Headless body of 68 year old Briton found somewhere in the southwest
Just saying ...

Nigeria really creates reetards.

This is the point you have to make and your contribution to a heart-wrenching story.

You are really a worthless animal that Boko Haram, Bandits, Kidnappers, armed robbers, NPF or Nigerian Army have to do the needful to.

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

How father is a Yoruba man from Nigeria. There is nothing travelled about it. These genealogy companies don't have enough info on our par tof Africa. We are not Spain that has been through a lot of mixes. We aren't Ethiopia either.

Think of it this way. If anyone from his father's side has ever left the country, had kids, or had anything to do with the genealogy database, he will get a match. This may be his uncle or aunts or their kids or grand kids.
This is not perfect but it is better than nothing. It will give him a starting point.

Nigerian DNA’s are not in those databases. We mostly know who we are and where we are from, so no use. It’s those who don’t that are in there fully that’s why they cannot trace their DNA to specific families in Africa.

I think he should check on the family of the man he checked on Facebook . It could be the man's fathernand not the one on facebook . I also did a quick Facebook check and saw that the man is late. But the man's father could be the person cos considering that the late man bio said he was born in 1960, wilst he was born earlier . So the man could have impregnated your mum in the late 50s and as he couldn't get your custody, decided to move back to Nigeria to start a family afresh hence the late one was born in 1960.

Another thing is that, most professional wants one of their child to study the course alongside them. So why the late man studied architecture cos his father might be an architect.

Get down to the internet and check the man's bio in any NIA journals for his address, meanwhile, there is someone on the man's page that eluogised him after his departure , kindly check on the dude . I would have been of help as an Architect but I advice you get someone in the NIA. Thanks

Ok since this is a hard concept to grasp for you guys, let me give it to you barney style.
To create a database of this nature, a seed metrics is introduced. It is this seed metrics that forms a baseline for all other database. So before any clients' DNA was taken, there were people from all over the world who were paid to have their DNA as the baseline.
So there is a Nigerian DNA in the database, there are many Nigerians in his shoes who do not know who their parents are and they have tried the genealogy approach.

So true. That group is amazing. Lots of mysteries solved there.

But if you read up, you'll see that the mystery has already been solved here.

Information says the father died long ago in a ghastly car accident.

Why you have not been able to locate your father or any of his relations is that you have either by omission or commission mis-spelt his surname which should be ODEINDE and not what you are currently brandishing. Kindly get in touch with me on 07019367112 for solution. Thanks.

Where do you get this lie from. Who has been collecting Nigerians DNA over the years. In fact, there is poor record of Africans DNA info. That's good and bad. Good in the sense that if the info get in wrong hands, they can easily design killer germs to wipe majority of Africans. An herculean task because unlike Europeans and other homogeneous race, Africa's genetic diversity is legendary. It is bad because it's tough to make good drugs for Africans to fight diseases because it require adequate DNA information of the population.

Wow. Just wow. Boy you about to piss me off with this ignorant bs you just posted. Who is trying to wipe you out? Boy you are not that important. Look at the malaria drugs you a shoving down your pie hole, who made it, all the imported wine you drink, can you tell me the chemical constituents of it. Look at you begging for vaccine and other medications, you think if you are that important that they want to kill you that they wouldn't have done it since. Why are people here so proud of their ignorance.

On the subject of Nigerian DNA, maybe you don't know how DNA work. It doesn't have to be your father or mother. Trace DNA from a lost relative can link you together. That is how people like TD Jakes could tell you that he is from the Edo region of Nigeria.

Please read a book before you come to argue with me on a public forum.

It must be so hard not knowing who your father is. Since someone said the dad died in the 80s, I pray that the good Lord lead him to his relatives. Knowing your root is everything!

Sad that he was born when racism is at its peak. It's also unfortunate that he was born by a terrible mother who doesn't want to associate with her own son.

It was very common in the 50s up to the early 70s. where many Nigerian men who came to study in the UK,had relationships with white girls from low income families back then and got them pregnant.

People like Daley thompson, the Fashanus, Kris Akabusi are products of those periods

She and her family rejected the child because he is black. Racism was at its peak back then. It amounts to shame and stigma in the society. Inter-racial marriage or birth was frowned at and discouraged, he was merely an unfortunate victim.

What you don’t understand is there are not a lot of familial DNA in that database that will be useful for him to trace his family members.

The UK is the worst place for marriages of mixed colors and am specific on black and white marriages.
If not for the 21st century, I would call it a taboo.
The UK is so so still unaccepting of black and white marriages, if a royal family could deny their own because he got married to a black American woman not even African woman oh... Let alone a regular street lad or lady.
No let anybody deceive you say British woman is crazy into black dudes for marriage oh, na naija dey marry naija for UK oh

A family that actively participated in the slavery and colonization of Africans, a staunch white supremacist family who treated blacks less than animals and exploited us massively NOW one Royal son wants to marry someone they consider less than human; do you think they will give him a heroic welcome? That’s the issue with harry and Meghan.

My comments are personal opinions which stems from facts as well, neither am i disputing your personal experience.

The major problem interracial marriages are facing in the west is racism. It’s not illegal and it’s not uncommon , but racism has made life difficult for interracial couples from family to society.

Some whites wouldn’t want their child to experience racism hence the reason some of them wouldn’t marry outside their race but it doesn’t mean they wouldn’t flex with blacks too … those who don’t care about the aftermath of their decision still go ahead with it!

There are some groups of black too who oppose interracial marriages and any type of relationship with white people as well

Everyone with different motives for doing things.

There are numerous stories of couples who have shared their experiences in inter-racial marriages ( it quite challenging tho’)

Na racism spoil everything, no b say we no wan marry ourself

You speak with so much certainty like you control this data base. Like you know every Nigerian outside this country or their history or choices that they have made. The concept of seeding is intentionally importing data to for baseline. The company will pay several people from different parts of the world to get their data and that will for the bases of the database. Since the Trans Atlantic slave trade was majorly from west Africa, and the majority of people trying to find their roots are African Americans, the company will pay AFRICANS to get their DNA.
