Nigerian actress Iyabo Ojo has shared important updates regarding the investigation into the untimely passing of Nigerian singer Mohbad, who tragically lost his life on September 12, 2023.
On Tuesday, October 17, Ojo took to Instagram to reveal that the Nigeria Police Force is still awaiting the toxicology results from the autopsy conducted on the late singer.
Furthermore, she disclosed that Mohbad's case has now been transferred to the Directorate of Public Prosecution and expressed concern that his body has remained unreleased since his exhumation in September. Ojo also shed light on a significant detail: the surveillance cameras in Mohbad's residence were never operational, leaving no footage to shed light on the circumstances surrounding his death.
The actress also shared information about the questioning of Mohbad's wife. To her knowledge, Mohbad's wife has been interrogated three times. Two instances occurred when Mohbad's father was televised, addressing the public about his son's case. Later that same day, Mohbad's father, mother, and wife were taken to the Panti Police Station for further interrogation and to provide their statements. Another round of questioning occurred on September 21, 2023, during which Tonto and Senator Ishaku Abbo met with Mohbad's wife, explaining her absence from previous public appearances.
Mohbad's sudden and mysterious death in September prompted nationwide peaceful protests, calling for a thorough police investigation. The demand for an autopsy led to the police exhuming his body from his grave in Ikorodu. Despite the police attributing the singer's death to adverse reactions from three injections administered by an auxiliary nurse, Nigerians are still awaiting critical results from the autopsy, including the toxicology report.
After extensive questioning of more than 20 individuals, the police have identified five suspects in the Mohbad case. These suspects include Feyisayo Ogendengbe, the nurse administering the injections at the singer's residence, and Ayobami Sadiq, known as Spending, who invited the nurse.
