Mohbad’s Father Testifies In Court
Mohbad’s father, Joseph Aloba shared insights into his son’s relationship with fellow artist Azeez Fashola, aka Naira Marley when he took the stand at a Lagos State coroner court.
He revealed that his son had been living with Naira Marley since December 2019.
During his testimony, Mr. Aloba disclosed that he and his son had lived together for 18 years, though he was uncertain about the exact residence where his son and Naira Marley cohabitated.
He mentioned that Mohbad moved out when he reached the age of consent to pursue his career and began working with Naira Marley.
The testimony was part of a coroner’s inquest investigating the circumstances surrounding Mohbad’s untimely passing at the age of 27. The talented musician passed away on September 12 and was laid to rest the following day.

Mr. Aloba recounted that he last saw his son just three days before his tragic passing and only saw a photo of his casket. His late son assured him that he could resolve his issues with Naira Marley.
Joseph Aloba also disclosed that he saw blood-stained clothes in Mohbad’s bedroom on the day he died. He claimed he took his son’s remains to a mortuary but was rejected, so he had to bury him immediately.
