The father of late Nigerian singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, has alleged that his son’s death was connected to a dispute over DNA testing and the paternity of a child.
In a statement, the grieving father claimed that one of Mohbad’s friends told him the singer was killed because he had raised concerns about DNA testing.
He insisted that the alleged disagreement centred on questions surrounding the paternity of a child, although he did not provide further details or identify the friend who reportedly gave him the information.
“Mohbad was killed because of DNA. I’m saying it now for the whole world to hear. Mohbad was killed because of DNA, his friend told me. He was killed because of paternity,” he said.
The singer’s father also made an emotional appeal to members of the public, asking for support as he continues to seek answers over his son’s death.
“I said concubine killed Mohbad. I know what I’m saying. Help me. Please, any way you can be of help, please help me. And those that are standing by me will not be put to shame,” he added.
His comments have renewed attention on the circumstances surrounding Mohbad’s death. However, the claims linking the singer’s death to a DNA or paternity dispute remain allegations made by his father and have not been established by the information provided.
