Father of singer, Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba aka MohBad has spoken on the circumstances that surrounded the death of his son.
In an interview with BBC Yoruba, he recounted everything that happened on the day of his son’s death.
Mr. Aloba said he attempted to intervene on behalf of his son to be treated right by Naira Marley.
He further described an incident where Naira Marley was seen eating with his son, Mohbad, which touched him deeply.
However, his son had confided in him that Naira Marley had an evil side.
The grieving father also revealed that his son had been subjected to physical abuse multiple times.
He disclosed that the first time Mohbad was beaten, he reported it to the police but no action was taken.
This pattern of fear continued with further incidents of violence, including one during a video shoot with Zlatan.
Desperate for justice, Mohbad’s father, who is a pastor, expressed inability to take traditional measures due to his religious beliefs.
“My son d!ed at about 3pm, nobody called me. By the time I got to his house, it was 10pm and I saw a lot of crowd. We were denied a police report at the station, We tried to take him to the mortuary but there was no space, I couldn’t be watching him in the house. I had to bury him. Nigerians should forgive me if I offended them. Nobody loves him like me. I have never seen Samlarry before in my life.
“The first day I went to Naira Marley’s house, Mohbad was eating and Naira picked a spoon and was eating with him. This really touched me that he loved him so much but my son told me Naira was evil. When I went to Naira’s room to beg him to forgive my son whatever he might have done, I didn’t know he was recording me.
“The first time Sam Larry ever beat him, he told me not to say anything, he reported at the police station but nothing was done. Since then he had always been living with fear.
“He was beaten again during his video shoot with Zlatan. I need justice for him. As a Pastor, I can’t fight this traditionally because of my religion. If they want to do the DNA test, let them do it,” he said.
