Don Jazzy’s comment stirred conversation online about the importance of seeking clarity on a child’s true parentage.

Apparently backing the Mavin Records boss, Phyna advocated for legislation making DNA testing mandatory before a child’s naming ceremony.

The 27-year-old said, “I support DNA test over naming ceremony.

“It should be passed that it is compulsory immediately after birth (that) a DNA test should be carried out.”
