When Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, better known as Mohbad, died on September 12, 2023, the shockwaves were instant. Two years later, the music has not faded, but the questions have not been answered either. His voice lives on in playlists, tribute concerts, and candlelight processions, yet his remains still lie in a morgue, caught in a web of investigations and family disputes.
Mohbad’s final hours were marked by sudden illness after receiving injections from an auxiliary nurse. Within hours, he collapsed, was rushed to Perez Medcare Hospital, and declared dead on arrival. The speed of his burial the very next day in Ikorodu stunned fans and critics alike, igniting suspicions that important medical and legal procedures had been bypassed.
The Lagos State Police later ordered an exhumation, but decomposition made it impossible for pathologists to pin down the true cause of death. Toxicology tests revealed traces of antihistamines, though not enough to kill. Possible triggers like allergic reactions or drug sensitivity were mentioned, but none confirmed. The coroner eventually recommended that the nurse involved face trial for negligence and illegal practice.
While the legal system drags on, the singer’s family has been embroiled in its own turmoil. His father, Joseph Aloba, has become the loudest voice demanding justice, even releasing a tribute song to mark the anniversary. At the same time, a court-ordered DNA test to confirm the paternity of Mohbad’s young son, Liam, has deepened public interest in the family dispute.
Fans, however, remain united in his memory. The #JusticeForMohbad movement still trends, with vigils and tributes organised both online and in the streets. For many, Mohbad represents not just a lost star but a symbol of the dangers artists face behind the glamour of fame.
Two years on, Mohbad’s story remains suspended between grief and justice. Until the courts deliver a clear verdict and his body is finally laid to rest, the chapter remains painfully unfinished.
