Joseph Aloba, the father of the late singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, has warned that nobody should take his son’s body for burial without his consent.
Aloba, a pastor, made his position known in a video on Sunday on TikTok, which has now gone viral.
He said: “When this boy was alive, he was alive.
“When he go, he still retained my name.
“Nobody should go there and take his body, please.
“If they want to do anything there, I’ll be the one to authorise them.
“Nobody should go and carry Mohbad’s body from there.”
Aloba spoke amid the clamour for a befitting burial for Mohbad, also known as Imole, by another singer, Bella Shmurda, and Nollywood actress and politician, Tonto Dikeh.
