Lagos state Police have said that information have been passed to Mr. Joseph Aloba, the father of late singer, Mohbad, that he can come and collect the corpse of his son anytime he wants but the man has not yet applied for it.
Recall that the mother of the singer released a video on Tuesday, November 21, saying that the body of the singer has been released to the father but he has refused for it to be reburied.
According to LIB, the police, have concluded the autopsy on the singer, informed the father that he can come forward to collect his body but the man is yet to apply for it.
A police source who spoke to LIB on condition of anonymity, said
‘’The body is in the morgue. It has not been released. It wouldn’t be released to you and you wouldn’t come and pick it. The hospital wouldn’t allow it. Only the father can apply for the release of the corpse, only the father and the police has said any day he applies, he would get it immediately. We have told them, anytime they want it, just write an application but the father has refused to do that. Technically, it is the father that is holding back. The father has said he is not taking it yet until they do DNA and that is their personal family problem. If the man writes today, of course it will be released and he must carry the corpse. You can’t write and keep it there. For who?”
Mr Aloba has continue to insisted that a DNA must be done to ascertain the true paternity of Liam, the seven month old son of late Mohbad and his wife, Wunmi.
