May 20, (THEWILL) – Joseph Aloba, the father of the late singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, aka Mohbad, claims that the singer rejected his son, Liam, before he passed.
Mohbad died on September 12, 2023, and was buried the following day.
On September 21, his body was exhumed by police for an autopsy.
Eight months later, an autopsy failed to determine the cause of death, as the singer’s body had decomposed when tests were conducted.
But Aloba has refused to rebury his son until a DNA test confirms Liam’s biological father.
In an audio clip making rounds on X, Mohbad’s father claimed the singer denied being Liam’s father.
He claimed that Mohabd had stated that he only slept with his wife, Wumi, once before she became pregnant.
“They shaved my late son’s hair before I got to his house. People saying my son did not reject Liam are lying.
“He said he only slept with Wunmi once and she brought pregnancy after their first sex”, he stated.
In December 2023, Wunmi agreed to the DNA test, but requested it be conducted at three hospitals.
She also alleged that Aloba connived with people to bully her and Liam because he wanted Mohbad’s properties for himself.
However, a recent court order mandated that Wunmi be notified of a pending DNA test application by substituted means.
In April, Olamide Onifade, a lawyer, argued that Mohbad would have conducted a DNA test on his son, Liam, if he doubted his paternity.
“Mohbad, during his lifetime, acknowledged that child as his own. Once the father acknowledges his child, no third party can come out and say the child is not legitimate”, she said.
