Nigerian musicians David Adeleke, better known as Davido, Falz, and Zlatan Ibile have attended a candlelight parade in Lagos’ Victoria Island area in memory of late Afrobeats star Mohbad.

Ilerioluwa Aloba, 27, died in Lagos under questionable circumstances.

Since his demise, Nigerians have been calling for a thorough probe into the circumstances surrounding his passage.

While there have been protests in some parts of the country, Thursday’s procession is to further call for justice for the late singer.

The procession started around 7:18pm with hundreds of youths gathered in honour of the talented artiste.

A similar event is also taking place in Peckham Square, in Peckham, the UK. Participants were heard singing the late rapper’s songs in viral social media videos.

The procession comes just as police authorities in Lagos State exhumed the rapper’s body and completed autopsy on the remains.

“Autopsy has been concluded. Awaiting result…,” the Lagos Police Command spokesman Benjamin Hundeyin wrote on his X handle late Thursday.

The Inspector General of Police (IGP) Kayode Egbetokun had also ordered a thorough probe into Mohbad’s death with Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State asking the Department of State Services (DSS) to join the investigation.
