Mohbad

Determining the actual cause of the death of musician Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly called Mohbad, may remain a myriad.

An independent forensic pathologist, Dr. Uwom Eze, who conducted a second autopsy and forensic medical review on the late musician’s body failed to determine the cause of his death.

Dr. Eze told the Lagos coroner, Magistrate Adedayo Shotobi, yesterday that the cause of his death could not be determined.

He said this was due to the advanced stage of decomposition and other changes in his body at the time his corpse was examined.

The coroner court sitting at the Magistrate Court, Ikorodu had in June 2024 issued an order for a second autopsy to be conducted upon the request of the Aloba family.

Dr Eze told the court that the cause of Mohbad’s death was unknown, but that he would not rule out severe reaction to an injection administered on him shortly before his death.

“‘Considering all the post-mortem findings including ancillary tests and available information, a major disruption of vital organ systems of the body with resultant fatality due to a severe and rapid hypersensitivity reaction to a substance administered by parenteral route is plausible.”

Dr Eze also said during his examination by Mohbad’s family counsel, Wahab Shittu (SAN) that the handling of the musician by the supposed nurse looked like a “medical misadventure. We were beaten by nature, as the body has undergone severe postmortem changes.

The injury he sustained can’t cause death, as it wasn’t a penetrative one.”

Dr Eze added in his report dated October 28, 2024 that the toxicological analysis also excluded the presence and role of any drug abuse and psychotropic drugs in the body samples tested.

“I saw nothing lethal or of toxicological significance that was given to him, but we can’t rule out a reaction.”

Other witnesses that testified included music promoter, Samson Balogun-Eletu, a.k.a Sam Larry.

In his virtual testimony, he denied bullying or assaulting the deceased as alleged.

He told the coroner that Mohbad owed him N2 million from a botched concert performance in Dubai, which had yet to be paid.

He asked the coroner to probe those who were with Mohbad before his death, as he was out of the country at the time.

Another witness, Fidelis Esandor, a car hire driver, said he drove Mohbad, his wife and others, Wunmi, to a show at Ikorodu few days to his death.

He said he witnessed a fierce quarrel between the couple and had to intervene at intervals.

He also testified that the musician got injured after hitting his arm on his windshield.

According to him, despite the bleeding, Mohbad wasn’t taken to a hospital or pharmacy, but was at home throughout the night until he left them by 11am the next day.

A fourth witness, Dr. Chigozie Owuala of Perez Medicare Hospital, Lekki, said Mohbad was brought in dead on September 12, 2023, after findings showed that he started convulsing and vomiting after a nurse injected him at his home.

He also noted that the death could be linked to late presentation of the deceased by the family and lack of proper diagnosis by a qualified medical doctor.

Further proceedings continue on April 25.

Nollywood actress and politician Tonto Dikeh has reconciled with her former husband, Olakunle Churchill, bringing an end to their decade-long public feud.

Tonto and Churchill were married in 2015, but their union collapsed less than two years later amid allegations of infidelity, intense public controversy and child custody battles.

In an emotional post shared on her Facebook page, Tonto attributed the reconciliation to divine intervention, humility and sustained prayers, stressing that what human efforts could not repair was healed through faith and obedience to God.

While describing the reunion as a divine restoration after years of public conflict and separation, Tonto Dikeh said peace has replaced chaos after nearly a decade of dispute, bitterness and broken communication.

According to the movie star, the renewed relationship was built on humility, forgiveness and love for their child, and encouraged people facing similar challenges not to lose hope.

She wrote, “We are living proof that the Word of God is eternal and unfailing. God is not a God who abandons what He has started. When He begins a work, He stays with it until it is completed.

“After ten long years of public battles, deep wounds, broken communication, bitterness, and pain, God stepped in. What looked ugly, impossible, and beyond repair has been touched by mercy. Peace has replaced chaos. Respect has returned where anger once lived. What human effort could not fix, God healed by salvation, humility, and the sincere prayers of a child.

“This restoration is not by might, not by wisdom, not by strength but by the Spirit of the Lord. When God moves, the human mind cannot comprehend the process. He softens hearts, silences the enemy, and rewrites stories that looked finished. Every plan of darkness has failed. Stubbornness has bowed. Pride has melted. Love has found its voice again for my child.

“I am deeply grateful to the father of my child Dr kunle for yielding to God’s word and choosing peace. Obedience to God always births restoration, even when the road has been long and painful. To anyone standing where I once stood, tired, wounded, misunderstood, and believing nothing good can come out of the situation.please hear this: God has not abandoned you. Your story is not over. What He has started, He will surely perfect. Keep praying. Keep choosing love. Keep trusting God even when it hurts.

“May this restored relationship remain built on the solid rock of God’s mercy, protection, grace, and mighty hand. May it stand as a living testimony that God never fails, never forgets, and never walks away from His own. If God did it for us, He can do it for you. To my spiritual father, Papa, thank you for grooming a God-fearing, impact-making woman out of a Total Mess.”
