Adura Aloba, the younger brother of the late Nigerian singer Mohbad, has been arrested by the police.
According to a viral video posted by Abosede Aloba, Mohbad’s mother, Adura was arrested at the premises of the magistrate court in Ogba, Lagos state, on Wednesday.
Abosede accused actor Yomi Fabiyi and a person named Sam Jojo of being behind Adura’s arrest.
She claimed that Adura was in court as a witness over a phone he sold to someone named Damola, and was arrested shortly after.
Abosede, who appeared distraught, called on Nigerians to help her and ensure that nothing happened to her son, who she said was also unwell.
“I do not know where they took my son to. It is Yomi Fabiyi and Sam Jojo. They have carried my son away, he did not do anything. Nigerians, please they must not touch or beat my son, he is not feeling well,” she said.
“Please help me, Yomi Fabiyi and Sam Jojo are behind it. They are the ones who they be picked up at the court premises. He was even in court for something he knows nothing about, it is Yomi Fabiyi.
“The person behind the issue has confessed, he said he was the one who did it. They have been begging me since morning, even his lawyer begged I did not to accept because the matter is already in court, and there is nothing I can do.
“I am not the one who took him to court but because my son is the one who sold the phone, he had to appear in court as a witness. It is Yomi Fabiyi, the person who offended, and his lawyer was left alone. Help me Nigerians, Yomi Fabiyi is behind it.”
In a statement shared on Thursday, the actor denied claims that he was responsible for Adura’s arrest.
“Adura Aloba, Damola Ayinde Habeeb and Damilare Koleosho were persons of interest in an ongoing homicide investigation and fact-finding by the Assistant Inspector General of Police (AIG ZONE 2 Police Command) via a petition and evidence from our Human Rights NGO,” the statement reads.
“They were duly invited and served invitation letters on three different occasions, which they refused to honour.
“They were called many times, and the Adura Aloba and Damola Ayinde Habeeb duo remained indifferent to the invitation. Meanwhile, Damilare Ibrahim Koleosho had several banters via WhatsApp chat with the Investigating Police Officer (IPO) about why he would never honour the invitation. His other accomplices are still at large.”
In January, Abosede and Fabiyi clashed after the actor claimed that Adura knew about the cause of Mohbad’s death.
Fabiyi claimed that Adura messaged him on Instagram, saying he was aware of the circumstances surrounding Mohbad’s death.
Abosede, however, disputed the claim, alleging that the message was sent by Damola, who had purchased Adura’s phone.
