Father Demands DNA Test for Justice
Joseph Aloba, the father of late singer Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, has insisted that a DNA test must be carried out. He stated that the test is essential not only to establish the paternity of Mohbad's son but also to help uncover the circumstances surrounding the singer's death.
Public Appeal for Continued Support
In a video shared on social media, Aloba appealed to the public to continue supporting the case. He expressed gratitude that many Nigerians remain interested in seeking justice for his son. According to him, the unresolved paternity issue is one of the reasons Mohbad's burial has been delayed.
He said, "I am grateful to Nigerians who have not given up on seeking justice for my son. The DNA test is a must; it will help us know the truth and ensure that Mohbad gets a proper burial."
Burial Delayed Due to Paternity Dispute
The paternity of Mohbad's son has been a subject of controversy since the singer's death in September 2023. The family has been unable to proceed with burial rites until the matter is resolved. Aloba emphasized that the DNA test is a key step in the investigation into Mohbad's death, which many believe was not natural.
The case has drawn widespread attention, with calls for a thorough investigation from fans, celebrities, and human rights activists. The Lagos State Police Command has been investigating the circumstances of Mohbad's death, but no conclusive results have been released.
Public Interest in Justice
Aloba's appeal reflects the ongoing public interest in the case. He thanked Nigerians for their support and urged them to remain vigilant. The delay in burial has been a source of pain for the family, but Aloba insists that the truth must come first.
