In her popular TikTok video, Angie boldly stated that every man, particularly men who are living abroad, should make DNA testing a mandatory decision when a child is born.

She asserts that men do not need to inform or ask their partners to do the test because it is their right to know if the child is biologically theirs.

Angie then elaborated that many men living and working overseas experience mental and emotional stress and financial hardship to discover later in life that the child they mothered and supported financially and emotionally is not their biological child.

Concerning the ongoing case associated with Samuel Aboagye's death, Angie stated that it is "not looking good," and that this case "should be a wake-up call for both men and women." She went on to counsel the women in relationships and marriages to be faithful to only one partner to avoid the embarrassment and emotional pain that can arise from paternity fraud.
“Why would you bring a child to the world and leave the child’s bloodline to another man? Why would you do that to your child?” said Angie, who was disappointed by how many cases of paternity frauds are popping up.

She also advised men who suspect the child is not theirs to listen to their intuition. “If you feel something is off, go do a DNA test.

If it's negative, give the child to his or her rightful father,” she stated and insisted we should make DNA tests mandatory at birth to alleviate the basis for paternity questioning altogether, as so many cases of paternity fraud occur.

When some individuals in the comment section asked Angie about costs, she stated that DNA tests range from ₵3,000 to ₵4,000 in Ghana, and that this was a worthwhile investment for peace of mind and truth.
