Olajide Adediran, popularly known as Jandor, who was the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos State during the 2023 elections, has called for a thorough investigation into the sudden death of Afrobeats singer Mohbad (Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba). Mohbad, a fast-rising talent in the Nigerian music industry, passed away on September 12, 2023.
Adediran expressed concern about the circumstances surrounding Mohbad’s death and the subsequent public outcry, emphasizing the need for law enforcement agencies to conduct a diligent investigation to uncover the truth and ensure justice is served. He also expressed condolences to Mohbad’s family and fans.
The death of Mohbad, who was a former signee of Marlian Records, owned by Naira Marley (Azeez Fashola), raised questions and led to investigations by the Lagos State Police Command, with the governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, vowing to ensure that anyone found culpable faces the consequences of the law. The investigation aims to shed light on the cause of Mohbad’s untimely demise and address concerns about the entertainment industry’s safety and practices.
