The Coroner’s inquest into the death of the late Nigerian singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba known as Mohbad, has fixed October 13, 2023, for witnesses to appear before it.

The Coroner sat on Friday at the Magistrate court in Ikorodu, Lagos State, according to BBC Pidgin.

Funmi Falana, who represented Mohbad’s family, alongside other lawyers, had closed-door proceedings to discuss the modalities for hearing of evidence.

Speaking to the journalist after the proceedings, Falana said,

“What we did today was to decide how and when the procedures would help get justice. The date has been fixed and will be bringing our witnesses,” Falana told journalists at the Candide Johnson’s court.

The lawyer assured family and fans of the late singer that Mohbad will get justice.

“We are representing the interest of justice, we should allow peace to reign but justice must be served. We are going to get to the cause of the death,” she added.
