A Corona Inquest to unravel the circumstances surrounding the death of music star, IleriOluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad has been set up by the Chief Coroner of the High Court of Lagos, Justice Mojisola Dada.

In response to the request, the Chief Coroner yesterday notified Falana that a preliminary inquiry into the death of Mohbad will commence on Friday September 29, at Magistrate Court 3, Candide-Johnson Courthouse, Ita-Elewa, Ikorodu.

The letter read: “I have the directives of the Chief Coroner Lagos State, Hon. Justice M.A Dada, to notify your good office of his Lordship’s order to convoke an inquest into the death of the above named Ilerioluwa Oladimeji aka “Mohbad”, in view of the letter from your office to the Chief Coroner over the tragic death which you stated occurred in lkorodu Lagos State, in the circumstances which requires the convocation of an inquest pursuant to the extant provisions of Ss. 14 & 15 of the Coroner’s system law of Lagos State, Cap C15, Laws of Lagos State 2015.
