Mohbad's management shares posthumous updates on Instagram
The death of Nigerian music artist Mohbad, also known as Imole, continues to be shrouded in controversy and unanswered questions.
In a recent statement shared on his Instagram account by his managers, several updates and clarifications were provided to address ongoing misconceptions and miscommunication surrounding his passing.
The statement, issued on January 15, 2024, months after Mohbad's death, emphasised the ongoing cooperation with authorities to ensure clarity and closure for all parties involved. It was revealed that the police authorities had conducted an investigation and communicated that the autopsy results from samples sent abroad would take a couple of months before they were shared.
Furthermore, the statement addressed disseminating false information, specifically refuting the existence of a will or any thumb-printed document, as falsely reported. It was emphasised that no members of Mohbad's management or his lawyer had communicated the existence of such a document to any member of the family or the public. The statement urged everyone to refrain from sharing false and misleading statements.
Additionally, the Instagram managers revealed that all accounts owned and controlled by Mohbad during his lifetime were immediately put on a Post No Debit (this refers to restrictions imposed by banks on specific accounts, preventing customers from making withdrawals, transfers, or any other debits from such accounts) order on the 12th of September, 2023, and this order remains valid. They revealed that the accounts would be properly handed over to the family upon resolution of the internal dispute.
