A lawsuit for defamation of character has reportedly been filed by the late singer Mohbad’s management against Mohbad’s father, Joseph Aloba, as they seek the removal of his disparaging remarks and N200 million in damages.
Recall that in a TVC interview, the singer’s father claimed that his late 26-year-old son had a will.
He claimed he just learned of the thumbprint rather than the signature on the aforementioned will after Mohbad passed away.
”Would you believe that I met a lawyer and not a doctor inside that compound just for them to arrange whatever they want to arrange. I was so shocked when I heard the 26yr old has a Will, me as a father I’m 56yrs and I don’t have anything like that and I’ve never thought of it, 26yr old now have a Will which is a capital No! They collaborate with the Lawyer” he said in part.
Earlier, his management issued a statement refuting the report, stating that, to the best of their knowledge, such a will is unheard of and unreal.
According to a court letter purportedly delivered by Mohbad’s management via their attorneys, Mohbad’s father has been sued and is being asked to retract his “slanderous” remarks in exchange for an apology.
The administration of Mohbad is also requesting N200 million as damages.
