In a video circulating online, Joseph Aloba was seen expressing his displeasure with the idea of his son being reburied now. According to him, Mohbad is still his son even in death and anything that would be done to his body should be with his authorisation.

Not stopping there, Mr Aloba noted that they have all been fighting for justice for Mohbad and reburying him would defeat the purpose because the matter would only die down.

The old man also reiterated the need for a DNA test to be done on Mohbad’s son, Liam, before his corpse is reburied.

In his words:

“I heard some people want to go and carry Mohbad’s body. When this boy was alive, he was my son and even after death, he is still my son. Nobody should go and take his body. If anything must be done, I will be the one to authorize it. We are seeking Justice for Mohbad and you people are talking of burial. What remains after burial? Let Justice take place first and DNA is very necessary please.”

cyn_thialuv:

“Nawa for you oo. What if after DNA this boy turns out to be your grandson, how would you face him in future? Rest na. Mohbad is your son yes, but remember he married legally and you supported him.”

sherrybanjo:

“At this point Iyabo and Tonto should let go of Justice for Mohbad. We won’t blame you guys that you bailed out. Henceforth, @iyaboojofespris please nitori Olorun, don’t you ever stand up or stand by or stand for anything that got to do with Nigerians again. We all deserve everything going with us as whole.”

alluringwoman_ng:

“This man doesn’t care about Justice. He just wants Liam not to be Mohbad’s so he can take all the properties . I said this thing from the beginning, people abuse me here. If they give him all the money and properties Moh left behind, he won’t even care about DNA again.”

bigceuk:

“But you rushed to bury him at midnight... Your own parents failed to give you the parenting you deserve and reasons why you failed your son even in death. Imagine a so-called man of God who lacks forgiving spirits. I pray the DNA turns out well so you can be ashamed of yourself...... Now he's no more, you've doubts that he's not your grandson, so the public will validate DNA for your own grandson. Chaii sleep well Ilerioluwa.”
