Mohbad’s Family Kicks Against Anniversary Event For Late Singer
The family of late Nigerian singer, Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, has kicked against plans to mark the anniversary of the late musician.
CityNews Nigeria reports that Mohbad died on September 12, 2023, at the age of 27, with the circumstances surrounding his death still lingering.
A statement signed by a member of the family’s legal team, Monisola Odumosu, urged organisations and individuals planning to celebrate Mohbad’s first anniversary to suspend the ideas.
The family said they would rather mourn Mohbad in peace as it does not seek to reopen old wounds.
According to the family, some individuals and organisations might plan to use Mohbad’s memory for commercial purposes.
The statement reads, “It has come to the attention of the Aloba family that some organisations have been planning to celebrate the first anniversary of the death of our late son and singer, Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba (Mohbad). The Aloba family wishes to appeal to such interest groups to suspend such ideas.
“It is no longer news that some individuals and organisations have been planning to carry out events to commemorate the late singer’s death.
“We will appeal to such persons and organisations to seek proper approval from the family before going on with such plans. The Aloba family would not wish the goodwill of their illustrious son to be employed for commercial purposes.”
