The family of singer Mohbad seek court order for his son’s DNA test

The family of the late music star wants the court to direct his widow to submit her son for DNA.

The family of late singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, also known as Mohbad, has sought the order of the Magistrates’ Court sitting in Ikorodu, Lagos State, for a Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) test for Liam, the son of the late music star.

In a statement signed by a member of the family’s legal team, Monisola Odumosu, it was disclosed that the court order would direct that the DNA test be conducted in a recognised and accredited government or private medical facility within the state at the expense of the applicant.

The statement read, “A date has been fixed for mention of the DNA test application requested by the family of the late ace pop singer, Mr Ilerioluwa Promise Oladimeji Aloba (also known as Mohbad), who died September 12, 2023, in an unusual circumstance. All necessary legal apparatus are (sic) in place to see to the success of the matter.

“The application is at the Family Court of the Ikorodu Magistrate Court (MKD/31/FAM/2024), Joseph Aloba v Cynthia Omowunmi Aloba. The family, represented by the deceased father, is seeking an order of the court directing that a deoxyribonucleic acid test be conducted concerning the paternity of Master Liam Aloba, an alleged son of Mr Ilerioluwa Promise Oladimeji Aloba (deceased), in a recognised and accredited government or private medical facility within Lagos State, Nigeria at the expense of the applicant.”

According to Odumosu, the family also sought an order directing Mohbad’s widow, Omowunmi Aloba to submit herself and Liam, for the DNA test.

The legal team added that the application filed by the family also sought an order granting leave to the chief pathologist in charge of the remains of Mohbad presently at the Military Hospital, Yaba Lagos, to take samples of the body of the deceased to conduct a DNA test for Liam.

The statement, however, has it that an attempt to serve the court process on Mohbad’s wife on Friday, March 8, at her Lekki home was not successful.

“According to the process server, those from whom enquiries were made to serve the process on her said she had not been seen in the house recently. The legal team has said they will look at an alternative method to ensure that all the court processes are legally served on her,” it added.

Mohbad passed away at the age of 27, with circumstances surrounding his death sparking controversies on social media.

While the deceased’s father suspects foul play, he’s equally challenging the paternity of his grandson.

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.”
