Mohbad’s Father Insists Burial Waits Until DNA Test On Son Liam Is Completed
Joseph Aloba, father of the late singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, known as Mohbad, has declared that his son will not be laid to rest until a DNA test is conducted on Mohbad’s son, Liam. In a video shared on Tuesday, Aloba said, “The DNA test is the most important thing. Once it is done, Mohbad will be buried.” He further stressed, “Mohbad will be buried immediately after the DNA test is completed.” Mohbad died on September 12, 2023, and was initially buried the following day, a decision that sparked nationwide outrage. His body was later exhumed for an autopsy amid calls for a thorough investigation into his death. More than two years later, his remains remain in government custody. The renewed controversy over the DNA test comes amid persistent questions about paternity. Aloba has insisted that the test must be conducted in his presence or through a representative to ensure transparency. He maintains that he alone has the authority to authorize the burial and that the DNA result is crucial for “closure.”
