Joseph Aloba, the father of the late Nigerian singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as MohBad, has said his sons body was already embalmed and placed by the staircase when he arrived at the deceaseds home the day he died.

Aloba made this known while calling on the police to intensify the investigation to unravel the cause of his sons death.

In a statement he authored on Thursday, the bereaved father also revealed how his sons corpse was locally embalmed on the spot he found it.

‹He said, When I got to my sons house, I met a very large number of people as if a special event was going on, I didnt even pay any attention to the crowd I saw in the house. I went straight into his apartment after seeing lots of people inthe house, I knew something had happened to me, even as no one told me anything.

I went straight upstairs to his room where we used to talk as father and son, I saw no one in that room but a duvet-cloth that was stained with much blood, if not God that has never put me to shame, he made Mohbads aunt to also see the cloth and she was able to come public and affirm to that horrible scene.

All these never signify to my mind that my son was no more and while I left the room, my attention was called to wheremy son, Mohbad, was laid by the staircase lifeless after he had been cleaned up, dressed and embalmed locally blocking his nostrils and ears with heavy cotton wool.

It was after seeing the lifeless body of my son Mohbad, that I started looking around tosee different faces including Mohbads lawyer. There I was then asked what I wanted to do with the body while standing like a fresh madman, he said.

When asked about the release of Mohbads autopsy report in the same month, Hundeyin disclosed that the command had yet to get the report officially.

Also in an interview in December 2023, Hundeyin reiterated that the command had not received the report of theautopsyconducted on Mohbad from the pathologists.

He said, Were not the pathologists who carried out the autopsy. (The PUNCH)
