Nearly three years after the death of Nigerian singer Mohbad, his close associate, Primeboy, has renewed calls for the late artiste to be laid to rest, revealing that his body has remained in the mortuary since September 12, 2023.
In a heartfelt video message, Primeboy appealed to Mohbad’s family, the public, and government authorities to allow the burial to take place. “It’s been almost three years since Mohbad left us. His body is still in the mortuary. I’m begging the family, I’m begging the public, I’m begging the government, please let’s bury our brother. He deserves a befitting burial,” he said, emphasizing the urgency of giving the singer the respectful farewell he deserves.
Mohbad’s death in 2023 had sparked widespread public outrage, protests, and investigations into the circumstances surrounding his passing. Subsequent autopsy examinations, police inquiries, and ongoing legal proceedings have delayed burial arrangements, compounded by disagreements within the family and intense public scrutiny.
Primeboy’s appeal has reignited conversations about closure for fans and loved ones, highlighting the emotional and cultural significance of timely burial rites in Nigeria. The plea underscores a growing demand for resolution, as supporters and the music community continue to honor Mohbad’s legacy while awaiting his final resting place.
