A candlelight procession is currently holding for late Mohbad in Lagos, major cities across Nigeria and some cities across the world.
The procession kicked off from the Lekki Phase 1 gate and will end at the Muri Okunola Park where a tribute concert will be held in honour of the late singer.
Fans and well-wishers of the previously fast rising singer moved from Lekki gate, singing and carrying posters and banners bearing the photos of the deceased, while police operatives were on the ground to provide security.
The d3ath of Ilerioluwa Aloba aka Mohbad has raised concerns, resulting in the Lagos Police Command exhuming his body on earlier today for autopsy.
The Police in conjunction with some health officials conducted the exhumation of Mohbad’s corpse in the Ikorodu area of Lagos on Thursday.
Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, confirmed the exhumation while speaking with Daily Trust in a phone conversation.
The 27-year-old singer passed away on the 12 of September 2023 and was buried in Ikorodu, Lagos State, the next day.
The death of the popular artiste stirred reactions across board, with fans accusing his former boss, Naira Marley and music promoter, Sam Larry, of being responsible for his death.
This prompted Nigerians to call for justice, while others have taken to the streets in Lagos, Ogun and other parts of the country, urging the police to fish out his killers.
The acting Inspector General of Police (IGP), Kayode Egbetokun, after Mohbad’s death, ordered a forensic investigation to unravel the cause of the death.
Following the IGP’s directive, the Commissioner of Police in Lagos State, Idowu Owohunwa, formed a ten-man team, including a pathologist, to exhume and investigate Mohbad’s death.
