Counsellor Baka has highlighted the importance of DNA and why it is important for people who have second thoughts about the paternity of their kids to have it done. In a conversation with YEN.com.gh, he said:

DNA is a very difficult topic in marital issues, but it is very important. It is necessary for any man who has tangible reason to believe his kids are that of another man to have a DNA test done. This saves men from future regret and further problems. It may have a negative effect on the marriage, but it is more beneficial than not getting it done.
