Autopsy: Toxicology on Mohbad’s body ongoing in the US – Coroner

In a recent development surrounding the untimely death of the late Nigerian singer Mohbad, the Lagos Coroner Court in Ikorodu has confirmed that a toxicology test is currently underway in the United States of America to determine the cause of his death.
O. Akinde, the state counsel on Wednesday told the Coroner Magistrate, Adetayo Shotobi, that the autopsy into the external body of the deceased had been completed.
Akinde disclosed the concerns by the counsel to Mohbad’s father, David Fadimu, that of TNKay Music Worldwide, David Nawoola, and O.S.A. Aranmolaran, representative of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) Ikorodu.
The state counsel said, “The toxicology test, which has to do with the internal body, is being done in the US.”
The reports that Mohbad died controversially on September 12, 2023, and was buried the following day in the Ikorodu area of Lagos State.
Following the outcry which trailed his death, the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Kayode Egbetokun, ordered a forensic Investigation to unravel the cause of the death.
Also, the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Idowu Owohunwa based on the IGP’s directive, set up a 10-man team, including a pathologist to exhume the singer’s corpse and investigate his death.
