BREAKING: Joseph Aloba, Mohbad’s Father Announces Burial Of Late Singer
The father of the late Nigerian singer, Mohbad, Joseph Aloba, has announced that the musician will immediately be laid to rest after the DNA test.
The Genius Media Nigeria reports that Joseph has been at loggerheads with Mohbad’s wife, Wunmi, over the paternity of their child, Liam.
In a video making the rounds online, Joseph Aloba described the DNA test as the most important factor delaying Mohbad’s burial.
Mohbad’s father added that the family will move on with the burial after the conclusion of the DNA test.
He said, “Today is the DNA court case, my lawyer is here and I am telling the whole world that this is the most important thing and this is what has been delaying the burial of Mohbad. After the DNA is done, we will immediately move on to the burial.”
Meanwhile, Wunmi has taken legal steps to prevent any unauthorised attempt to claim or control the singer’s estate.
Naija News reports that Aloba filed a formal notice at the Lagos State High Court, Ikeja, urging the Probate Registry to reject any application for Letters of Administration not submitted by the lawful beneficiaries.
According to a letter dated November 19, 2025 and submitted by the law firm Salawu, Akingbolu & Co., Mohbad’s widow confirmed that she had filed Form 5 and Form 6, both of which legally bar the issuance of Letters of Administration to any party other than those recognised by law.
The correspondence, signed by I. P. Awo (Esq.), further identifies Omowunmi as the legal wife of the deceased and the mother of his only surviving child, Master Liam Aloba.
She explained that public announcements supporting the legal move were placed in two national newspapers in November 2025, warning against any: “Surreptitious or fraudulent attempts to claim the estate without proper legal process.”
Her legal team stressed that the notice already sits in court records and remains binding until the estate is duly and lawfully administered.
