Mohbad’s Family Rejects Autopsy Report, Demands Independent Test

The family of late Nigeria singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad has spoken up, as they reject autopsy results from the Lagos state government.

Speaking during a conference on Monday, June 17, the family, through their legal counsel, Wahab Shittu said a lot of issues that trialed the report delivered by the Coroner court sitting in Ikorodu, and carried out in Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH).

They added that the reports have no compatibility with the reports from the Nigerian police, adding that an independent toxicology would provide a better understanding of the cause of their son’s death.

The statement in part reads;

‘’This outcome is entirely unacceptable to us and the Aloba Family and raises serious concerns about the integrity and thoroughness of the investigation by the police and the medical team into the untimely death of their beloved son, brother, and friend. The Aloba family and, indeed, the whole world demand to know where the toxicology test was carried out as this has impugned the integrity.

The legal team wonders how the letterhead and the address of the National Medical Services Laboratories in Pennsylvania, USA appeared on the toxicology test report if the test was not truly carried out in the USA.”

The family added;

‘Considering the Coroner Inquest, we appeal to the presiding Magistrate at to ensure that an independent toxicology report is submitted to the Coroner’s Court before submitting the final report to the authorities. Presently, we have an application before the Coroner Court seeking approval to conduct an independent autopsy and toxicology test.

 

“We call on the presiding magistrate in the matter to expedite a hearing on the independent autopsy and toxicology application. That is the only way justice can be served in this case”.
