“I Paid N16 Million for Autopsy” – Mohbad’s Father Opens Up on Painful Search for Truth
Joseph Aloba, father of the late Nigerian singer Mohbad, has revealed that he paid a whopping N16 million to a pathologist for an independent autopsy on his son, adding to the growing drama and unanswered questions surrounding the singer’s death.
In a recent TikTok live session, Aloba passionately defended his decision and financial commitment, emphasizing transparency in his quest for justice.
“With all sincerity, I paid the first tranche of N16 million to the pathologist. After that, I spent close to N2 million… If the pathologist can come out to deny my claim, then don’t believe me again,” he declared.
The claim comes just a month after the forensic review, led by Dr. Uwom Eze, failed to determine the exact cause of Mohbad’s death—leaving fans and family in deeper anguish.
This follows the Coroner Court’s ruling in June 2024, where Magistrate T.A. Shotobi granted Mr. Aloba permission to seek an independent autopsy following public outcry and growing distrust in the earlier investigations.
💬 OPINION: The Cost of Closure in Nigeria Shouldn't Be This High
N16 million. That’s the price a grieving father had to pay just to search for clarity over his son’s tragic death. In a country where systems often fail those without loud voices or deep pockets, Joseph Aloba’s story is both heartbreaking and infuriating.
How is it that a promising young artist can die under mysterious circumstances, and months later, even a second autopsy—funded privately—still leaves more questions than answers?
This isn’t just about Mohbad anymore. It’s about justice, transparency, and the harsh reality of what it costs to pursue the truth in Nigeria. And sadly, truth is still not guaranteed.
🎵 Mohbad’s voice may be gone, but the noise for justice must never be silenced.
