I Stopped Mohbad’s Father From Burying Him At Midnight – Baale
The Baale of Gberigbe community in Ikorodu, Lagos State, Oba Kabiru Shotobi has revealed that he was the one that prevented James Aloba, the father of late singer, Ilerioluwa Olademeji Aloba, aka Mohbad from burying his corpse at midnight.
Recalls that Mohbad died in a controversial manner on September 12, 2023, and was buried the following day in Ikorodu.
The Baale of Ikorodu revelation comes days after the Coffin Maker makes it known to all and sundry that the late Mohbad neck was bent in the casket because the father and family of the late singer rushed him and he wasn’t allowed to take the measurement of his size.
While Mohbad father has been linked by many as being irresponsible over his decision to bury Mohbad the next day after his death when he is not a Muslim, others claimed something is fishy and the father is a suspect that should be put behind bars.
The sudden burial sparked outrage both online and offline, with many berating his family for burying the singer before an autopsy could be carried out.
However, speaking in a video trending on the internet, the Baale of Gberigbe, Oba Shotobi said Mohbad could have been buried earlier if not for his intervention.
He said the deceased’s father wanted to bury him at midnight but he kicked against it.
Speaking in Yoruba, Oba Shotobi said, “Mohbad’s father wanted to bury Mohbad in the midnight of the same day he died. I was the one that stopped him.”
