A video showing the traditional wedding ceremony of late Nigerian singer Ilerioluwa Imole Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, has emerged online, directly contradicting claims made by his father that the singer was never married to Wunmi, the mother of his child.
Father's Claims Spark Controversy
The video surfaced after Joseph Aloba, Mohbad's father, publicly stated that his late son was never married to Wunmi and made several allegations against her, including accusations of infidelity. The elderly man's comments had sparked widespread discussion among fans and the Nigerian entertainment community.
In response to these claims, one of Mohbad's close friends, identified as Damola, shared visual evidence of the singer's traditional marriage ceremony. The footage shows Mohbad and Wunmi dressed in matching lace and aso-oke attire, celebrating their union in what appears to be a lavish ceremony.
Wedding Celebration Details Revealed
The newly surfaced video provides clear evidence of the couple's traditional wedding, showing them surrounded by friends and family during the celebration. Mohbad's groomsmen wore coordinated outfits and were seen displaying bundles of cash, which they sprayed generously during the ceremony in keeping with Nigerian wedding traditions.
The celebrants were captured dancing and singing along to Mohbad's songs while enthusiastically flaunting wads of cash. The atmosphere appeared joyful and celebratory, contrasting sharply with the current controversy surrounding the late singer's family.
Fans React to Video Evidence
Nigerian music fans have reacted strongly to the wedding video, with many directing their criticism toward Mohbad's father. Social media comments show fans urging Joseph Aloba to focus on burying his son and let him rest in peace, while others stated the video provided sufficient evidence to prove his claims were inaccurate.
Several commenters also joined the father in suggesting that Wunmi should take a DNA test to settle the ongoing controversy surrounding paternity of her son. This comes after Mohbad's father had previously expressed his desire for a DNA test to be conducted on his grandson.
Wunmi has since responded to these demands, revealing that her father-in-law has been preventing her from taking the DNA test despite his public statements. She has appealed to Nigerians to ask Joseph Aloba to provide court papers if he genuinely wants the test conducted.
The late singer's mother has also come forward, sharing details of threats she and her son have received amid the growing family dispute. The situation continues to develop as fans and the media await further clarification on the matter.
