“Mohbad’s Toxicology Test Is Ready”: Pathologist Begins Interpretation on Cause of Singer’s Death
The toxicology test conducted to identify the cause of death for the late Nigerian rapper Ilerioluwa Aloba, aka Mohbad, has been completed.
The Lagos State Counsel, Oluwaseun Akinde, confirmed this to the coroner’s court sitting in the Ikorodu area of the state in November 2023, stating that the autopsy into the deceased’s external body had been completed, while the toxicological test concerned the interior body.

However, a state government official who knows the matter told Punch that the test results were delivered to the state DNA and Forensic Centre last week.
The official, who spoke anonymously because he was not permitted to talk about the subject, added that the test results were delivered to the police earlier this week.
“The toxicology test is ready and given to the police. We projected 10 weeks from the outset but it came in before then. It was received by the DNA and Forensic Centre last week and has been sent to the police,” the source said.
Mohbad died at the age of 27 on September 12, 2023, and the circumstances surrounding his death sparked debate on social media.
Mohbad, a former record label signee of Marlian Music, founded by Naira Marley, quit the label in February 2022. On September 18, 2023, the Lagos State Police Command formed a 13-man special investigation team to look into the singer’s death.
His killing prompted the arrests of Naira Marley and controversial Lagos socialite Balogun Eletu, better known as Sam Larry, among others.
