How I paid N16m for Mohbad’s second autopsy – Singer’s father claims

Joseph Aloba, father of the late singer Mohbad, has revealed that he paid a pathologist the sum of N16 million to conduct a second autopsy on his son.

He made the disclosure during a recent live broadcast on TikTok.

“With all sincerity, I paid the first tranche of N16 million to the pathologist. After that, I spent close to N2 million. So, if the pathologist can come out to deny my claim, then don’t believe me again.

“Some people were saying it was N12 million that I paid, but I’m still telling you now that I paid N16 million.”

The revelation comes about a month after an independent forensic review and autopsy conducted on Mohbad’s remains by Dr. Uwom Eze was unable to establish a definitive cause of death.

In June 2024, a Coroner Court magistrate in Ikorodu, Lagos State, T.A. Shotobi, granted permission to Mohbad’s father to engage a certified pathologist for an independent examination.
