The personal assistant to Mohbad, Adeyemo Boluwatife, has
stated that the late singer’s father, Joseph Aloba demanded for immediate
burial of his son after receiving N2 million from Davido.
Adeyemo said this while testifying at the coroner’s inquest
in Ikorodu on Wednesday.
The inquest which began on September
29, 2023, was set up by the Lagos State Government to unravel the cause of
Mohbad’s death.
Mohbad died on September 12 2023, under questionable
circumstances and was buried the following day.
Following the calls for justice across the nation, his body
was exhumed on September 21, 2023, for an autopsy by the Lagos State University
Teaching Hospital, LASUTH.
However, during the court sitting on Wednesday, Adeyemo, who
is also Mohbad’s nephew, told the Ikorodu magistrate court that Mohbad’s father
insisted on burying him immediately after receiving N2 million from Davido.
Adeyemo also claimed that he transferred N1 million to Aloba
and later gave the remaining amount to Adura, Mohbad’s younger brother, after
settling hospital bills and ambulance rental fees.
According to TheCable, Adeyemo further revealed that
investigators took custody of the deceased’s phone after his death.
