The Lagos Coroner inquiring into the death of late singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, has summoned music artiste, Abdulazeez Fashola, also known as Naira Marley, music promoter, Owodunni Eletu known as Sam Larry and a friend of the late singer, Owodunni Ibrahim, known as Primeboy over the death of the 27-year-old artiste.
On Friday, the Coroner, Magistrate Adedayo Shotobi, summoned the 3 men to appear before the court at the next sitting on October 25.
The summon is on the back of the ongoing inquest to unravel the circumstances surrounding the death of Mohbad.
The coroner has also taken the evidence of two police officers, the investigating police Officer, Oderinde-Gafar Ajibola, and Muhammed Yusuf, both attached to the Homicide Section of the State Criminal Investigation Department, Panti, Yaba on the findings of the police on the matter.
In their evidence, they told the coroner that there was no evidence that Naira Marley and Sam Larry assaulted Mohbad. They also said that there is no link between, Feyisayo Ogedengbe, the nurse who administered an injection to Mohbad, and the two men.
The coroner was also informed that an autopsy is yet to be completed to determine the actual cause of Mohbad’s death.
The coroner then instructed the officers to ensure the presence in the court of the trio it summoned at the next adjourned date.
Last week, the police in Lagos named the auxiliary nurse who injected Mohbad, Ogedengbe as “the prime suspect” in the singer’s death.
The Lagos state police commissioner, Idowu Owohunwa, said the “auxiliary nurse administered multiple and highly potent injections which triggered an immediate reaction that eventually occasioned the death of Mohbad”.
The commissioner said the injections, consisting of tetanus toxoid, paracetamol, and ceftriaxone injection (IV) were administered at Mohbad’s residence.
