The Lagos State Police have now revealed why Mohbad’s father, Joseph Aloba, has refused to bury his late son.

According to a source who shared with LindaIkeji Blog, the father of Mohbad has been given the option to retrieve his son’s body, but he hasn’t taken any steps to do so yet.

‘’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?”

Recall that on Tuesday, November 21st, 2023, Gistlover reported that Mohbad’s mother stated that the singer’s remains had been released to the father, but he refused to have it reburied.
