Lagos State Commissioner of Police (CP) Idowu Owohunwa, has disclosed that late singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, aka Mohbad, began vomiting and developed goosebumps after he was injected three times by a nurse, Feyisayo Ogedengbe, on September 12, 2023.
The CP disclosed this while giving preliminary reports of investigation conducted by the police team to unravel the circumstance that led to the death of Mohbad, during a press briefing at command headquarters, Ikeja, Lagos, on Friday.
According to Owohunwa, a brutal fight between Mohbad and his childhood friend, Owodunni Ibrahim, aka Primeboy, during a night show in Ikorodu led to Mohbad being wounded and he refused to go to hospital despite the pleadings from his wife and friends.
The CP added that after getting to his residence in Lekki, Mohbad fell sick and one of his friends brought a nurse who administered three injections believed to have led to the chain of reactions that eventually led to the singer’s death.
“Mohbad began vomiting and developed goosebumps after the injections,” Owohunwa said.
The CP noted that the nurse, Ogedengbe, who was invited by Mohbad’s friend, Ayobami Sodiq, aka Spending, to inject the singer at his residence, is not a qualified and registered nurse.
He further explained that Mohbad was brought in dead to the hospital, adding that he was certified dead by doctors on duty on September 12.
Mohbad’s friend that fought him in Ikorodu, Primeboy, the one that brought in the nurse, Spending, and Ogedengbe have all been arrested.
Owohunwa also said both Azeez Fashola, aka Naira Marley, and Samson Balogun, popularly known as Sam Larry, were not in Nigeria on the day Mohbad died. He, however, added that both were arrested for bullying Mohbad physically and cyberstalking.
The CP said a total of 26 people have been interrogated in connection with Mohbad’s death, stressing that autopsy result is not yet ready.
“As of today, a total of 26 witnesses have been interviewed,” Owohunwa said.
He said those interrogated include Mohbad’s father, mother, sisters, brother, wife, manager among others.
Owohunwa stated that an update would be provided once the result of the autopsy is ready.
