not come out openly to say it,” she claimed.

“Lara, go and repent. Jesus is coming soon. We need DNA tests; we need to know the real biological child,” she added.

The allegations followed claims by Adeboye’s widow, Omolara, that her husband’s relatives abandoned her after his death and interfered with his property.

His sisters disputed her account, raising further allegations surrounding his final illness.

However, the paternity allegations remain unsubstantiated, with no DNA evidence presented publicly.

Adeboye died in April 2003, aged 43.
