Nollywood actor Yomi Fabiyi has reignited his campaign for justice in the controversial death of late singer Ilerioluwa Imole Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, by releasing explosive WhatsApp conversations with the singer's brother.
Shocking Revelation in Private Chats
In a dramatic social media post on his Instagram page, Fabiyi shared private messages exchanged with Mohbad's brother, Hadurah Aloba, that contained startling allegations about the circumstances surrounding the musician's untimely death in 2023.
The chat records reveal that Hadurah claimed to possess video evidence that could potentially resolve the ongoing controversy about what exactly led to his brother's tragic passing. According to the disclosed conversation, the video allegedly shows events that directly implicate Mohbad's widow, Wunmi, in the incident that cost the singer his life.
Financial Demand for Evidence
Perhaps the most shocking aspect of the revealed conversation is the financial demand made by Hadurah. The chat shows that Mohbad's brother requested the sum of three million naira (N3,000,000) from Fabiyi before he would agree to share the purported video evidence.
Fabiyi's response in the chat indicated his willingness to meet the financial demand and also offer assistance with police proceedings related to the case. However, when the actor failed to immediately transfer the requested amount, Hadurah allegedly threatened to take the video evidence to other parties instead.
Specific Allegations Against Mohbad's Widow
The WhatsApp conversation contains specific claims about the events leading to Mohbad's death. According to Hadurah's messages, Wunmi allegedly pushed Mohbad, causing him to hit his head on the floor, which ultimately resulted in fatal injuries.
This represents one of the most direct accusations made publicly against the singer's widow since his controversial death last year. The allegation adds another layer of complexity to the already convoluted case that has captured national attention.
Previous Arrest and Reconciliation
This is not the first time Hadurah has been involved in controversy surrounding his brother's death. Records show that he was arrested last year in connection with the investigation into Mohbad's passing, following a report filed by Fabiyi himself with the police.
The situation had previously reached a point where Mohbad's mother publicly expressed fear for her surviving son's safety, specifically mentioning Fabiyi's name in her emotional outcry. However, the parties later reconciled and even held a joint press conference where Hadurah clarified his knowledge about his late brother's death.
Fabiyi's Renewed Justice Campaign
Yomi Fabiyi had temporarily paused his activism for Mohbad to support his colleague, Baba Ijesha, who was facing assault charges involving a minor. Now, the actor has returned to the Mohbad case with renewed vigor, directly appealing to President Bola Tinubu in his recent posts.
In his social media statements, Fabiyi made the serious claim that someone close to the president might be protecting the individual responsible for Mohbad's death. This represents a significant escalation in his campaign for justice and indicates his determination to keep the case in the public eye.
The actor had previously shared similar WhatsApp conversations several months ago, threatening to implicate both Wunmi and Hadurah in the death of the popular singer. He has consistently promised not to rest until those responsible for Mohbad's death are brought to justice.
As the controversy continues to unfold, fans and concerned Nigerians await further developments in the quest for truth about what really happened to the talented singer whose life was cut short under mysterious circumstances.
