Mohbad’s death big blow to us; justice must be served: Ekiti Assembly
The Ekiti House of Assembly has called for a thorough investigation into the death of Oladimeji Aloba, a hip-hop musician popularly known as Mohbad.
The assembly made the call on Wednesday while deliberating on a motion by Babatunde Oke, the lawmaker representing Ikere Constituency I.
Mr Oke, who moved the motion under a matter of urgent public importance, said it was pertinent to unravel the circumstances behind Mohbad’s death.
”There is a need for a thorough investigation on this issue. We are hearing different stories; we need to know what happened,” Mr Oke said.
Supporting the motion, Babatunde Odowu, representing Ikere Constituency 2, described Mohbad’s death as untimely and a huge loss.
In his speech, the Speaker Adeoye Aribasoye said the musician’s death hugely pained the assembly.
”The situation calls for sober reflection; the entertainer’s death is a big blow to us. We need to ensure that justice is done,” he said.
He prayed to God to grant the family and admirers of the late musician the fortitude to bear the loss.
