The family of late Afrobeats singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, has opposed plans to send samples from his son, Liam, to an unidentified laboratory in the United States for a DNA test.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

The family is demanding that the identity of the laboratory be made public and that the sample collection scheduled for Saturday at Mainland General Hospital/IDH, Yaba, Lagos, be suspended pending clarification.

The head of the family, Samuel Aloba, raised the concerns in a statement issued on Thursday.

According to the family, a court order dated May 5, 2026, specifically designated the Lagos State DNA and Forensic Centre to conduct the DNA test.

The family questioned whether the centre would carry out the examination itself or merely collect the samples before sending them to another laboratory abroad.

“This raises a fundamental question that must be answered before the exercise proceeds: Is the Lagos State DNA and Forensic Centre itself going to conduct the examination contemplated by the court, or is it merely going to collect and dispatch samples to another laboratory?” the statement read.

The family maintained that no party should change the arrangement contained in an existing court order without first seeking clarification from the court.

It also demanded the name and address of the proposed US laboratory, evidence of its accreditation and professional competence, as well as comprehensive details of how the samples would be handled from collection to analysis.

Additionally, the family requested assurances that the samples collected in Lagos would be properly documented and that their identity could be verified throughout the process to ensure they were the same samples examined by the foreign laboratory.

Addressing suggestions that the laboratory’s identity could be disclosed only to the court, the family argued that confidentiality should not come at the expense of transparency and accountability.
