In a major development surrounding the ongoing legal battles over the estate and paternity controversies of the late Nigerian singer, Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, the Magistrate Court in Ikorodu, Lagos, has ordered that a DNA test be conducted on his son, Liam Aloba.
The ruling, delivered today, follows heated arguments and petitions filed by interested parties questioning the true paternity of the child. Mohbad, who passed away under controversial circumstances in September 2023, left behind his widow, Wunmi Aloba, and their young son Liam. Since his death, disputes over inheritance rights, property claims, and family disagreements have continued to dominate public discourse.
During the court session, the magistrate emphasized the need for clarity, fairness, and transparency in resolving the matter. The court ordered that the DNA test be carried out in a government-approved medical facility, with strict supervision to prevent tampering or compromise of results. The outcome of the test, once concluded, will play a decisive role in settling questions surrounding the child’s legal rights as Mohbad’s heir.
The directive has sparked fresh reactions across social media, with many Nigerians expressing mixed feelings. While some see it as a necessary step toward justice and peace within the family, others have criticized the move as an unnecessary invasion of privacy.
Mohbad, a rising star in the Nigerian music industry, tragically passed away at just 27 years old, leaving behind a legacy of music and a storm of unresolved controversies. With the court’s latest order, the case is set to take yet another dramatic turn in the search for truth and justice.
