My heart was heavy; I wept bitterly – Man says after DNA test proved 3 kids were not his

-

A young man has recounted the emotional pain he felt after a DNA test confirmed his suspicion that three kids he had raised were not his biological children.

According to him, two of the children were twins from his ex-wife, whom he was pressured into marrying after she claimed he was responsible for her pregnancy.

“I was in school and very popular because I was an athlete, so most of the ladies were fond of me. One came to inform my father that she was pregnant for me, but I denied it because I was so sure I wasn’t responsible. However, her parents dragged us to court, and eventually, my father accepted it,” he narrated.

The situation, he said, cut short his education as his father made him aware he could not cater for him and the lady who bore twins in 2014.

“I worked tirelessly just to make ends meet and take care of my children and their mother. I got involved in galamsey, which I vowed never to do, and almost lost my life in the process,” he said.

For the third child, he explained it was from an ex-girlfriend with whom he reunited.

Narrating the harrowing experience, the man, who spoke under the condition of anonymity on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem, revealed he reunited with his ex-girlfriend after the mother of the twins abandoned them.

“They were just three months old, and my life was brought to a halt because there was nobody to cater for them so I could work. I decided to bring in my ex-girlfriend so she could take care of them while I went out to work,” he recalled.

The mother of the twins, according to him, later came to apologise, but her parents threatened to sue him if he married any woman aside from their daughter.

“I decided to marry in 2020, and I settled with the mother of the twins. I did all a husband would do for his family, but her attitude changed, and she started to disrespect me,” he said.

Fast forward, he disclosed his desire to conduct a DNA test heightened after continuously watching and hearing stories on TV.

He, therefore, decided to come up with a ruse to obtain a DNA sample from the children without raising suspicion.

“I told my wife I wanted to send them abroad, but she was unhappy after I mentioned DNA, and she fled with the kids for over a month.”

However, he eventually managed to carry out the DNA test on the twins, and his fears were confirmed.

“I was heartbroken, so I took all the children. I had two others aside from the twins, and the results revealed that only the first child was mine.

“Finding out that they are not mine after all these years, I don’t know the kind of pain any human being can go through more than that. My heart was heavy, and all I could do was weep. I’m just grateful to God I didn’t harm myself in any way,” he stated.

Despite the pain of wasting almost a decade of his life and resources on other men’s kids, he said he has found happiness.

He has remarried and fathered a baby who will be four months old on Saturday, January 11, 2025.
