Twenty-four hours after being declared wanted by the Nigeria Police, Owodunni Ibrahim, popularly known as Primeboy, on Thursday surrendered to the Force in connection with the death of Oladimeji Aloba, also called ‘Mohbad’.
The Lagos State Police Command had declared him wanted and placed a N1 million bounty on his head. Mohbad died on September 12, 2023, in Lagos, and was buried the next day, but the police exhumed his corpse for autopsy purposes.
Spokesman of the Lagos Police Command, Benjamin Hundeyin, said the actions were taken after Primeboy, identified as MohBad’s childhood friend, failed to honour the invitation sent to him over the singer’s death.
Unconfirmed reports making the rounds alleged that Primeboy had hit the deceased with a fetish object during a face-off between them.
According to Hundeyin, who gave an update on the case Thursday afternoon, “Following his being declared wanted, Owodunni Ibrahim Oluwatosin aka Primeboy has turned himself in. He was, immediately, been taken into custody for interrogation and other necessary actions.
“The Lagos State Police Command once again assures family, friends, fans of Mohbad and the general public that no stone will be left unturned in ensuring a most diligent investigation. The Command equally assures that all persons found culpable in the death of Mr Ilerioluwa Aloba aka Mohbad will definitely be brought to justice.”
Also, Music star, Azeez Fashola, popularly referred to as Naira Marley, and his ally Balogun Eletu, better known as Sam Larry, were on Wednesday, October 4, 2023, remanded in Police custody over the death of Mohbad.
