Reps Urge Police, Others To Probe Mohbad’s Death

The House of Representatives has urged relevant security agencies to collaborate with the Nigeria Police Force to conduct a holistic investigation into the entire circumstances leading to the death of Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly called Mohbad to fish out the culprits and bring them to book.

Leadership Newspaper reports that the House also mandated the Committee on Police Affairs to liaise with the Nigeria Police Force to ensure a thorough and expedited investigation of the sad incident and report to the House within four weeks.

The resolutions followed the adoption of a motion of urgent public importance moved by Hon. Babajimi Benson (APC, Lagos) at plenary on Tuesday.

Moving the motion, Benson lamented the recent sad and sudden demise of Mohbad under questionable circumstances, saying he was a budding Nigerian youth that is thriving in the Nigerian music industry as well as in the international sphere.

The lawmaker noted that the dead artise has been a source of inspiration and support to his family as well as a large number of youths across the country with songs like “Peace, Ask About Me, Feel Good, Blessing and several others.”

He expressed shock that the youthful and promising Nigerian youth died at a young age of 27 under questionable circumstances.

Benson also expressed worry that Mohbad’s death and the circumstances surrounding it has led to some street protests across the country, a situation that could escalate if not addressed.

He commended the Nigeria Police Force for the measures taken so far to unravel the situation and bring any culprits to book.

Adopting the motion, the House observed one minute silence for the deceased Afrobeats singer.
