It Was Before Mohbad Died – Omowunmi Opens Up On Rift With Father-In-Law

Omowunmi Aloba, the widow of late singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, known as Mohbad, has stated that the rift between her and her father-in-law, Joseph Aloba, began before her husband’s death.

Speaking during an appearance on Channels Television, she explained that the issues began after she gave birth to her son, Liam.

“Yeah, we used to be best of friends. So I think we fell out, I think it was after I had my child,” she said.

According to her, disagreements surrounding Liam’s naming ceremony and unresolved family issues escalated over time.

“It was after I had Liam, because of the naming ceremony issues, and the fact that my husband forgave his mother. It was just a family feud that became something very big.

“A lot of people online feel like it’s all about the demise of my husband. But in reality, it is because of the family feud that we had before the demise of my husband,” she stated.

The late singer’s widow further alleged that shortly after Mohbad’s death, her father-in-law focused discussions on the singer’s properties and royalties.

“I literally placed a call to him because I was tensed and scared. He wasn’t saying what I needed to hear. He was just talking about my husband’s property and all of that,” she claimed

She further alleged that Joseph Aloba wants the DNA outcome to disprove Liam’s paternity.

“What he actually wants can never happen. He actually wants the DNA of my child to be negative,” she said.

Omowunmi added that the situation has deteriorated to the point where reconciliation may no longer be possible.

“It has really got to a point that I don’t think this whole family feud can be settled anymore,” she stated.

Mohbad died on September 12, 2023, under controversial circumstances at the age of 27.

His death sparked nationwide outrage, protests and multiple investigations, including court proceedings, autopsy reviews and ongoing disputes surrounding the paternity of his son, Liam.
