Nollywood actor and activist Yomi Fabiyi has renewed his demand for justice over the death of Nigerian singer Mohbad, calling on the police to take decisive action against individuals linked to the ongoing investigation.
In a post shared on Instagram on Thursday, November 12, Fabiyi urged the Nigeria Police Force to charge suspects already accused in connection with the case to court at least two weeks before the January 2027 presidential election.
The actor stressed the importance of establishing the truth, insisting that the investigation should not be allowed to drag on without clear action.
Fabiyi also referred to a renewed investigation reportedly launched in 2025 following a directive from the Presidency. He said the probe involved fresh information and evidence submitted by him and other individuals who had petitioned authorities over the singer’s death.
According to his post, the investigation covers several materials, including videos, audio recordings, documents and court records. He also mentioned issues surrounding alleged threats to Mohbad, his professional relationships and other circumstances he believes deserve attention.
Mohbad, whose real name was Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, died in September 2023. His death sparked nationwide outrage, with fans, celebrities and members of the public demanding a transparent investigation into the circumstances surrounding the tragedy.
The case has remained a major subject of public discussion, with different individuals making claims and counterclaims about what happened before the singer’s death.
Fabiyi’s latest intervention has once again brought the matter into the spotlight, particularly because of his call for police action before the next presidential election.
However, the allegations and claims surrounding the case remain matters for investigators and the courts to establish. Any individual named in connection with the investigation should not be regarded as guilty unless proven so through due legal process.
For Mohbad’s family and fans, the expectation remains the same: a credible investigation, transparency and justice.
