Nigerian singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, known professionally as Mohbad, tragically passed away in September 2023 under suspicious circumstances. Now, after a highly anticipated seven-month wait, the autopsy results are in, but they offer little solace. The cause of death remains undetermined, sparking outrage and frustration among fans and fueling speculation about foul play.
Suspicious Circumstances and Public Outcry:
Mohbad’s death followed a performance, and the details surrounding it raised red flags from the beginning. Public pressure mounted for a thorough investigation, leading to the exhumation of his body despite a hurried burial. This decision reflected the public’s deep concern and their desire for justice.
Fingers Pointed, Questions Remain:
Associates of Mohbad, including his ex-label manager Naira Marley and friend Sam Larry, were implicated in his death, fueled by prior accusations of bullying from the singer himself. Mohbad’s wife, Wunmi, also faced scrutiny, with some questioning her role and requesting a paternity test for their child.
Autopsy Fails to Deliver Answers:
The long-awaited autopsy results have only deepened the public’s disappointment. The pathologist attributed the inconclusive findings to the body’s decomposition, highlighting the delay in conducting the procedure. This explanation fuels suspicions of a potential cover-up.
Social Media Reacts with Anger and Disbelief:
Online, Nigerians have expressed their outrage through a series of tweets:
- @Jaiyejejeomo: “This is a real jungle. Protect yourselves!”
- @MrsZanga: “Did anyone truly think this would be different?”

Looking Forward:
With the autopsy inconclusive, the path to uncovering the truth behind Mohbad’s death remains unclear. The public anxiously awaits the results of the requested DNA test, hoping it might shed some light on this tragic event.
