Joseph Aloba, the father of the late singer Ilerioluwa Aloba commonly known as Mohbad, has urged the Nigeria Police to summon both the deceased’s wife, Omowunmi and his brother, Adura, to shed light on the circumstances surrounding the late artist’s death.
In a recent press conference organized by actor Yomi Fabiyi who sought justice for Mohbad a video allegedly sent by the late singer’s brother, Adura, was shown, raising further questions about Mohbad’s demise.
Fabiyi subsequently suggested that Adura possessed crucial information regarding the singer’s death.
This assertion led to a confrontation between Mohbad’s mother, Abosede and Fabiyi during the press conference, as she took issue with the allegations directed at Adura.

In response, Mohbad’s father issued a statement indicating that his efforts to reach Adura who was present in the house when Mohbad passed away had been thwarted.
He voiced his concerns regarding Adura’s reticence, noting that he had declined to discuss the events leading up to Mohbad’s death.

The statement read, “I am calling on the Nigeria Police to summon my son, Adura Aloba and Omowunmi Cynthia Adebanjo, to provide insights into the death of my son, Ilerioluwa.
This is due to the recent world press conference organised by Mr Yomi Fabiyi regarding the alleged video Adura Aloba reportedly sent to him —suspected to be linked to Mohbad’s tragic demise in his home. Things could have been easy without Mohbad’s mother’s role in obstructing all my efforts to see and reach out to Adura.

“Earlier on, after Mohbad’s death, I and other members of my family made several attempts to communicate with Adura to tell me and the family what happened to his brother on that fateful day. Despite all our efforts, she blocked every avenue through which we could reach him.
“A few days ago, during an interview on STV’s morning show, I expressed my concerns about Adura’s silence. He was in the house when Mohbad passed away, yet he has refused to speak, likely due to the influence of people whose motives, in this case, remain unclear to me and the whole world. This is a clear case of meddling, which is tantamount to obstructing the wheel of justice.”

Mr Aloba continued: “I urge the police to provide security to ensure their safety now and whenever they come forward to share knowledge with the authorities. I believe their cooperation and testimony could be instrumental in shedding light on the circumstances leading to Mohbad’s death.”
