Bankole Wellington, nicknamed Banky W, a popular singer and actor-turned-politician, has urged police to leave no stone unturned in their ongoing probe into the death of rapper Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad.
He urged the law enforcement agency to be open about the investigation, emphasising that “the world is watching.”
In a recent interview with BBC Pidgin, the ‘Ebute Metta’ singer made the accusation.
He congratulated Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu for inviting the Department of State Services (DSS) to participate in the probe.
He said, “The story of Mohbad’s death is a heartbreaking and sad one; it was terrible what happened to him. There have been two things on my mind: number one, his death and honestly, they need to conduct a proper investigation for the sake of his wife, his son, fans and associates. I heard that the governor has brought the DSS into the investigation, but they should be thorough with their investigation because the world is watching.”
Tooxclusive recalls that Mohbad died in a controversial manner on September 12, 2023, and was buried the next day.
His body was later exhumed for autopsy to aid the ongoing police investigation into his sudden demise.
