Seun Kuti, a popular Afrobeat singer, has lambasted individuals accusing the late Nigerian musician, Ilerioluwa Aloba, also known as Mohbad, of quickly burying his father.
According to reports, Mohbad, who died in a dubious manner on September 12, was buried the next day, Wednesday, September 13, 2023.
Many of the singer’s admirers turned to social media to criticise the ‘peace’ hitmaker’s father for burying him without proper procedures and investigations.
In response to the condemnation surrounding Mohbad’s burial, Seun Kuti remarked in a recent interview with media personality Nedu’s Thehonestbunch podcast that the deceased father is only being condemned because he is impoverished.

“Poverty is playing a big role in this whole Mohbad issue. People are saying Mohbad’s father killed him because he buried him early. Who will be looking at his son’s dead body for two to three days?” He queried.
Speaking in Pidgin, Kuti asked, “If na Otedola pikin die and he bury am overnight, wetin anybody go talk here? No be sey una go dey give am condolences visit for house?
“Instead of us to be consoling the man, we are making him evil that can kill his son. Somebody that just lost his child. You like the boy pass am na hin dem dey bully the boy all these days and you no talk anything.”
