Mohbad’s family opposes late singer’s anniversary event
The family of Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, has appealed to organisations and individuals planning to celebrate the first anniversary of his death to suspend their plans.
This was contained in a statement signed by Monisola Odumosu, a member of the family’s legal team and obtained by PUNCH Metro on Monday.
The family expressed their desire to mourn their son in peace, without elaborate events that might affect their emotions.
“It has come to the attention of the Aloba family that some organisations have been planning to celebrate the first anniversary of the death of our late son and singer, Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba (Mohbad). The Aloba family wishes to appeal to such interest groups to suspend such ideas.
“The late singer is yet to be buried. As such, the family would wish the public to join them in prayers at his anniversary rather than organise any elaborate event that will affect their emotions.”
The family also expressed concern that some individuals and organisations might be planning to use Mohbad’s memory for commercial purposes.
This is as they appealed to them to seek approval from the family before proceeding with such a plan.
“It is no longer news that some individuals and organisations have been planning to carry out events to commemorate the late singer’s death.
“We will appeal to such persons and organisations to seek proper approval from the family before going on with such plans. The Aloba family would not wish the goodwill of their illustrious son to be employed for commercial purposes,” the statement added.
The family has urged individuals and organisations to respect their wishes and join them in prayers during this difficult time.
Mohbad, a former record label signee of Marlian Music owned by Naira Marley, died on September 12 at the age of 27, with the circumstances surrounding his death sparking controversy on social media.
The Lagos State Police Command however inaugurated a 13-man special investigation team to probe the death on September 18, 2023.
His death also led to the arrest of Naira Marley and controversial Lagos socialite, Balogun Eletu, aka Sam Larry, amongst others.
His corpse was exhumed on September 21, 2023, for an autopsy to unravel the cause of his death.
The state Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, tweeted in September 2023 that an autopsy had been concluded and the police were “awaiting results.”
In April, PUNCH Metro exclusively reported that the toxicology test carried out to determine the cause of the music star’s death had been concluded.
The result was sent to the pathologist who carried out the autopsy to analyse and interpret it.
Appearing before the coroner’s court, the pathologist disclosed that the autopsy could not ascertain the cause of Mohbad’s death because the corpse had decomposed.
The management of the National Medical Services Laboratories in Pennsylvania, United States of America, however, refuted the claim by the Lagos State Government that a toxicology test to ascertain the cause of the death of singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, aka Mohbad, was conducted at its facility.

Drama As Jesse Jagz Storms Daddy Freeze’s IG Live, Blasts Him And Other Nigerians For Discussing 2Baba’s Marriage (Video)
Rapper, Jesse Jagz, last night joined the Instagram live session of media personality, Daddy Freeze,to cuss him and other Nigerians for discussing 2Face Idibia’s alleged marital crisis.
Earlier on Monday, December 1, Tori News reported that a former manager of 2Face, Kaka Igbokwe, had an interview with Daddy Freeze on IG where he made some shocking allegations about 2Face’s marriage to Natasha.
Kala alleged that Natasha is severely abusive towards 2Face and that things are so bad 2Face feels like he is a ‘’House Husband”. He also alleged that the couple abuse drugs and would need Rehab and Therapy to heal.
He went further to claim that Natasha is now in control of 2Face’s finances and has been making bad decisions with the monies in her possession.
His revelation left many in shock, and calls were made for 2face to be “rescued”. The singer came out on Wednesday, December 3, to appeal to Nigerians to ‘’cease fire” as the hate on his wife Natasha is dangerous and puts her in harms way.
In the live session with DaddyFreeze, Jesse jags said 2Face is a legend and should be left alone. He went further to say he will be living Jos where he is based to Abuja to go and free 2Face.
His appearance and countenance during the live session however raised concerns amongst some Nigerians as he was smoking while speaking.
“I am physically heading from Jos to Abuja tomorrow morning. I am physically going to remove 2Baba make him go drink beer. Make him smoke Igbo” he said

This morning, 2Baba posted “Help Me” on his Instagram stories, but less than 20 minutes later, the message vanished.
For the past few days, his relationship with his current wife, Senator Natasha Osawaru, has been under serious scrutiny, as a series of public incidents have surfaced and fuelled widespread speculation about the state of their marriage.
His cry for help should not be taken lightly. But who will answer him?
Will it be his family, his close friends, or the entertainment industry that has benefited from his legendary career?
At this point, one thing is clear. The music icon seems to be calling for real support and those around him cannot afford to look away.

The social media accounts, Facebook and Instagram of popular Nigerian musician and activist Eedris Abdulkareem have been suspended by the management of the microblogging site Meta.

Released under his label, Lakreem Entertainment, on TikTok on November 29, 2025, the song is described as both a message to the US President and a sharp critique of Nigeria’s political elite.

While singing “dem dey fear Donald Trump,” the rapper positions the song as an effort to bring global attention to Nigeria’s deepening crises.
