Joseph Aloba, the father of the late Nigerian singer Illerioluwa Aloba, also known as Mohbad, insists on a DNA test for his grandson before Mohbad is buried.
Mohbad’s body was exhumed for an autopsy days after his burial, following public outcry. The autopsy, however, failed to determine the cause of death.
Many have since called for Mohbad’s body to be buried. Mr. Aloba, in an interview with TVC, stated that he will not release his son’s body until a DNA test is conducted on Mohbad’s son, Liam, to confirm his paternity.

“I have to do the DNA [on Mohbad’s son] before the burial,” he said. “I’m also doubting the paternity of Mohbad’s son. Sometimes she [Mohbad’s wife] will leave home for 3 days without the consent of the husband.”
Responding to allegations that he’s wearing Mohbad’s clothes and attempting to inherit his properties, Aloba said, “When Mohbad was alive, we were friends. If he buys clothes for himself, he would also buy for me. Since his death, I have never gone to his house. I have never gone there for anything. But some people misinterpreted things so whenever they see me with a shirt, they say it is Mohbad’s. Is it compulsory that it must be from my son? I have my own clothes, too.”
