How accurate is this?

So many people in the west have located their lost relatives through dna database. You can see a lot of such testimonies on YouTube by these relatives. From a sibling that found his other adopted brother at birth to a child that found his biological mother. Unfortunately I don’t think that can work in Nigeria since we don’t have reliable dna database

he started searching very late, his dad will be around 90 now, so you are right, he will likely be dead

Dem go soon scam this one. Just get a 95-year old woman to play the role of his Aunt. Tell him his Dad passed away 30 years ago and milk him for whatever foreign currency he came with.
My advise to him is : abort mission, return to base.

Not everyone overseas is rich, most of them believe they owe their parents no financial obligations and lastly some of them wise pass you.

He waited 68yrs? His father would probably be from 88-92yrs now if he were alive. Probably trying to say the surname is Deinde or Oladeinde. Really sad when parents play games with their children’s lives. The father was willing to take him back to Nigeria, but the grandmother and mother will rather dump him in an orphanage for his life to be messed up.
God turned it around and he was raised in a good home. I don’t know why people can want to give children such a cruel fate. His chance of being adopted and treated well by a white family at that time was so slim too, he was extremely lucky.

The mother is still even rejecting him despite how accomplished he is, trying to cover secrets at the very old age of 88. So bad! I wish him success in his search and that he is loved and embraced by his Nigerian family. He deserves it.

That Arch Oluyemi Odeinde RIP whom you say is his uncle was born six years after him on March 25th 1960 at UCH Ibadan (i.e. University College Hospital) and so would be his half brother actually

Architect Oluyemi Odeinde's and possibly same for the 68 years old Mr Paul Bolton's father, is Architect Olufemi Abayomi Odeinde, who passed away in 1981, due to injuries sustained in a motor accident

Architect Oluyemi Odeinde passed away peacefully in his sleep in the early hours of Thursday March the 18th of 2021 and would have been 62 years old if still alive. He was born on March 25th 1960 and was interred on March 25th 2021. His dad and grandad passed at 59 years old, but he broke that jinx

Mr Paul Bolton, should start with getting the correct spelling of the surname of his father (i.e. Architect Olufemi Abayomi Odeinde) right first, then realise that he has plenty of the Odeindes residing in the UK

Why would you suggest the above? This man has been passing through lots of difficulties all his life. No contact with his biological mother as the woman doesn’t want to have anything to do with him.
He unfortunately didn’t know his dad and probably wouldn’t.
He has lived in orphanage till he was adopted.


Why would you be thinking of scamming him??

You are wired to think negatively and it’s bad.

Can this DNA genealogy be used to search for nigerian relatives in nigeria?
Let's just say, my whole family tree, is it possible?

No, not likely. Cos the database of DNA there is mostly for Americans and people living in the West.

The Odeinde family should come to claim their son, this one does not need their money or whatever so let them come out and receive him.

I'm saw his father must have died if his mum could ve 88 years.

It won't help him. Not many Nigerians are in their database and they don't have enough information on Africa genealogy to be helpful. Many of us know where we come from.

Techsupport:
He can start with DNA genealogy. stuff like ancestry.com, if he has any relative from his father's side that is the database, that will be his first link. Armed with these facts and a confirmed living relative, then he can make his way to Nigeria.

It not too late even if his father was now dead. At least he can trace his roots to a certain place and know his distant relations or even his step brothers and sisters

Too late. He should have put more effort into finding the man back in the day. With Facebook he would have searched for relatives as early as 2008 then found a way to his village. The only thing he’ll find now is a grave and step siblings he’d find difficult to connect with.

The guy is not serious at all. Social media has been around for almost twenty years now...if he really wanted to find his father, he would have found him long ago. Now, it is too late, cos his father is probably dead.
