Nigerian musicians, David Adeleke popularly known as Davido, Falz and Zlatan Ibile have joined the candlelight procession in honour of late Afrobeats star Mohbad in the Victoria Island area of Lagos.
The 27-year-old Ilerioluwa Aloba died in Lagos under controversial circumstances.
Since his demise, Nigerians have been calling for a thorough probe into the circumstances surrounding his passage.
While there have been protests in some parts of the country, Thursday’s procession is to further call for justice for the late singer.
The procession started around 7:18pm with hundreds of youths gathered in honour of the talented artiste.
The procession comes just as police authorities in Lagos State exhumed the rapper’s body and completed autopsy on the remains.
Meanwhile, the Lagos State Police Command has disclosed that autopsy on the remains of Mohbad has been concluded and the result is being awaited.
The Command’s spokesperson, Benjamin Hundeyin, disclosed this in a post on his X account, formerly Twitter, on Thursday evening.
This is coming hours after the police spokesperson disclosed that the singer’s remains was exhumed from his graveside in the Gberigbe area of Ikorodu for autopsy.
“Autopsy has been concluded. Awaiting result…,” the police spokesperson wrote.
