LAGOS—THE Lagos Police Command, yesterday, confirmed the exhumation of the corpse of the late singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad.
The police also arrested the nurse, who reportedly injected the deceased singer prior to his demise on Tuesday, September 12.
The Afrobeat singer died last Tuesday, aged 27 under what many have termed mysterious circumstances, prompting the acting Inspector-General of Police, Mr Kayode Egbetokun, to order a “thorough” probe by the Lagos Police Command.
The Public Relations Officer of the Command, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, who confirmed the development, said: “Mohbad’s corpse has been exhumed today, and an autopsy will begin as soon as possible.”
However, responding to a further inquiry concerning arrests made by the police in connection with the late singer’s death, Hundeyin said: “I can’t answer questions on the arrests yet, because I don’t have that update. However, the nurse is in our custody; I can confirm that.
