In order to determine the cause of the death of a singer from Lagos named Ilerioluwa Aloba (also known as Mohbad), the Lagos State Judiciary will launch a coroner’s inquest on September 29.
This is stated in a letter written by Justice Mojisola Dada, the state’s chief coroner.
The letter, dated September 26, was delivered to the Falana and Falana Chambers office.
It was in response to a request made by Mr. Femi Falana (SAN), the proprietor of the offices and a rights campaigner.
Magistrate T. A. Shotobi, who will preside over the inquest, signed the letter.
“I have the directive of the Chief Coroner, Lagos State, Justice Mojisola Dada, to advise your good office of the lordship’s order to convene an inquiry into death of Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba (a.k.a. Mohbad”),” the letter stated in part.The inquest will begin at noon in Court Three of the Candide-Johnson Courthouse in Ikorodu, Lagos (Candide-Elewa).
“We ask for your kindly help in making sure your office is present.”
According to NAN, Falana requested a coroner’s inquest into the late musician’s death on September 18.
Following the musician’s contentious passing on September 12 and burial the following day, Falana made the request.
In a letter to the chief coroner of the High Court of Lagos State, Ikeja, Falana requested the inquest.
