MohBad’s death shrouded in secrecy, smacks of foul play: Jandor
Abdul-Azeez Adediran, aka Jandor, the PDP candidate in the 2023 governorship election, says the death of Afrobeats artiste Ilerioluwa Aloba (MohBad) is shrouded in secrecy.
Twenty-seven-year-old MohBad died penultimate Tuesday.
Mr Adediran, in a statement on Wednesday in Lagos, called for diligence in the investigation into the musician’s death.
“Mohbad’s death announced on September 12 is shrouded in secrecy and foul play with widespread allegation of complicit of some key players in the music industry,” stated the politician. “The law enforcement agencies need to unravel the truth and ensure no case of injustice is allowed by carrying out thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding his death.”
Mr Adeniran added, “This unfortunate incident and the attendant public outcry on attempts to cover up the matter is a huge drawback to the entertainment industry in the country.”
The PDP stalwart lamented the untimely death of such a budding talent and the anxiety among music fans on the perceived dangers and shady undercutting going on in the entertainment industry.
“This is a big blow to the image of our music industry,” he said.
Mr Adediran commiserated with the family and fans of Mohbad and wished them the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss.
Meanwhile, police commissioner Idowu Owohunwa has constituted a special team to unravel the cause of Mohbad’s death, and the Lagos government has invited the State Security Service (SSS) to collaborate in the investigation to unravel the cause of MohBad’s sudden death.
