Primeboy Calls for Justice and Immediate Burial of Late Singer Mohbad, Nearly Three Years After His Passing

Owodunni Ibrahim, popularly known as Primeboy and a close friend of the late Afrobeats sensation Ilerioluwa Aloba (Mohbad), has publicly appealed for justice and the long-overdue burial of his friend, whose remains have remained in a mortuary since his controversial death on September 12, 2023.

In emotional video messages and a recent protest staged in Lagos, Primeboy expressed deep pain and frustration over the prolonged delay, now approaching three years. He urged Mohbad's family, the Nigerian public, relevant authorities, and the government to allow the singer to receive a dignified and timely burial, emphasizing that the late artist deserves peace and honor in death.

Primeboy highlighted that ongoing autopsy examinations, police investigations, legal proceedings, and family disagreements—including disputes over paternity testing for Mohbad's son, Liam—have contributed to the impasse. He also raised concerns about the handling of public donations made in support of justice for Mohbad, alleging that some family members have been "enjoying life" while the singer's body remains unburied and justice appears stalled.

“It’s been almost three years since Mohbad left us, and he’s still in the mortuary,” Primeboy stated in circulating videos. “That’s what I suffered for. Nigerian government, do the right thing. Mohbad’s family, do the right thing. He deserves to be laid to rest.”

Primeboy further called on the Nigeria Police Force to clear his name in connection with any allegations related to Mohbad's death and reiterated demands for full accountability and justice in the circumstances surrounding the singer's passing, which sparked widespread public outrage and the #JusticeForMohbad movement.

Mohbad, who rose to fame with hits like "Peace" and "Feel Good," died under suspicious circumstances at age 27, prompting intense scrutiny, protests, and calls for thorough investigation. Despite initial burial plans, his body was exhumed for autopsy amid foul play suspicions, and proceedings have since delayed final rites.

Primeboy's plea has reignited conversations online and in the media, with many Nigerians echoing the call for resolution—both in burying Mohbad and delivering justice.

Primeboy continues to stand as one of the most vocal advocates for his late friend, urging unity in demanding closure and accountability.

“mohbad has not been berried after 3 years, his family, brother and sisters are enjoying with the money people donated.
