I Don’t Have Any Knowledge About My Brother’s Death – Mohbad’s Brother Denies Claims

Adura Aloba, the brother of late Nigerian singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, has denied accusations made by actor Yomi Fabiyi regarding the circumstances of the singer’s death.

In a statement shared on the Cablelifestyle X account on Friday, Adura addressed the claims made by Fabiyi during a recent press conference.

Recall that Fabiyi had accused Adura of having knowledge of Mohbad’s death and allegedly requesting money in exchange for sharing a video that could shed light on the incident.

Adura refuted these allegations, saying, “Firstly, I do not have much to say. This thing is in court already. So I do not need to say much. I cannot know about my brother’s death and keep quiet all these days. I am now so surprised.”

He explained that the video Fabiyi referenced was filmed over three years ago by Mohbad himself, not him, and was found on a phone that Adura had sold to a man named Damola.

“The video was on that phone. I was the one who chatted Mr. Yomi. I had tried to make him understand. You were invited and they told you who was chatting with you and you insisted on the TikTok live. I saw everything on the TikTok live,” Adura clarified, further stressing that Fabiyi was attempting to tarnish his name by making false claims.

Adura also provided details on how the situation unfolded, revealing that after selling the phone, he started seeing messages between Damola and Fabiyi.

“Mohbad did the video and it was on his phone for more than three years ago… When I sold the phone to Damola, about a week later, I started seeing his messages with Mr. Yomi. That was how it all happened. Mr. Yomi is trying to tarnish my name that I did it.”

This development comes on the heels of a public clash between Mohbad’s mother and Fabiyi over the circumstances surrounding her son’s death.

Mohbad, who passed away on September 12, 2023, was buried the following day. However, on September 21, 2023, his body was exhumed for an autopsy, as the cause of death remains under investigation.

According to reports, Fabiyi claimed that Adura had contacted him on Instagram, alleging that he possessed evidence that could help uncover the truth behind Mohbad’s death.

The actor further accused Adura of demanding N3 million to share a video that allegedly showed Mohbad’s wife, Wunmi, pushing the singer down the stairs during an altercation.
