Mohbad promised me N5 million day he died – Mother

The mother of Nigerian singer, Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba aka Mohbad, identified as Promise Oladimeji Aloba, has said her late son promised to give her N5m for her business on the day he died.

She made the revelation during an interview with TVC News, where she recalled how the rapper moved her from Ikorodu to a new apartment in Lagos.

Mrs. Oladimeji also said he rented a space which encompasses three shops for her and gave her money which she used to buy a generator and two big freezers.

Mohbad give mum N5m

The grieving woman said she was expecting to get N5 million from her son to buy goods on the day he passed away.

Her words; “I usually didn’t tell people I was Mohbad’s mother, because he was scared I might get kidnapped. I have spent just five months in the new house he rented for me, and he visited me three times before his demise. He took me out of where I was living before to Ikorodu (in Lagos). He said he wanted to be visiting me from time to time.

“He recently rented a space consisting of three shops for me, but I am yet to move there. He gave me money that I used to buy two big freezers and a big generator. The day he died, he promised to send me N5m, so I could buy goods for the shop.”

Mrs. Oladimeji added that her late son lived in fear and he did not enjoy himself, adding that she observed this whenever she visits his home.

She said; “Now, I am scared and I cannot go back to Ikorodu. I called someone to rent out the new shop to someone else, and give me the money. My son did not enjoy himself. He lived in fear.

“Whenever I visited him, he would be shaking his head. I even thought all those problems and attacks had stopped, but when they beat him again recently after he dropped his Extended Play album, I was shocked that those people hadn’t left him. He usually went to the police station to report, because I witnessed it twice.”
