Celebrity Dad, Rotimi Salami On Why Paternity Fraud Should Be Criminalized Like Rape 

Nollywood actor, Rotimi Salami has called on the government to make paternity fraud a crime just like r3pe.

The dashing dad of two advocated for this on his Instagram page.

In his post, Salami noted how rape is a major offence and wants paternity fraud to be one too.

According to him, the emotional pain experienced by a man who discovers that the child he has been raising is not biologically related to him is comparable to the pain experienced by a woman who has been raped.

In his submission, paternity fraud should also be criminalized in the same way as rape.

He wrote:

“Paternity fraud should be criminalized just like rape. The experience when raped is the same a man goes through when he finds out he’s been raising another man’s child. Damn!

“Rape is a major offence. Paternity fraud should also be. None of these 2 should be encouraged. Men’s mental health too matters.”
