DNA testing has been around for some time, however, its accessibility has expanded to third world countries like Zimbabwe. Some would say this technology has caused nothing but harm to families. Others are of the opinion that this is the greatest thing to have happened to relationships.
The reasoning behind people’s dislike for DNA testing is that ever since the beginning of time, our forefathers faced similar situations. However, for the sake of building strong societies with intact families they are said to have stayed with their wives even amidst doubts.
Other’s say that women have had to stay strong and hold the family together even despite a husband’s unfaithfulness therefore DNA gives men the unfair platform to not put in the same effort.
Such was the case when a Mufakose man who had been married to his wife for 13 years discovered that his second child wasn’t his. He was alerted of the affair by the wife of the man she had had the affair with during lockdown. Upon confrontation, the wife confessed and the cheated man took the matter to the police.
Because of rumours spreading that one of his children was fathered by the man she had had an affair with, the matter was taken to the Global DNA Zimbabwe. The man broke their 13 year old marriage on camera.
Watch the exact moment the results were revealed:
In various DNA shows, not many have broken of their marriage in this way on camera, but at times it was hinted. A similar family shaking situation took place but it presented an embarrassing situation. The wife blatantly denied ever in her life having relations with ex-boyfriend who turned out to be the father of her child.
Given scenarios like this, would you agree that DNA tests should be mandatory as many Zimbabwean men suggested?
