Yomi Fabiyi pushes for justice for Mohbad before 2027 elections
The actor did not hold back, writing directly to the Nigeria Police Force and several government handles. In his words:
"Only the TRUTH can set the people 'FREE'. It is very important the Nigerian Police @nigeriapoliceforce charge the suspects already accused of complicity in Mohbad's case to court at least two(2) weeks before the general election."
Yomi Fabiyi also referenced a re-investigation that was launched in 2025 following a directive from the Presidency, which he said came after he and others submitted a petition with new leads on the matter.
He noted that as of November 2025, three individuals had been arrested in connection with the case, including Omowunmi Cynthia Aloba nee Adebanjo.

What the investigation covers
According to Yomi Fabiyi, the investigation report is extensive and covers a wide range of material, including videos, audio recordings, paper documents and court records.
He said the probe traces back to a court case the late singer filed against Orchard Enterprise NY, which he described as indirectly targeting Marlians Records and Music, Mohbad's label.
The actor claimed the report also examines alleged threats to Mohbad's life, family compromise, police corruption, the roles of social media influencers and criminal blogs, as well as the involvement of state government officials.
Mohbad, born Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, died in September 2023.
His passing triggered widespread public outrage and demands for accountability, with Yomi Fabiyi positioning himself early on as one of the most vocal advocates for a credible investigation into the circumstances of his death.
