The younger brother of the late singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, aka Mohbad, has been arrested by operatives of the Nigeria Police on the premises of the Magistrates’ Court in the Ogba area of Lagos State
Adura was said to have been whisked away on Wednesday alongside his friend, Ibrahim Koleosho, aka King White, shortly after attending a legal proceeding regarding a phone he sold to one Damola Ayinde.
Recall that Mohbad’s mother, Abosede, clashed with Yomi Fabiyi during a press briefing held in January over allegations against the late singer’s brother, Adura.
This followed a petition filed by Fabiyi on Friday, December 13, 2024, alleging that the deceased’s brother initiated an Instagram chat wherein he claimed to have video evidence of how Mohbad died.
Fabiyi in the petition he posted on his social media handles alleged that the chat went on with Adura demanding the sum of N3m to be paid in Bitcoin in exchange for the video evidence.
However, Adura denied the allegation stating that the chat was from Ayinde whom he had sold his phone.
Adura had earlier in December demanded a public apology from Fabiyi, Ayinde, and others, alleging that they hacked his TikTok account to damage his reputation.
A forensic investigation has since been conducted while the court is still probing the case.
Reacting to the arrest, Abosede broke down in tears in a viral video monitored by our correspondent on Wednesday, pleading for help to locate her son.
Speaking in Yoruba, she said, “Please help me, Nigerians. Yomi Fabiyi and Sam Jojo have taken my son. I don’t know where they are taking him to. He asked them to take my son away. My son did nothing to them. They must not lay a hand on him, he is sick. Demola, you’ve put me in trouble. Mohbad’s spirit will fight you.”
A member of the family who spoke to Punch correspondent on the condition of anonymity on Wednesday said the arrest was not unconnected to a heated exchange of words between Koleoso and Fabiyi.
“We don’t know the whereabouts of Adura but I can confirm that his friend, Koleosho, was arrested after the court proceedings today. Everything just happened suddenly. We learnt there has been some exchange of words between Koleosho and Fabiyi over the issue relating to the phone and this may have led to the arrest. We don’t know where the security men came from but we have been trying to locate their whereabouts.” the family source disclosed.
