A close associate of late Nigerian singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, better known as Mohbad, Ayobami Sodiq, popularly known as Spending, has denied concealing information on the singer’s death.
Naija News learnt that Sodiq had mentioned two separate times while speaking about his last encounter with the late singer after his release from detention.
However, in a post via his Instagram page on Monday, Sodiq explained that he last saw Mohbad alive between 11 am and 12 pm, contrary to his earlier claim of 9 pm.
He apologised for any confusion caused, attributing the time discrepancy to the emotional trauma and anxiety he experienced following Mohbad’s sudden death.
Sodiq revealed that he was wrongfully accused of being present at Mohbad’s house on the day of his death and was detained at the police station.
Mohbad’s ally added that he was not in the right frame of mind when questioned earlier, leading to the inconsistency.
He wrote, “I would like to make a clarification on the last time I saw him alive was between 11 am and 12 pm. I recall that sometime in February 2024, shortly after I was released from detention, I appeared at Westo’s livestream on his TikTok platform to appreciate everyone who donated money towards my release which was the plan. However, Westo asked me the last time I saw Mohbad before his demise, and I said I saw him last at 9 PM on Monday after we got back from the show.
“The timing I gave is not accurate. I had suffered emotionally, dealing with anxiety and psychological, mental and physical trauma from Mohbad’s unexpected passing away, who I so miss. I was wrongfully accused of being present in Mohbad’s house on the day he passed away and being detained at the police station. I wasn’t in the right frame of mind when Westo asked the question.”
