VIDEO: Finally, Mohbad’s Father Announces Burial Plans
Joseph Aloba, father of the late Nigerian singer Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, has disclosed that the long-awaited burial of the artiste will take place immediately after the ongoing DNA test process is completed.
In a viral video circulating online on Tuesday, Aloba described the DNA test as the “most important factor” delaying the final burial rites of the 27-year-old singer, whose death on September 12 sparked nationwide controversy and calls for justice.
“Today is the DNA court case, my lawyer is here, and I am telling the whole world that this is the most important thing,” he said. “This is what has been delaying the burial of Mohbad. After the DNA is done, we will immediately move on to the burial.”
Aloba has been locked in a prolonged dispute with Mohbad’s widow, Omowunmi Aloba, over the paternity of their son, Liam. The disagreement has heightened public attention on the case, with both sides pursuing legal steps to protect their interests.
Earlier, Tori News reported that Wunmi filed formal documents at the Lagos State High Court, Ikeja, to prevent any unauthorised attempts to claim or administer the late singer’s estate. In a notice dated November 19, 2025, filed by her legal representatives, Salawu, Akingbolu & Co., the widow confirmed that she submitted Form 5 and Form 6 to bar the issuance of Letters of Administration to anyone not recognised by law.
The correspondence, signed by I.P. Awo (Esq.), identifies Wunmi as the legal wife of the deceased and the mother of his only surviving child, Master Liam Aloba. Public announcements were also placed in two national newspapers in November 2025, warning against any “surreptitious or fraudulent attempts” to take over the estate through illegal means.
According to her legal team, the filed notice remains binding until Mohbad’s estate is formally and lawfully administered by the court.
“Finally The DNA test date will be fixed, and that is the most important thing. Once it is done, Mohbad will be buried.”

Davido Slams Sophia Momodu’s Lawyer After Custody Case Is Dropped
Nigerian music star, Davido Adeleke, better known as Davido, has publicly called out the lawyer representing his first baby mama, Sophia Momodu, following their recent court session over joint custody of their daughter, Imade Adeleke.
Daily voice recalls that drama ensued during the court proceedings when Sophia’s lawyer questioned how Davido could guarantee Imade’s safety when he was unable to protect his son, Ifeanyi, who passed away in October 2022.
The lawyer’s comment ticked Davido off, who reportedly lost his cool and slammed the lawyer in the courtroom.
The court proceedings were halted for a while, and when the court reconvened, the judge asked Davido to apologise to the court and the lawyer, but the singer reportedly refused, insisting he can never apologise to the lawyer for using his deceased son against him.
Taking to social media shortly after the hearing, Davido did not hold back, accusing the lawyer of being unprofessional during the proceedings.
The singer also expressed anger that his late son, Ifeanyi, was mentioned during the session, describing the move as insensitive given what he and his wife have been through.
Davido further called the lawyer a wicked human being, insisting that he defeated her during the courtroom exchange.
He wrote, “@belachukwu I disgraced you in the courtroom. I was teaching you your work, you couldn’t even take it and then went on to mention my son… like I said in the courtroom. I pray you never go through what me and my wife have gone through ever… and you were still smilling smirking… You are a wicked human being. You are the worst lawyer ever. I beat you in court! you are not learned.”

Daily voice reports that his song featuring Omah Lay, With You was nominated in the Best African Music Performance category, but he did not take home the prize.
