Mr. Joseph Aloba, the father of Mohbad, breaks down in tears on Tiktok during the public presentation of the pathologist’s report on his son’s death.
The pathologist eventually addressed the issue after more than seven months of waiting for the autopsy results.
Sadly, he disclosed that the body had already begun to disintegrate before the autopsy started, making it impossible to determine the cause of death.

According to musician Burna Boy, the only prominent Nigerian musicians he admires are Timaya, D’banj, Wande Coal, Larry Gaaga, and 2Baba.
These, according to the self-described “African Giant,” are the only legends that have had an impact on his life and career as a musician.
In reaction to legendary producer ID Cabasa’s recent call for Nigerian singers to pay homage to heroes, Burna Boy released this statement.

During a recent Instagram live session with fans, he said: “The only OGs who have impacted my life; number one, Timaya, because he is the one who showed me that achieving stardom was possible. I’m going to respect him for the rest of my life.
“D’banj also supported me back then. He paid for ‘Wan Da Mo’ video. These are two people I don’t joke with. It’s not like n*ggas don’t have respect, no, n*ggas have just been through a lot and we only remember the people we saw in the dark times. People like Larry Gaaga. He stood by me back then. So these are people I will respect for the rest of my life.
“When you’re talking about OGs, as far as I’m concerned, those names are the only ones in addition to 2Face based on musicality and the fact that he did a feature with me when he didn’t have to back in the day. These are OGs to me. Any other person isn’t an OG to me. ID Cabasa, you can meet Olamide and you can be an OG to him [laughs]. We’ve all been through stuff differently and we all see life differently.
“I can’t forget Wande Coal, too. At a point in time, we were so close.”
Grammy-winning Nigerian musician Burna Boy, also known as Damini Ogulu, has revealed why he isn’t yet ready to have a child.
The 32-year-old claims that he is not yet ready to have children because he will not be able to provide them with the care they need.
In response to an inquisitive fan during a recent Instagram live session with supporters, Burna Boy revealed this.
He said that after he was settled or married, he would have kids.

In his words:
“Why haven’t I had kids yet? Bro, because I don’t want to have kids yet.
“Have you seen my mum the way she loves me? Have you seen my dad the way he loves me?I know I can’t give that to anyone right now with the life I’m living.
So until I’m settled and I can be there for my children everyday, I’m not having no kid.
“I feel like my kids deserved better than I got. And I got both my mum and dad so you understand?”
On the allegations that he is impotent, Burna Boy said, “When I see the bants and the things people say [about me not being able to have kids], I said this is unimportant.
Let’s assume that it is true that I couldn’t even have kids, you know that there’s something called IVF? But that is not even true.”
