We Are Yet To Receive Mohbad’s Autopsy Report – Police

The Lagos State Police Command has disclosed that they are still yet to receive the autopsy result of late Afrobeats star, Ilerioluwa Aloba aka Mohbad.

The 27-year-old singer died on September 12 in controversial circumstances. Nigerians demanded for an autopsy to be carried out to ascertain the real cause of his death.

On September 21, exactly two months today, his body was exhumed from where it was buried in Ikorodu, Lagos state for an autopsy to be carried out.

On October 6, the state police command announced the autopsy had been concluded while results were being awaited.

Nigerians have been waiting anxiously for details of the result. However in a chat with Punch, the spokesperson of the command, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, on Monday, November 20, said the command is yet to receive the result.

 “The autopsy report has not been given to us. Some people have been carrying rumours that it’s ready. It’s one thing for it to be ready, it’s another thing for it to be given to us officially – that we would receive and sign a copy that we have received it. So, we don’t work with rumours, we work with facts.” he said.

The magistrate also called for cooperation in the investigation for speedy and fast justice delivery on the death of the singer, while advising that interested parties should not encourage delay in order for MohBad’s remains to be finally laid to rest.

This was even as an Assistant Superintendent of Police, Muhammad Yusuf, an investigating police officer attached to the homicide section of the SCID, stated that in the course of their investigation, there was no evidence beyond reasonable doubt that Naira Marley assaulted Mohbad, nor was there any evidence that Sam Larry and Naira Marley were linked with Feyisayo Ogedengbe, the nurse who administered the injection to the deceased.

Mohbad’s Contract With Marlian Music Was Fair – Music Executive, Abisoye

Abisoye ‘Cash ‘N’ Out’, the Nigerian music executive, has made a claim about the late Nigerian rapper Ilerioluwa Olademeji Aloba, aka Mohbad.

He claimed that claimed that the contract Mohbad signed with his former record label, Marlian Music, was “fair”.

Following his controversial death on September 12, 2023, many have condemned the treatment meted on Mohbad by Marlian Music boss Naira Marley and his associates after he left the record label in 2022.

While exiting the record label, Mohbad had, in a letter dated October 25, 2022, and signed by O.M Falade, his lawyer, cited the non-fulfilment of the terms of the contract signed in 2019 when he joined the record label while also accusing the label of refusing to pay him his royalties from monetised intellectual content and advances as mutually agreed.

Speaking in a recent interview with Arise TV, Abisoye claimed that he was privileged to access the contract the late rapper signed, insisting that it was “fair”.

He said it was a joint deal between the record label and the late artist. However, things didn’t go as Mohbad expected.

Abisoye said, “By right, I might not be able to speak about Mohbad’s contract with Marlian Music like that here. But because I’ve seen it before, I would say it was a fair one.

“In his defence, me and him [Mohbad] always talk about that contract. That contract was a joint venture. It means he comes to the table as who ever he is and the label comes to the table and they put two together and they make something which is a beautiful arrangement but some how it didn’t just go the way he thought it would go. And like I said, I won’t be able to speak more on that.”

Mohbad Was Never Arrested By NDLEA, Says Spokesman

The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency has spoken about the late singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, aka Mohbad.

The agency said that contrary to reports that went viral in the media and online, Mohbad was never arrested by the agency.

The spokesperson for the NDLEA, Femi Babafemi, said, “We also heard the unsubstantiated allegation on social media that Ilerioluwa Aloba, aka Mohbad, was arrested and detained by the NDLEA on February 24, 2022, and given a substance to drink. In response to this allegation, we wish to state categorically that Mohbad was never arrested; neither was he ever detained in the custody of the NDLEA on the said date or any other date before or after. The foregoing being the case, the issue of giving him any substance to drink does not arise.”

The NDLEA also stated that contrary to a claim by the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Idowu Owohunwa, that the police were expecting feedback from the anti-narcotics agency over an inquiry into the singer’s death, it had responded to the police’s inquiry since September 28, 2023.

In a letter dated September 28, and signed by the Deputy Commander-General of Narcotics, Josephine Obi, which was obtained by our correspondent on Saturday, the NDLEA categorically informed the police that Mohbad was neither arrested nor detained in the custody of the agency.

Babafemi added, “Following media inquiries on the claim by the Lagos State Police Command at a press conference on Friday, October 6, 2023, that it was yet to get a response from the NDLEA on social media allegations bordering on alleged arrest and detention of the late artiste, the agency will like to state that indeed, its response was sent and received by the police since Thursday, September 28, 2023.

“Indeed, to show the seriousness with which the agency treated the issue, our formal response dated Thursday, September 28, 2023, was sent by flight to Lagos, delivered and received by the police on the same day.”

While briefing the media on the results of the police’s investigation so far on Friday, October 6, Owohunwa said, “While re-assuring that the command will sustain its firm determination to ensure justice in this case, I wish to assure that the members of the public will be availed of any further development in relation to the outcomes of the autopsy and toxicology reports, DPP advice, feedback from NDLEA and any other development in the investigation into this case.”
