Singer Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba aka Mohbad’s widow, Wunmi, has cried out for Nigerians to beg her father-in-law, Joseph Aloba, to bury the late musician.
On March 12, 2025, Wunmi took to her Instagram page to share a lengthy note where she cried out over Mohbad’s corpse still being in the morgue 18 months after his death.

Wunmi started her post by grieving her husband and opening up about 18 months of missing him and raising their son, Liam, alone. According to her, despite grieving, she is also crying out for something a wife should never beg for.
Mohbad’s widow then went on to tell Nigerians that she was appealing to them to help her beg Baba Mohbad to bury her husband. According to her, Mohbad’s dad isn’t keeping his son’s body in the morgue out of grief but is doing it because of the attention and money he has been getting from not moving forward with the situation.
Wunmi wrote:
“To the general public, l am pleading with you, help me ask my father-in-law to bury my husband.
There is no reason, no justification for why his body is still lying in the morgue after all this time. No reason why the man I vowed to love forever has been left in cold storage, denied the dignity of a final resting place.
My father-in-law is keeping him there out of love or grief. He is holding on because of the attention and money he continues to receive. He knows that once my husband is finally laid to rest, the public sympathy, the donations, the sudden fame he has found will disappear. He is dragging this on, not because he seeks justice, but because he benefits from my husband's death.”
Speaking further, Wunmi added that Baba Mohbad has also refused to let them do the DNA test he was pushing for because he doesn’t want a resolution and wants to continue getting financial aid from people. She wrote:
“He is also delaying the DNA test he demanded so loudly. He does not want the truth, he wants the conversation to continue because as long as it does, the money and support will keep coming.”
Mohbad’s widow ended the post with an emotional appeal for her late husband to be buried so that he could finally rest and Liam could have peace.

Chrystalmickey said:
“Dear Wunmi, you've cried and begged enough. Please leave his carcass for his family, let them them make dry meat of him if they will. God will spare your life to tell your son Liam of how his father's family treated him. Please for your sanity, forgive yourself, give yourself closure and move on far far away from everything that has to do with his family until your son is adult and asks for accountability or maybe not.”
