MKO Abiola’s son, Abdul Mumuni has disclosed that his late father had 55 biological children, contrary to previous claims
Abdul Mumuni, in a conversation with ‘Mic On Podcast’, disclosed that DNA tests proved only 55 children were biologically his father’s, debunking the widely-held notion that Abiola had a large family of 103 children from 40 wives.
He explained that his father was supporting the education of 103 individuals, but not all of them were his biological children.
“DNA tests confirmed only 55 as his biological offspring.
“You know the Abiola family, we are not that much. People think we are a lot. We are only 55. Well, there were 40 wives. Then according to the will, I think about forty-something though. There were some wives that were not there at the end. But not at the beginning, but at the end. Most of the wives had maybe one or two for my dad. Not every one of them.
“When my father was alive, he was paying for 103 people to go to school. But like I said not all of them were his. So after the blood tests, we happen to be 55.”
