DNA Test: Court orders substituted service on Mohbad’s wife
A Magistrate Court sitting in the Ikorodu area of Lagos has ordered that singer late Mohbad’s wife, Wunmi, be served notice of a pending DNA application, by substituted means.
This was disclosed in a statement signed by a member of the legal team to the Aloba family, Monisola Odumosu on Wednesday.
Mohbad’s father, Joseph Aloba, in the application filed by the legal team, sought an order to serve Wunmi by posting all the originating processes and other processes in the suit on the last-known address of the respondent.
The statement revealed that the legal team had argued that the sheriff had attempted twice to serve Wunmi the court process but failed.
“If the process were served on the last known address of the respondent by Order of the court, it would constitute good service and she would be aware of the pending suit”.
The Chief Magistrate ordered that the respondent be served by posting a court process on her last known address.
