Mohbad: Femi Falana Petitions Police Over ‘Death Threats’ Against Singer's Wife And Son

 Human rights lawyer, Femi Falana SAN through the Falana & Falana Chambers has written a petition to the Lagos state Police command over alleged death threats against the wife and son of the late singer Mohbad.

Mohbad died on September 12 in controversial circumstances.

The outcry generated from his death resulted in a full scale investigation into his demise, with an autopsy done.

Some arrests were made, including the nurse that administered injection on him shortly before his death and his childhood friend, Primeboy who was said to have had a fight with him few hours before his death.

His former label boss, Naira Marley and socialite Sam Larry were also invited and questioned over videos alleging he was bullied while alive.

Femi Falana's law firm in a letter addressed to the state commissioner of police, Fayoade Adegoke, said some social media users are threatening Omowunmi and Liam Aloba.

According to Falana’s chamber, the singer’s wife has “continued to receive death threats” from seven users of Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok.

 “Westo Adekunle Adejumo, Peckins Rules, Larry Omodia (African TV), Arifanlajogunomoagba, Bukola Jesse, Kudi Alowonle (Yeye Kudi Courtroom) and Themuicpivot" were the seven users the petition was bases against.

The law firm in the petition dated December 28, requested that Mohbad’s wife and son be protected from cyberbullying and defamation of character.

Part of the petition reads:

“Request for the intervention of the office of the commissioner of police, Lagos state command on the threat to lives, cyberbullying, criminal defamation of character of Cynthia Omowunmi Aloba and Liam Aloba and conduct likely to provoke breach of public peace,” the law firm wrote.

“Your office would recall that llerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad died in September 2013 under questionable circumstances.

“The remains of the late singer have since been deposited at the mortuary after the completion of the autopsy on his body, which was exhumed.

“The coroner’s inquest to ascertain the circumstances surrounding his death is still ongoing at the coroner’s court.

“While the deceased’s wife Mrs Cynthia Wunmi Aloba continues to mourn the death of her late husband, she has continued to receive death threats from anonymous phone callers and the following users of Facebook, Instagram and Tiktok, among others.

“Westo Adekunle Adejumo, Peckins Rules, Larry Omodia (African TV), Arifanlajogunomoagba, Bukola Jesse, Kudi Alowonle (Yeye Kudi Courtroom) and Themuicpivot.”

 Mohbad’s body was on September 21 exhumed by the police for autopsy with the results of the autopsy yet to be released to the public.
