One year after the death of popular Nigerian artiste Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, fans and sympathisers are still demanding justice.

Mohbad, who majored in street hip hop, died on September 12, 2023, in Lagos under strange and controversial circumstances.

Just as a lot of protests and demonstrations rocked the nation after his death, Nigerians, once again, took to the streets to seek justice for his death.

A peaceful demonstration, led by actor Yomi Fabiyi and tagged ‘Justice for Mohbad’, was held on Wednesday, August 11, at the front of the Chief Magistrate’s Court in Ikorodu.

One can recall that Mohbad’s body was exhumed a few days after he died for an autopsy, but the results have not been revealed by the Nigerian Police.

Amid the ongoing calls for justice, Mohbad’s mother, Abosede Aloba, during the demostration held, urged fans to disperse and cease the demonstrations.

“Whatever Mohbad’s father says is final. We don’t support any celebration of our son’s remembrance. The best you can do is to pray for him. We are also pleading with the authorities to release his body so that the family can resolve the lingering issues and move on,” she said.

On the anniversary of his death, Nigerians have once again taken to social media to demand justice for the late singer.

@Tommie_Ayo, “Just like yesterday, you passed. Justice is still yet to be served. A young talent had his life cut short. You will forever be remembered. Continue to Rest in peace Promise Ilerioluwa; Imole”

@ManLikeIcey, “One year has passed since Mohbad left this world, but his spirit lives on in the art he created and the lives he touched. He poured his soul into his music by creating good music and inspiring young artistes. May his soul continue to rest in peace and may he find justice.”
