The results of the autopsy conducted on the late singer, Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, would be ready in the next three or four weeks.
Director of the Lagos State DNA and Forensic Centre, Dr Richard Somiari gave this update on Wednesday while giving his testimony at the coroner’s inquest regarding the street-hop singer’s untimely death.
Mohbad had passed away on September 12, 2023, at the age of 27.
At the most recent inquest hearing on March 20, Somiari informed the coroner, Magistrate Adedayo Shotobi, that: “We expected to get the first set of autopsy results in three to four weeks and re-confirm to authenticate the cause of the death.

The public was also given assurances by the forensic expert regarding sufficient security and sample monitoring for the autopsy performed on the deceased.
“We have a place where items are stored for the safety and security of results. There is a procedure for monitoring samples moved abroad,” he said.
