Don't Sue him now, wait till you are fully independent/financially buoyant before you sue him. Also, after you sue him, you will be totally alienated and hated by your family, ARE YOU READY FOR THESE? You will need emotional support, as you would be emotionally shattered, you will need some open arms to fall into cuz no man Is an island, so maybe you should consider suing him after marriage. One thing is certain, and it's the fact that he will definitely open up with the use of force, since he has rejected the peaceful measures you used.

Suing him won't help you make things easy, instead they'll get so bad!
Why not try going through elders within your family, like your dad's parents or even a pastor he respects in his church.....it'll be better this way even though it might take longer time than necessary for the truth to come out.

Take things easy, it's best to

You alone cannot be involved in this puzzle , time, energy and resources have to be spent.there has to be tracing of your dads geneology and place of origin etc.and you have to provide some facts that would assist in your search.or else you should forget.it is like you are looking for a pin in a haystack.without vital facts from you the case is a dead end even the best private investigators here in Nigeria whold run into a brick wall and keep on deceiving you and run your resources.if you have some vital facts that would assist.you can contact me and I would do my possible best.the first question I would ask do you have proof your mum is alive.or part of the investigation is to find out.cheers.

I am not super rich but comfortable and can handle legal fees. Marriage is not an option for me because I made up my mind as a child that I will never marry. I don't want to digress from the point, I just want to say that I don't need any open arms except my real mothers own and can handle the financial burden. I am already an alien in my family so no sweat.

I have been to my village twice (my grandpa's burial and sisters traditional wedding)since I was born and we never spent up to 48hours on both visit. We were also lucked up in my dads house (especially me), we only come out supervised and closely watched since my dad say everyone there is a witch or wizard. Come to think about it; I should trace that village. Please are you private investigator? If yes please may I know how you can assist and the financial implications.

How is suing your dad even going to help your situation?

Your dad can simply claim your biological mother is late...and she might even be so, considering how she never tried to look for you or contact you in any way possible.

If she's alive, and something serious went wrong between her and your father...that should not have stopped her from trying to get in touch with you somehow, even through legal means.

There's no court (customary or civil) that will completely alienate a child from the biological mother.
There must be something very serious that kept her away and the fact that your birth certificate names your step-mum as your biological mum says a lot.

They seem to know so much and won’t tell you, but I’ll suggest you do this search hunt on your own. It might sound scary, but you have to be strong and alert. I’m sorry you have to go through this. Don’t give up yet

My father will kill if I go that public.

Be careful not to lose everything.
Remember, you don't know what your biological mum is like or if she's worth risking everything for.
At least, you have a roof over your head and a family to call your own.
Give the search all you've got without doing irreconcilable damage, after that, you let go and let God.

If you have older siblings, it explains it to an extent; you might have been a product of infidelity on the part of your dad, your stepmother accepted you and took it out all on you.

Because you don't know the circumstances surrounding her leaving and not returning, don't make the conclusion that she dumped you for your wicked stepmother to raise, at least not yet. I pray you're able to get a head start in locating her.


I don't think she's wicked, otherwise she'd have told and reminded her countless times that she's not her mother and for her to go look for her real mother.
Besides, she was likely cheated on.

I will advise that u let it be for now.
Be independent, even marry( then they will see you as no threat) then advertise it on Facebook or Twitter.

U are using emotions instead of your head and emotions don't solve problems. Also, bear in mind that u may not like what u will see at the end of the tunnel though.
That's why I said u have to be emotionally attached to someone first.
It will be even better if u have a kid before embarking on such journey.

It would have been better if she told me; not telling me robbed me of all my rights... She talked me out of many open doors because I thought I was being given motherly advise; I can't fully explain the scope of how I had to start fending for myself early while my siblings where all sent to the US for studies. I started making progress when I stopped telling her my plans. I have nothing against her and am thankful to her for making me very resilient but finding my mum is important to me.

A friend told me that maybe the person I am looking for doesn't want to be found?
You won't understand how I feel if your not in my shoes. I just need closure.

If I sue my dad and step mum, and demand DNA tests since they both claim my step mum is my real mum; the court will compel them to submit themselves to DNA testing.
When the results come out negative everyone will start talking.

I think its the best option for me now.

I just took time to read your thread and responses, I must confess that I am touched. I observe you even spoke well of the parents who treated you badly at childhood, it shows you have a good heart, thanks be to God that you came out of it. I don't know if you have engaged in a legal battle before, talkless of a type like this, it is not a joke, especially with the outcome, it is you versus your entire family. Believe me you need emotional backup, lest you will break down on the long run, already i saw where you mentioned talking about ''committing suicide'', hope you are not a type that sees suicide as an option, hope it was just a mere threat. I have seen a little case of family legal issues, it is not easy, be careful. Fact is, WHATEVER IS THE MEANS THROUGH WHICH YOU ENTERED THIS WORLD, YOUR DAD OWES YOU A DUTY OF TELLING YOU WHO YOUR MUM IS, IT IS YOUR RIGHT. Since you claim to have explored all available avenues to find out the truth, I advise you try spiritual means, we still have few prophets who can see the past, and speak the truth. I don't mean native doctors or satanic agents. If the spiritual route fails, then you can go ahead using the courts. By the time your parents are threatened with a compulsory DNA, they will speak the truth without waiting to carry it out.

You said you do not want to marry, is it a personal decision? Or is this decision as a result of the hurts and trauma? If it's the former, fine, but if it's the latter, I advise you open your heart for love.

But for the record, the relative told me that my father paid my real mother's dowry when he Briefly separated from my step mum but returned it afterward after sending her out to bring my step mum back. I do not care what the history is; I just want to know my real mum.
Try to find out the people present at the ceremony, ask the relative who opened up to you to refer you to someone who can talk, do you mean there is no one in your family who can stand up to your Dad. If you continue to keep quiet, you won't find out the truth which is convenient for both your Dad and step mom.

Since your Dad hates the spotlight seeing as he asked you not to put his name on your death note. Pay for a page on a popular newspaper, display his information and picture, display your baby pics, and your info too, include dates, and locations, ask the woman who married him and had a child with him to come forward. Be as emotional as possible. Some of her relatives or friends might help you out. Pay for subsequent publications you can afford. Your Dad will forgive you at last.
