Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>Lancelot Chibwana, a Zim dancehall artiste who claims to be the illegitimate son of veteran Sungura musician, Hosiah Chipanga, is at loggerheads with his alleged father after pushing for a paternity test.<\/p>\n

Chibwana is attempting to force Chipanga to undergo DNA tests to ascertain whether the veteran musician is truly his biological father.<\/p>\n

He claimed that Chipanga has been deliberately avoiding him since 2010 and has not been picking up his calls.<\/p>\n

Speaking in an interview with The Sunday Mail from his rural home in Watsomba, Chipanga insisted that Chibwana is not his son and will never go for a paternity test with him. Said Chipanga:<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t want to talk to Lancelot because he is not my son. I have nothing, absolutely nothing to do with him.<\/p>\n

I am not going for the DNA tests because I am 100 per cent sure that he is not my child.<\/p>\n

Of course, I once stayed with his mother, but he is not my son.<\/p>\n

He must mind his own business and leave me alone.<\/p>\n

Chibwana was born in Murehwa in 1988 and was raised by his maternal relatives after her mother, Memory Chibwana, died in 1994.<\/p>\n

He said that before her death, her mother had introduced him to Chipanga as his biological son.<\/p>\n

In 2005, Chibwana briefly stayed with Chipanga at his home in Dangamvura, Mutare before the pair moved to Harare.<\/p>\n

Chipanga then incorporated Chibwana into his band but their relationship took a nosedive after working together for five years.<\/p>\n

Chibwana had tried but failed to defraud Chipanga by attempting to change the ownership of his house by putting it into his name. Said Chibwana:<\/p>\n

Without informing my father, I had attempted to change the ownership of the house and put my name, but I failed.<\/p>\n

I was booted out of the house and he has since declared that he is not my biological father.<\/p>\n
