Mohbad: Yomi Fabiyi leads protest as coroner inquest begins

By Tosin Brown

Nollywood actor Yomi Fabiyi led a group of fans to the venue of the coroner’s inquest into Mohbad’s death on Wednesday.

Fabiyi and the fans were seen outside the Ikorodu Magistrate Court, demanding justice for the late singer as the inquest commenced.

Family members of the deceased, including his wife and parents, Joseph and Abosede Aloba, were also present for the proceedings, arriving separately.

The inquest, which began on September 29, 2023, aims to determine the cause of Mohbad’s death.

Mohbad passed away under mysterious circumstances on September 12, 2023, and was buried the following day.

On September 21, his body was exhumed for an autopsy at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH), which revealed no significant findings that could explain his death.

The toxicology report did detect the presence of Diphenhydramine, an antihistamine, but not in a concentration deemed fatal.

Mohbad’s family has rejected the results and demanded an independent investigation.

Notably, Naira Marley and Sam Larry, who were summoned as key witnesses, were absent from court.
