Mohbad’s Family Urges Public to Come Forward with Information Amidst Ongoing Investigation

The family of the late Nigerian singer, Mohbad, has appealed to the public to come forward with any information that may assist in the ongoing investigation into his death. In a statement released on Monday, the family’s legal team expressed concern over sensitive information being shared publicly by individuals on the internet.

Monisola Esther, a member of the family’s legal team, explained that such information should be made available to the Police instead of the public. “Given the nature of Mohbad’s death and the information being released to the public space, which ordinarily should have been given to the Police, the Aloba Family’s Legal Team wishes to advise that anyone with useful and relevant information that could aid in the search for and the circumstances leading to Mohbad’s death should reach out to the Legal Team to facilitate proper legal connectivity,” Esther said.

The statement also advised that the Police can be contacted to ensure the protection of witnesses and suspects. The coroner’s inquest has issued witness summonses for those relevant to its investigation. Mohbad’s father, Joseph Aloba, emphasized that his focus is on finding out the details of his son’s death and the circumstances surrounding it, rather than pursuing personal relationships.

The Coroner’s Court is deemed the best forum to disclose any information that could assist in the fact-finding mission of the court. This development comes days after Mohbad’s sister-in-law, Karimot, made a viral video on social media accusing his widow, Wunmi, of having a hand in his death. Karimot also claimed to have implicating information about Mohbad’s wife.

As the investigation continues, Mohbad’s family urges anyone with relevant information to come forward and cooperate with the authorities.
