The Nigerian Senate has asked the Police to deepen investigation to ensure the circumstances surrounding the death of Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba better known as MohBad are unravelled.
Gatekeepers News reports that the Chairman Senate Committee on Creative Economy, Elisha Abbo, said this when he led a delegation including Tonto Dikeh and Iyabo Ojo on a condolences visit to Mrs Adebose Olumuyi (Mohbad’s mother) in Lekki, Lagos.
The Senate vowed to ensure that anyone found responsible for his death is brought to book.
According to Abbo, the National Assembly feels it is very important to condole with the family considering the controversy surrounding Mohbad’s death.
“We want to first of all condole with the family, nobody can bring Mohbad back, we love him. What I can assure you is that the government of Nigeria will do everything within its power to investigate this matter thoroughly and if everybody’s hand is involved the person would be brought to justice.”
He disclosed that the senate would be inviting the police to brief the National Assembly on the development.
He said, “The Senate will resume on the 26th of September which is a few days from now. And we are assuring you that the Senate which belongs to the Nigerian people will look into this without any sentiment. We will look into the matter and we will invite the police to come and brief us on what they have done so far on this matter.”
The Senators advised protesting youths to desist from the act.
“I am calling on the Nigerian youths especially those who were friends or relatives to Mohbad, don’t take to the street. Believe me, I will never be quiet when I see a youth being destroyed.
If you take to the streets some people who do not love us will hijack it. Because I believe Mohbad won’t be happy to see that someone died in his name.” he said.
However, Mrs Olumuyi(Mohbad’s mother) appreciated the senator, while calling on the government to find her son’s killers.
