A socio-cultural group, Yoruba Council Worldwide, has reacted to the death of afrobeats musician, Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, aka MohBad.
In a statement on Monday by its president, Aare Oladotun Hassan Esq, the group said it has raised a team of lawyers to provide free legal services for MohBad’s family to ensure justice is served.
Commiserating with fans and family of the late singer, the council called for calm and peace assuring that there would be justice.
“Yoruba Council Worldwide hereby register our heartfelt condolences and commiserate with the family, the fans and all the admirers of IleriOluwa Oladimeji Imole Aloba aka MohBad Imolenization, on his painful exit on 12th September, 2023 from this terrestrial world under excruciating pains, depression, suppression, harrassment, intimidation, bullying, aggravated premeditated murder and suspicious circumstances,” the statement said.
“We are deeply pained and saddened by the untimely demise of the late superstar, the highly talented Yoruba-born musician that was immensely blessed and extraordinarily gifted with aesthetic musical excellence that was embellished with glitz, glamour and boundless energy while alive, yet he foresaw his death.
“With his [Mohbad] short sojourn in life, it could be unarguably agreed that he bestrode the music world like a colossus and shone more colourfully and exceptionally as a rare megastar with uncommon mission and unassuming philosophy, the group said.
“In death, his popularity has continued to grow more resoundingly and exponentially being a rare gem star that came, saw and conquered.”
The council stated that even with his short stay in life, his untimely exit had continued to shake the world to its foundation.
“Mohbad’s aura and spirit radiates and his love is eternally inscribed in our hearts, predicated on his indelible footprints and melodious signature baritone sounds and electrifying vibes.
“Most unfortunate and painfully, the voyager has since left his “frenemies” in deep sorrows, tears and blood. Imole’s light has continued to shine and radiate more colourfully and powerfully globally.”
It further stated that his mysterious death, regrettably, has eventually created a platform for unravelling many shoddy mysteries in the entertainment and music industry.
“As the police forensic investigation continues, we use this medium to call for calm and peace in Nigeria.
“We have set out free legal support services to assist the family and ensure all steps taken are done in accordance with the rule of law and standard practice.
“We strongly believe that his death has already revolutionized the entertainment industry and shall continue to serve as an enlightenment pedestal for the present and future generation music artists.
“We are rest assured that a robust investigation would definitely unravel the remote cause and circumstances behind his death, and whosoever has a hand in his sudden demise will surely be made to face the full wrath of the law.
“May his indomitable spirit never get weary in power, may his light continue to shine brighter, may the good Lord grant his family and beloved ones uncommon fortitude to bear the irreplaceable loss,” it added.
