The father of late Nigerian singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, has alleged that his son was killed over issues surrounding a DNA test and the paternity of a child.
In a statement that has sparked reactions, the grieving father claimed that someone who was close to the singer told him that DNA-related issues were connected to his son’s death.
According to him, the alleged killing was linked to questions surrounding paternity, although he did not provide further details or evidence to support the claim.
Speaking about the alleged circumstances surrounding Mohbad’s death, he said:
“Mohbad was k+lled because of DNA. I’m saying it now for the whole world to hear. Mohbad was k+lled because of DNA, his friend told me. He was killed because of paternity.”
Making an emotional appeal for public support, Mohbad’s father further insisted that he knew what he was saying and urged people who could assist him to come forward.
He added:
“I said concubine killed Mohbad. I know what I’m saying. Help me. Pls, any way you can be of help pls help me. And those that are standing by me will not be put to shame.”
His latest allegation has reignited conversations surrounding the circumstances of Mohbad’s death, with the DNA and paternity controversy remaining a subject of public interest.
However, the father’s claims remain allegations and have not been established as facts.

@ChideraJE said; “I find it very difficult to believe that a woman would actually kill her husband. What exactly are people trying to insinuate? That Wunmi killed Mohbad? There are so many unanswered questions surrounding this young man’s death. Does this mean Naira Marley is completely free, and what exactly was going on with the people who were visiting him during that period? I have so many questions because the entire situation is still very strange to me. One thing is clear: Mohbad deserves justice. Every unanswered question needs to be properly investigated, and the DNA test should be conducted. We cannot continue to speculate while the truth remains unknown. His family and Nigerians deserve answers. Take it or leave it.”

Lock up Mohbad’s assets until DNA is done – Journalist Kemi Olunloyo warns family
Nigerian journalist Kemi Olunloyo has reignited the controversy surrounding late singer Mohbad’s paternity dispute, insisting that the singer did not father his son, Liam.
Olunloyo made the claims in a video shared on her social media page on October 30, 2026, while reacting to reports that Mohbad’s father, Joseph Aloba, had called on activist VeryDarkMan (VDM) to speak on the matter.
She maintained that she initiated the DNA controversy in 2023, not VDM, adding that she had discussed it with Mohbad’s father during an interview.
“Everything is not VDM, VDM, VDM,” she said. Olunloyo urged the family to hire a private lawyer and ensure that Mohbad’s assets remained frozen until Liam’s paternity was established. “Lock up that boy’s asset, make sure Liam gets nothing, Wunmi gets nothing, nobody gets anything,” she said.
She also questioned the credibility of previous DNA and toxicology reports, insisting that DNA testing could be conducted using swab samples. “DNA test is not rocket science. DNA swabs,” she added. Reacting to reports of a secret DNA test scheduled for Saturday, she demanded that the location be made public. “Location, we need to know the location. Kilode?” she said.
She further challenged Mohbad’s widow, Wunmi, to make Liam available for a DNA test, alleging that the child was not fathered by the singer.
“Wunmi, why is it so hard for you to do the DNA for Liam? Because Liam was not fathered by Mohbad, you know that, I investigated you,” she alleged.
