Nollywood actress, Iyabo Ojo, has disclosed that her advocacy efforts aimed at securing justice for the deceased Nigerian musician, Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, have elicited adverse criticisms and significant accusations directed towards her.
In a recent discourse on the ‘Glass House’ platform hosted by AY,Iyabo Ojo articulated that she faced allegations of being complicit in the death of Mohbad.
Furthermore, she indicated that she was also accused of exploiting his demise to gain public attention.
The actress asserted that, in stark contrast to the aforementioned allegations, her intentions were sincerely focused on advocating for justice for the late musical icon.
Iyabo Ojo said, “They were even insinuating that maybe I killed Mohbad. I wasn’t around when Mohbad died. I was not close to him. I didn’t really know him that much.
“My encounter with him was during One Africa music fest. For the few days that we were together, I just knew that he was a cool boy, had his own thing he was going through and doing his music.
“If I killed him, then why was I fighting for his body to be exhumed for autopsy? There was a time they said I was paid [for my activism in getting justice for Mohbad]. They also said I was looking for a political position.
“They even said I was using it for clout. There are so many things that have been said about me. But I am not bothered because that isn’t the case. All I did was just to help seek justice for the late singer.”
