DNA must be done on Mohbad’s son before singer’s burial – Father
Joseph Aloba, the father of late Nigerian singer, Illerioluwa Aloba, also known as Mohbad, has stated that a DNA test must be conducted on his grandson before the singer is buried.
Gatekeeper recalls that Mohbad’s body was exhumed for autopsy days after his burial following public outcry for an investigation into his controversial death.
However, the result of the autopsy conducted on the body of the late singer is said to have been unable to ascertain the cause of his death.
Following the failed autopsy, many have been clamouring for his body to be buried.
Reacting in a recent interview with TVC, Mr Aloba vowed not to release his son’s body for burial until a DNA test is conducted on his grandson, Liam, to ascertain his true paternity.
“I have to do the DNA [on Mohbad’s son] before the burial,” he said.
“I’m doubting the [the paternity of Mohbad’s] son also. Sometimes she [Mohbad’s wife] will leave home for 3 days without the consent of the husband.”
On the allegations that he is wearing Mohbad’s clothes and trying to inherit his properties, Aloba said, “When Mohbad was alive, we were friends. If he buys clothes for himself, he would also buy for me.
“Since his death, I have never gone to his house. I have never gone there for anything. But some people misinterpreted things so whenever they see me with a shirt, they say it is Mohbad’s. Is it compulsory that it must be from my son? I have my own clothes, too.”
Nollywood actress and politician, Tonto Dikeh, has reflected on the impact of maturity on her personal and professional life.
She stated that maturity has taught her to be more cautious about her interactions and professional endeavours.
The movie star explained that while she still maintains a discerning perspective, she now places greater value on remaining vigilant in her engagements.
In a recent Instagram post, Dikeh wrote: “As I mature, I’ve become more attentive to advice about exercising caution in my interactions and professional endeavors.
“While I still maintain a discerning perspective, I now place greater value on such counsel, remaining vigilant in my engagements.”
