Nigerian actress Iyabo Ojo has expressed regret over advocating for the exhumation of late singer Mohbad, stating that she did not anticipate the ongoing burial delays and family disputes.

Iyabo Ojo made this known during an interview with Biola Bayo on the ‘Talk to B’ podcast. She expressed her regret following the burial delays and the ongoing disputes within the singer’s family.

“I wouldn’t have requested that Mohbad be exhumed If I knew his case would turn out this way.

“He hasn’t been buried till now. His dad says he wants DNA test done, and I heard the court has granted his request. But I heard his dad has conditions again.

“I just wanted Mohbad’s body exhumed so they could do the autopsy to find out the cause of his death.

“I did my best to be sure that everyone was investigated but when they came up with different theories, DNA became more important to them.”

Recall that Mohbad died on 12 September 2023 in a controversial manner, and buried the following day.

His body was, however, exhumed by the Lagos state police for an autopsy on September 21, 2023.

In October 2023, Mohbad’s father, Joseph Aloba insisted that the singer would not be reburied until a DNA test is conducted on the singer’s son, Liam.
