The father of the late Nigerian musician Mohbad, has once again expressed his doubts about the paternity of Mohbad’s alleged son, Liam.
Joseph Aloba, the father of the late Mohbad, claims that the singer rejected his son Liam before he passed.
Mohbad died on September 12, 2023, and was buried the following day.
Mohbad’s demise has continued to elicit discussions on social media, including questions about his son’s paternity.
Aloba refused to rebury his son until a DNA test confirmed Liam’s biological father.
In an audio clip making rounds on X, Mohbad’s father claimed the singer denied being Liam’s father.
He claimed that Mohabd had stated that he only slept with his wife Wumi once before she became pregnant.
“They shaved my late son’s hair before I got to his house. People saying my son did not reject Liam are lying,” he said.
“He said he only slept with Wunmi once and she brought pregnancy after their first sex.”
In December 2023, Wunmi agreed to the DNA test but requested it be conducted at three hospitals.
She also alleged that Aloba
connived with people to bully her and Liam because he wanted Mohbad’s properties for himself.
However, a recent court order mandated that Wunmi be notified of a pending DNA test application by substituted means.
In April, Olamide Onifade, a lawyer, argued that Mohbad would have conducted a DNA test on his son Liam if he doubted his paternity.
“Mohbad, during his lifetime, acknowledged that child as his own.
Once the father acknowledges his child, no third party can come out and say the child is not legitimate,” she said.
In a recent interview, Aloba openly stated that he suspects his wife’s lover played a role in Mohbad’s death.
He stressed the importance of conducting a DNA test to confirm Liam’s paternity. Aloba recalled that Mohbad’s partner, Wunmi, had previously claimed that Mohbad was the one who took her virginity. Aloba questioned why Wunmi was avoiding the DNA test if she was confident in her claims.
Aloba also pointed out that Liam has bow legs, a trait that does not run in the Aloba family. This further adds to his doubts about the child’s paternity.
He urged Wunmi to identify the real father of the boy and expressed his grief over the loss of Mohbad. Aloba condemned those he believes are responsible for his son’s untimely death.
Furthermore, Aloba made it clear that he does not consider Liam as his grandchild, as Mohbad himself did not acknowledge Liam as his son when he was alive. Aloba is calling on Nigerians to support his pursuit of justice for his son’s death.
“FROM BABA MOHBAD: All The names Mohbad mentioned in the petition he wrote, were involved in his death. I still insist that his wife’s concubine killed him. This is why DNA is a must.
Wunmi said my son deflowered her so why is she running away from DNA? Liam has ‘bow legs’. We don’t have bow legs in The Aloba family. She should take the boy to his father. It is so sad that these wicked people kiIled my son at his prime. Nigerians should please support me as I fight for Justice for my son”
