The nurse who treated late singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, known as Mohbad, has shared details about his last moments during a coroner’s inquest.

Testifying before Justice C.A. Shotobi at the Coroner’s Court in Ikorodu, Lagos, on March 14, 2024, the nurse, Feyisayo Ogedengbe, explained that Mohbad reacted to an injection before his death.

She stated that on September 11, 2023, she was called by Ayobami Sodiq, also known as Spending, to treat Mohbad for a cut. The next day, she gave him tetanus, paracetamol, and antibiotic injections.

After receiving the third injection, Mohbad started feeling nauseous and vomited. He also felt weak and had goosebumps. His wife, Omowunmi, reportedly said this was a common reaction for him.

Read the Nurse’s testimony on how Mohbad died.

“On Sept 11, 2023 I was at Cotonou to process my admission. As I was on my way back , I saw Spending’s missed call and I called him back. Then he told me I should come and treat his friend in the house who had a cut. I told him I was just coming back from Cotonou.

“I later missed his calls because I couldn’t pick up. As I got to CMS, a call came in from DJ Bami, he introduced himself that he was from Spending. I couldn’t go to the house that day. I got there the next day at about 2:30pm. I met a guy in the sitting room carrying Liam and DJ Bami led me upstairs.

“On getting to the room Mohbad was, I saw some water on the floor which Dj Bami mopped. We then moved Mohbad from the room he was to another room. It was only the 4 of us that were upstairs. Me, Mohbad, Djbami and Wunmi. As I was giving the first injection, Mohbad asked me the type of injection I wanted to give him and I told him Tetanus Injection, Paracetamol Injection and antibiotics. I first gave him Tetanus and Paracetamol Injection. After I gave him the paracetamol injection, Wunmi said he had an ulcer.

“When I gave him the third injection, he started reacting and saying he wanted to throw up. Djbami and wunmi led him to the bathroom where he threw up. After throwing up, he sat down on the floor and was very weak. Then, goose bumps appeared on his body. Wunmi told me that is how he used to react to injection and I told her that she should have told me before.

“She then said that if they pour water on his head, he will calm down. Wunmi then poured water on him. When I saw the goose bumps, Dj Bami and I quickly went down to rush to the pharmacy so we could get an antidote. We got to the first pharmacy but they didn’t have what we wanted, we then went to another pharmacy. They called Djbami from the house that Mohbad was convulsing and I told them to rush him to the hospital.”

After a cross-examination by lawyers representing Mohbad’s family, his wife, and the state, the court adjourned the case to March 21, 2024, for further hearing.

In a related development, the Lagos State Director of Public Prosecutions announced in February 2025 that Ogedengbe and Sodiq would face charges for reckless and negligent actions under Lagos State law.

The investigation into Mohbad’s death continues, with the public eagerly awaiting further updates.
