Late singer Mohbad’s childhood friend, Ibrahim Owodunni, popularly known as Primeboy, has threatened to sue the deceased’s mother, Abosede Adeyemo-Aloba, for alleged defamation.
Primeboy, in a statement signed by his lawyer, Akinpelu Ogunbona, noted that Mohbad’s mother had during an interview accused him of having an altercation with her son before his death.
“In the said interview, you alleged that our client always fought the late Mohbad and consistently complained about his neglect by the deceased since the singer rose to stardom.
“You also alleged that our client was advised to run away after Mohbad’s death so as not to be suspected regarding the death.
“Your actions are deliberate to injure and traduce the integrity of our client, who is a rising star in the music industry. Your allegations in the interview have negatively impacted the affection and love enjoyed by our client from his fans and well-wishers around the world,” he added.
In the letter shared via Instagram, Primeboy gave the late singer’s mother seven days to retract her statements.
Primeboy further threatened to take legal action if she failed to do so.
Thegazellenews.com reported that Mohbad died on 12 September, 2023, under mysterious circumstances and was buried the following day.
On 21 September, 2023, his body was exhumed for autopsy by the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH).
