Mohbad’s Autopsy: Police Reveals Why Body Is Yet To Be Exhumed

With the authorization for an autopsy, the investigation into the death of aspiring celebrity Mohbad has continued to advance. According to a police source, the state command is awaiting the conclusion of documentation with the state Ministry of Health, which will be required as part of the inquiry.

Many Nigerians has asked why the Nigerian Police Force, NPF, has not yet exhumed the body of the 27-year-old late musician Mohbad so that an autopsy may be performed to determine the cause of death. According to a police source who spoke with media outlet LIB on Tuesday, September 19, said the state command is awaiting the conclusion of documentation with the state Ministry of Health, which will be required for the inquiry.

The source added that Mohbad’s body would be exhumed on Wednesday, September 20, or at the latest on Thursday, September 21, in order to do an autopsy. On the evening of September 12, the “KPK” crooner Mohbad passed away in a contentious situation. On September 13, he was laid to rest soon afterwards despite his not being a muslim . This prompted questioning and Nigerians have asked an autopsy be performed on him in response to the shocking findings that he was harassed and abused by his former label Marlian Music while he was still alive.

On Monday, September 19, the Lagos State Police Command established a 13-man team to conduct a thorough inquiry into the circumstances surrounding his passing. In two weeks, the committee is expected to provide its report. A candlelight event is expected to be held on Thursday as protest about his passing continue to spring up at almost every corner of nigeria’s entertainment space and on social media too.
