My Activism For Mohbad Subjected Me To False Allegations - Iyabo Ojo

By Oluwarantimi Oludase

Controversial Nollywood actress, Iyabo Ojo, has revealed that her activism for the late singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, subjected her to various false allegations.

The actress who was recently on the ‘Glass House’ with AY revealed that many accused her of having a hand in the death of Mohbad. She further stated that she was also accused of using her activism for the late singer to gain public attention to herself.

She stated that the allegations against her were false, as she only wanted to get justice for the late singer.

She said:
“They were even insinuating that maybe I killed Mohbad. I wasn’t around when Mohbad died. I was not close to him. I didn’t really know him that much.

“My encounter with him was during One Africa music fest. For the few days that we were together, I just knew that he was a cool boy, had his own thing he was going through and doing his music.

“If I killed him, then why was I fighting for his body to be exhumed for autopsy? There was a time they said I was paid [for my activism in getting justice for Mohbad]. They also said I was looking for a political position.

“They even said I was using it for clout. There are so many things that have been said about me. But I am not bothered because that isn’t the case. All I did was just to help seek justice for the late singer.”
