Mr Joseph Aloba, the father of Ilerioluwa Aloba popularly known as Mohbad has called on the Nigeria Police Force to summon his second son, Adura, and Omawunmi (Mohbad’s baby mama) to provide insights into the death of the late singer.
In a statement issued on Thursday, Mr Aloba disclosed that he is demanding the summons due to the recent world press conference organised by Yoruba actor Mr Yomi Fabiyi regarding the alleged video which Adura reportedly sent to him —suspected to be linked to Mohbad’s tragic demise in his home years ago.
According to him, Adura and Omawunmi were in the house when Mohbad passed away, yet they have both refused to speak, likely due to the influence of people whose motives, in this case, remain unclear to him and the whole world.
Mr Aloba expressed concerns about Adura’s silence, stating that he had refused to speak about the events leading to Mohbad’s de@th despite efforts made to reach out to him.

The statement reads thus in full, “I am calling on the Nigeria Police to summon my son, Adura Aloba and Omowunmi Cynthia Adebanjo, to provide insights into the death of my son, Ilerioluwa. This is due to the recent world press conference organised by Mr Yomi Fabiyi regarding the alleged video Adura Aloba reportedly sent to him —suspected to be linked to Mohbad’s tragic demise in his home. Things could have been easy without Mohbad’s mother’s role in obstructing all my efforts to see and reach out to Adura.
“Earlier on, after Mohbad’s death, I and other members of my family made several attempts to communicate with Adura to tell me and the family what happened to his brother on that fateful day. Despite all our efforts, she blocked every avenue through which we could reach him.
“A few days ago, during an interview on STV’s morning show, I expressed my concerns about Adura’s silence. He was in the house when Mohbad passed away, yet he has refused to speak, likely due to the influence of people whose motives, in this case, remain unclear to me and the whole world. This is a clear case of meddling, which is tantamount to obstructing the wheel of justice.”
Mr Aloba continued: “I urge the police to provide security to ensure their safety now and whenever they come forward to share knowledge with the authorities. I believe their cooperation and testimony could be instrumental in shedding light on the circumstances leading to Mohbad’s death.”
