Mohbad’s father, Joseph Aloba, is not giving up his quest for justice for his late son.
As such, he has given several interviews on social and mainstream media. In one of his last appearances in the media, Aloba, who is also a musician, said that he knows the identity of his son’s murderers.
During her appearance on Oyinmomo TV, shared on YouTube on Wednesday, she insisted that a DNA test be performed on Liam, her grandson, before revealing who killed her son. However, halfway through the interview, she made a damning revelation.
When the host asked Aloba who killed Mohbad, he responded in Yoruba, “Àlè ló pa Mohbad,” which translates to “The concubine killed Mohbad.”
Mohbad’s father also continues to criticize Wunmi, his daughter-in-law, over Liam’s paternity and the singer’s property. In February he challenged her to reveal everything she knew about the singer’s death.
Mohbad
“Is it right for a married woman to leave her matrimonial home for three days and stay in a hotel just because she got angry after seeing an ‘I love you’ message on Mohbad’s cellphone, claiming that he was having an affair?
“A star gets a text saying ‘I love you’ and Wunmi leaves because of it. When she was angry, why couldn’t she lock herself inside the studio and refuse to talk to anyone? Instead, she left home for three days. My son once told me that Wunmi added a substance to his noodles and he fell asleep. Mohbad said that she was the girlfriend of the person Wunmi went to see who caught her and informed him,” Aloba alleged while she was answering the show host’s questions.

Aloba also alleged that Naira Marley and Sam Larry assaulted and intimidated her son until his death.
He claims to have witnessed an incident where Naira Marley and his associates assaulted the deceased singer.
He said, “One day I was at Mohbad’s house. He left that day with his friends, but one of them returned to inform me that they were beating him. When I got to the street, they didn’t open the gate. Before I could introduce myself, I saw Mohbad approaching and he was covered in blood.
“I asked him what happened to him and he said it was Naira Marley and his group who beat him. I insisted on seeing him (NairaMarley), but my son said no. I suggested we go to the police station to complain, but he said Bella Shmurda had already done that. We went to the hospital, they treated him and discharged him, but he always called me saying that they were after his life.”
Aloba added that when Mohbad expressed concern for his safety by suggesting that Naira Marley should be held responsible for any potential harm, he took the initiative to reconcile him with the Marlians record label boss.
However, Mohbad’s father added that upon witnessing Naira Marley’s continuous attack on Mohbad, he recognized it as sheer callousness and cruelty.

Aloba said his son began to feel in danger in the presence of Naira Marley and his circle following an incident in which the NDLEA allegedly used force against him during a raid on the Marlians boss’ residence.
“When the NDLEA invaded the house, Mohbad was not at home. When he returned, the NDLEA hit him on the head with a pistol. He called me and said they wanted to kill him.
“What he questioned then was why he was the only one who was hit with a gun and arrested. It seemed that the Marlians did not love him and were plotting against him. “What I saw was hate.”
liam’s paternity
Mr Aloba insisted that Mohbad was not Liam’s father and maintained that a DNA test should be carried out on Liam before he buried Mohbad.
He thanked the Lagos State Police for exhuming Mohbad’s remains, noting that the truth could have remained hidden without their intervention.
“Wunmi should be called a chronic liar because no truth can be found in her. She stated that by not giving me the child’s placenta I have been mistreating her, among other accusations. They took the placenta to the child’s father. Others told me that Liam has bow legs, something no one in our family has.
“It wasn’t me who called him Liam; He wanted to name him Victor, but they said there were no more names left. I asked Mohbad and he told me that he called him “Light” to calm me down. “I don’t know if the boy’s father instructed them to call him Liam because I don’t know who Liam’s father is,” he said.
Wunmi
Aloba alleged that Wunmi controlled Mohbad and collected his salary using his account number.
“The first time I met Naira Marley, he told me that the account Mohbad used to receive his money belonged to Wunmi. I was shocked. “They had been living together in Naira Marley’s house.”
Mohbad’s father claimed that he did not meet Wunmi as Mohbad’s fiancée until 2020, adding that the person Mohbad first introduced him to was not Wunmi.
He said: “The first day I saw Wunmi was in 2020, when Mohbad came to church for thanksgiving for his birthday and mentioned that he had signed with the Marlians record label. That’s when I met Wunmi.”
Aloba further alleged that Wunmi conspired with Mohbad’s mother, Abosede Olumiyi, and her family to plan their engagement instead of introducing her.
He said the plan was to have a presentation with Wunmi’s family in January, not an engagement.
“I only informed my older brother about the presentation and no one else found out. It was an introduction, so I set the date for the engagement. But when I arrived on the island, Mohbad’s mother said that making the introduction and engagement was a waste of money. Mohbad’s mother and the Wunmi family had planned an engagement and I didn’t know anything about it.
“They gave me an Agbada and I used it. When we arrived at our in-laws’ house, everything was ready. Wunmi hired a DJ because he controlled Mohbad’s money as it was his account that he (Mohbad) used to collect money. Only my brother and I were present at the engagement.”
Responding to Mr Aloba’s allegations against his daughter-in-law, Wunmi’s lawyer, Kabir Akingbolu of Salawu Akingbolu & Co., told PREMIUM TIMES that he (Mohbad’s father) was served with a notice urging him to stop defaming Wunmi .
”There are no two ways to say it, and it is not something literary, but from the interview it is very clear that what Mr. Aloba said was that it was Wunmi’s concubine who killed Mohbad. These are all wild accusations,” Akingbolu said of Aloba’s “Àlè ló pa Mohbad” statement.
He added: “Once the time we gave him elapses, we will prosecute him for defamation because he is portraying our client’s image as shabby.”
