Following her son’s detention by the Lagos police, the mother of late musician Mohbad‘s boyhood buddy, Ibrahim Owodunni, commonly known as Primeboy, has cried out for aid.
Mohbad, a former signee of Naira Marley‘s Marlian Record label, died in a controversial manner on September 12.
In relation to the inquiry into Mohbad’s death, numerous suspects are currently in police custody, including the auxiliary nurse who treated him before his death, Feyisoya Ogedengbe, Sam Larry, Naira Marley, and Primeboy.
In a viral video on social media on Monday, Primeboy’s mother asked actress Iyabo Ojo, journalist Oriyomi Hamzat, and Nigerians at large to intercede, saying, “I do not want to lose my son.”
She further stated that she raised Primeboy “to be of good behavior,” claiming that “I do not have a child who can commit such an act.”
“My fellow Nigerians. My patriotic Nigerians, I am addressing this to you. I came out because of you. I beg you in the name of God have mercy on me. Iyabo Ojo, as you are going and coming, you will not experience evil. I know you always say the truth.
“Please I don’t have anything and anybody. I’m from a humble background. That’s why I taught my children how to be content with whatever they have. All mothers please stand for me. He is my first child. I don’t want to lose him. Do not let them use my son to settle war. Hamzat, please help me. Your children will not go missing. Ibrahim and I were also saddened by Mohbad’s death too. There is no killer in my lineage.
“That Mohbad you are talking about, once lived with me and my children. Come and ask in our area. We stayed 24 hours together. Mohbad paid for where I’m selling outside. They have used Mohbad to sadden me. Do not allow them to take away Ibrahim from me.”
The auxiliary nurse who injected Mohbad was dubbed the “prime suspect” in his death by the Lagos State Commissioner of Police on Friday.
