Police Re-arrest Mohbad’s Friend, Primeboy
Afrobeat musician Primeboy, also known as Ibrahim Owodunni, has been taken into custody again by the Lagos State police command. It was said that the death of Ilerioluwa Aloba also referred to as Mohbad, was connected to his detention.
According to Punch, he was taken into custody on Tuesday, March 12, early in the morning while he and a witness, Ayobami Fisayo, also known as Spending, were visiting the State Criminal Investigation Department in Panti, Yaba.
Mohbad passed away on September 12 at the age of 27, under questionable circumstances that later provoked protests and outcry from his followers demanding that the authorities look into his death and bring charges against those responsible.
After facing multiple charges, Naira Marley, a singer; Balogun Eletu, a Lagos socialite also known as Sam Larry; and Primeboy, were taken into custody and then freed on bond.
It was also learned that Primeboy and Spending had been required to appear at the SCID once a week since the inquiry into the events surrounding the singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, also known as Mohbad,’s death began.
Spending was freed on the same day that Primeboy was detained on Tuesday, March 12.
A source told the publication; “Both of them had gone to register their presence at SCID this morning as they have been asked to report every week. But when they got there, Primeboy was immediately handcuffed and detained. They allowed only Spending to go after he had signed. Primeboy has been locked up as I speak.”
A Gentle Reminder: Every obstacle is a stepping stone, every morning; a chance to go again, and those little steps take you closer to your dream.
