Joseph Aloba, the father of the late singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba aka MohBad, has continued to speak on issues around him.
He said MohBad owned the land on which he was buried in Ikorodu, Lagos State, but he had given him (father) to build his church.
The artiste died the age of 27 on September 12, with the burial taking place the following day.
In a recent interview shared by Temilola Sobola (@TemilolaSobola) via Instagram on Tuesday, Aloba said:
“Truly he gave me the land to build my church because we had both agreed to build the church there and since that’s the only land I knew him to have.”
he further noted identified Yoruba culture as the reason for the quick burial, explaining that it is customary not to delay the burial of a deceased person when both parents are still alive.
He mentioned that if Mohbad had passed away at an older age, the option of keeping his body in a mortuary for a later date might have been considered.
Aloba further revealed that the land where his son was laid to rest belonged to Mohbad and that he had given it to him to build a church. He clarified that the decision to bury him swiftly was in accordance with Yoruba customs.
“That land where Mohbad was buried is his only land, that is the only land I know him to have owned.
The management of Mohbad, on Monday, announced a candlelight procession and tribute night for the late artiste Thursday (tomorrow) while the Lagos State Governor, on Wednesday, invited the Department of Security Services to join the probe of late singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad.
