Mohbad’s Death: Why I wear My Son's Clothes

Ilerioluwa ‘Mohbad’ Aloba

JOSEPH Aloba, the late singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, also known as Mohbad's father, explained that he feels at ease wearing his attire because his late son was a buddy with whom he shared similar ground.

Joseph Aloba was responding to others who were questioning why he was dressing in his late son's clothes.

He claimed that because their sizes match, he dresses in his son's clothes.

“He is my son. I can wear his clothes. We are the same size. And anybody that has that kind of a son and cannot share with, that means that person does not love his son. So we are together,” he said.

“I could remember the day they wanted to go and do an introduction that led to his engagement. He bought me a pair of shoes and he said 'Daddy this is what you are going to wear' I said these shoes were bigger than mine and that I did not want this kind of bourgeois, he said ‘this is exactly what I want you to do.'

“So, he wanted to blend me. He is my son and a friend to me. So my focus now is justice for Mohbad. So all those rubbish questions, I do not want to answer questions like that. He is my son. So whoever that wants to say anything they like.”

Mohbad's widow, Omowunmi, recently said that her father-in-law believes Liam, his grandson, is a rival and a threat and wants Mohbad's properties.

She stated that Joseph is postponing doing a DNA test on Liam.

On September 12, 2023, Mohbad passed away. The next day, he was buried.

Mohbad's body was dug out by the police on September 21. That day saw the completion of an autopsy, following which the police declared they were awaiting the results.
