We’ll Do Separate Autopsy On Mohbad – Family Reveals

The family of Ilerioluwa Aloba, the late Nigerian singer, who was better known as Mohbad, has said it will conduct separate autopsy test on the late singer.

Mohbad, 27, died on September 12, 2023. He was buried the next day in Ikorodu, Lagos.

The Lagos state government had called for a coroner’s inquest to determine the cause of death following public outcry.

Testifying at the coroner’s inquest on Wednesday, Richard Somiari, the director of Lagos State DNA and Forensic Centre, said the autopsy result on Mohbad would be ready in less than a month.

However, according to PUNCH, Monisola Odumosu, head of the family’s legal counsel, said the family will apply to the state high court to conduct a separate autopsy and toxicology test.

The lawyer said the family of Mohbad feels the test being conducted by the Lagos government is “taking time” and also expresses concerns about the process by which the autopsy was conducted.

Odumosu further claimed that no medical expert represented the family at the point the autopsy was done.

“We filed an application at the Coroner’s Court on Wednesday to conduct our own autopsy and toxicology test, but the Magistrate said he did not have the power to approve that and told us to approach the High Court,”
he said.

“We are already preparing our documents to go to the High Court so that we can ask for permission to organise our own autopsy and toxicology test. We have been planning this before now because we feel the government is too slow.

“They disclosed on a radio programme about three weeks ago that they were just about to send it to the US and that may take about 10 to 12 months, which is too long considering the fact that they had taken a sample from the body almost five months earlier. So why do we have to wait for so long?

“Secondly, when the autopsy was being conducted, representatives of the family should have been someone who is well-informed on the issue of the autopsy; an expert who would confirm if it was properly done. But they just called anyone.

“We are also planning to do it in the United States. Another reason why we took the decision was because, for instance, if someone is poisoned, at a point in time, it will evaporate, and no test can discover it. So, we don’t want to wait until that has happened before we think of doing our test and discover that nothing was found.”

DNA Was Not Part of Our Justice For Mohbad – Iyabo Ojo (Video)

Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has revealed that DNA test to determine Liam Light’s father wasn’t in the priority list for fighting for justice for late singer, Mohbad.
She made the statement during a recent live session on social media.
The actress stated that even if the paternity test proves to be a major distraction, it wouldn’t absolve his wife Wunmi Aloba of suspicion regarding whether or not Liam Light is the singer’s biological child.
Iyabo Ojo added that it is better to concentrate effort in identifying the killers of Mohbad as DNA issue is a family matter that should be resolved in private.
She concluded taht Wunmi is the only one who can decide whether or not to agree to the DNA test while waiting for the late singer’s autopsy results.
“DNA was not part of our justice for Mohbad, so it does not really concern us. But his dad came out to say he wants DNA because that was one of the distractions and narratives they brought out and he wants them to do it since they want to do it. Okay, that’s fine! But that’s a family matter, it has got nothing to do with justice for Mohbad,” she said.

I Didn’t Break Mohbad’s Neck – Late Singer’s Cousin Breaks Silence

Nigerian man, Darosha Losobeh, who is the cousin and personal assistant to the late Nigerian artiste, Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, has spoken about the late singer.

Darosha Losobeh broke his silence on the viral video of the singer’s coffin allegedly showing he had a broken neck.

Recall that the ex-Marlian record signee died at the age of 27 on September 12, and his death has stirred controversy with many Nigerians calling for justice for his sudden demise, leading to the arrest of his former boss, Azeez Fashola, aka Naira Marley and Samson Balogun aka Sam Larry.

The duo who were allegedly arrested for bullying the late singer have been released.

However, Mohbad’s friend, Primeboy, and the nurse who allegedly injected the late singer are still in police custody because they were tagged prime suspects in the case.

Reacting to the allegations of a broken neck from netizens on his Instagram story on Saturday, Darosha declared that he was not the one who broke the late artiste’s neck while begging those peddling the information to desist from it because it was affecting his mental health.

He wrote, “I’m so down to the extent that I had to write this up to clear this whole damn story about me going online that I bend my love’s neck; this is the craziest and saddest thing that ever happened to me, my whole life. That I broke my brother’s neck, seriously, this hurt me so much.

“What happened about the neck was that when we got to Ikorodu, we were told there was no space to keep his body at the mortuary, and we didn’t want him buried that night, so a worker there advised the family to pay for an ambulance and a coffin where we can keep him till morning and the same ambulance would drive him down to the place of burial.

“The whole family agreed to the idea because the ambulance that took us to Ikorodu was complaining that they had to leave the same night back to the island. It was only his mum that was not present there that midnight.”

Continuing, the late singer’s cousin stressed that the only issue that brought him into the picture was that he paid for the arrangement of the coffin and ambulance, maintaining that he never knew that the coffin was too small to contain his (Mohbad) whole body.

“The whole family saw his body in the ambulance before leaving for the burial ground in the morning, and no one complained about his head or anything. I didn’t go close to the ambulance because I was in shock, so I didn’t know of his neck until I saw it online, and that saddened me.

“The N1million I sent to his dad is not for him to spend because it was instructed that we should use the money in doing the burial arrangement, but unfortunately, the place we buried him is not nice to me and not secured, so I told his father to use the money to erect a fence for his safety. The whole team and family can testify to this because I have every proof, and I sent his brother the rest of the money when we arrived home.

“I was the first person that went to Panti to write a statement and called for questioning. You can go to Panti station to ask more about me, not coming online to say what you don’t know; well, I know it’s all for content, but God in heaven will judge you, tarnishing my image even with all that I am going through.

“About the salt, when my father died, a salt was placed on his chest till we arrived and I was told it was local embalming to keep him fresh till the whole family arrived, and I did the same thing because a lot of people were still coming to see him before leaving to Ikorodu that night.

“Lastly, about his properties and music catalogues, Mohbad has a lawyer that controls all of these things, and he has a contract with ONErpm, so all of these things are controlled by them, and his car is parked in front of his house at Orchid.

“I can’t drive his car because I have mine. If we really want justice, let the government work, and let’s wait for autopsy.  Stop bashing his loved ones. Abi una wants us to go depressed too #justiceformohbad,” he added.

We Have Informed Mohbad’s Father He Can Apply For The Release Of His Body But He Is Yet To Do So Because He Wants To Do A DNA Test – Police

The Lagos State Police Command, according to LIB, disclosed that they have informed Mr Joseph Aloba, the father of late Afrobeats star, Ilerioluwa Aloba aka Mohbad, that he can come and claim his son’s corpse.

According to the report, he is still yet to apply for the corpse to be returned to the family because he wants to perform a DNA test.

Recall that the mother of the singer released a video on Tuesday, November 21, saying that the body of the singer has been released to the father but he has refused for it to be reburied.

Findings by LIB showed that the police, having concluded the autopsy on the singer, informed the father that he can come forward to collect his body but the man is yet to apply for it.

A police source who spoke on condition of anonymity, said;

‘’The body is in the morgue. It has not been released. It wouldn’t be released to you and you wouldn’t come and pick it. The hospital wouldn’t allow it. Only the father can apply for the release of the corpse, only the father and the police has said any day he applies, he would get it immediately. We have told them, anytime they want it, just write an application but the father has refused to do that.

Technically, it is the father that is holding back. The father has said he is not taking it yet until they do DNA and that is their personal family problem. If the man writes today, of course it will be released and he must carry the corpse. You can’t write and keep it there. For who?”

Recall that the singer who passed away on September 12, was buried the next day, September 13. Following the controversy surrounding his demise, an autopsy was demanded for by Nigerians and his body was exhumed on September 21. It has not been reburied since then and the autopsy result is yet to be made public.

Mr Aloba has repeatedly insisted that a DNA must be done to ascertain the true paternity of Liam, the seven month old son of late Mohbad and his wife, Wunmi.
