The Force Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, has disclosed that the Nigeria Police Force will interrogate as many as possible to unravel the circumstances behind the death of the late Nigerian artiste, Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad.

The Force PRO shared early Tuesday morning via his handle on X (formerly Twitter), @Princemoye1.
He tweeted, “Mohbad: Let’s open our minds and widen the scope of investigation to unravel the case.
“Many would, by now, agree with me or concur with my assertion that we need a thorough investigation to expose some hidden facts.
“We will torchlight many areas and interrogate as many as possible to get to the root of the matter and have justice done.”
He cautioned that investigations need to be flexible and multi-faceted, rather than being based on a “stereotyped methodology.”
“In investigation, you don’t have a mindset or stereotyped methodology, but be flexible, open-minded, and adopt multi-faceted approaches for a good result.
“The investigation is ongoing. let’s wait and see how it goes,” he assured.
Earlier, spokesperson for the Lagos State Police Command, Benjamin Hundeyin, had, on Monday, September 18, said that the command has set up a special investigative team with the mandate to probe the death of Mohbad.
