Joseph Aloba, the father of the late singer Mohbad, expressed his deep sadness upon learning that the National Medical Services Laboratories in Pennsylvania, USA, denied conducting a toxicology test on his son’s body. This revelation comes after the Lagos State Government claimed that the toxicology test was conducted at the US-based lab. However, the lab refuted this claim, stating that they do not have a case for Mohbad.
Aloba alleged that this denial indicates an attempt to cover up the case and conceal the truth. He was brought to tears upon hearing the news and expressed his sorrow over his son’s death. Aloba firmly believes that justice will be served in the end, as Mohbad had always stated that if anything happened to him, his family would seek justice on his behalf.
Aloba also called on Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu to investigate the officials involved in the autopsy process at the Lagos State Forensic and DNA Centre. He believes that they need to explain why this situation has occurred.
Mohbad, a former signee of Marlian Music, died at the age of 27 on September 12, 2023, under controversial circumstances that sparked controversies on social media. The Lagos State Police Command launched a special investigation team to probe his death, which led to the arrests of Naira Marley and Balogun Eletu, among others. Mohbad’s body was later exhumed for an autopsy to determine the cause of death.
The outcome of this investigation and the denial of the toxicology test raise questions about the transparency and handling of the case. A thorough investigation is necessary to ensure justice for Mohbad and his family.
