The petition is based on a TikTok conversation that allegedly reveals details about Mohbad's death.

It is the right of Nigerians or anyone to petition the police - Oluwatodimu Ige, Nigerian lawyer

In a char with Oluwatodimu Ige, a Nigerian lawyer popularly known as Oga_thelawyer, he highlighted that no one has yet been charged in relation to Mohbad’s death and that the police are still looking for sufficient evidence to support any potential legal action, which makes the NGO’s petition worthy of consideration.

In his words:

"It is the right of Nigerians or anyone to petition the police when they suspect a breach of the law, and it is the responsibility of the police, as empowered by the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and the Police Act, to investigate any petition submitted to it in the interest of Justice.

"Mohbad will not rest until he finds justice, the guy head strong like rock."

vickyjames_official1:

"This guy will definitely get justice no matter how long it takes. Except it was a death he caused for himself but if someone else has a hand in it to cut short his life. God will certainly put confusion among themselves and one day everything will be out for justice to take it cost."

kikkylovv:

omahazunna:

"Wunmi has more fans than the dead. They all know the truth but they care more about Wunmi."

sunmanjecateringservices:

"Our major problem as a people is the fact that we are very emotional which be clouds our sense of judgement and reasoning. The first suspect in Mohbad's case remains his wife , considering the circumstances!"

agbarie_jr:

"Good move, we all knew this from the beginning but sentiment, emotions and urge to follow the crowd no let the public to point in the right direction..
"Pointing at Naira and Sam Larry never made sense to me. They had issues with Mohbad which majority of people have issues with one or two persons in this world, but how they were made the major suspect in the eyes of the public when they were not even close to Moh during his death still baffles me.. Truth for don come out since if the public didn’t use emotion and sentiments on the issue."
