Paternity Test Controversy Surrounding Late Rapper MohBad’s Son
The passing of the talented rapper, Ilerioluwa Olademeji Aloba, known by his stage name MohBad, left a void in the Nigerian music industry and sparked a controversy regarding the paternity of his five-month-old son. Joseph Aloba, MohBad’s father, has now called for a DNA test to establish the child’s paternity in response to the growing demands from Nigerians and concerns surrounding the rapper’s death.
The controversy took a new turn when a video surfaced online featuring businessman Larry Omodia, who urged MohBad’s wife to conduct a DNA test on her son to confirm his paternity. Omodia even pledged to provide N10 million to support the singer’s widow for an ‘all-expense paid’ DNA test if she agreed.

Omodia’s rationale for insisting on a DNA test stems from the numerous controversies that have arisen following MohBad’s untimely demise. He believes that conducting a DNA test is crucial, especially given a leaked conversation between MohBad and his wife, Omowunmi, during a heated argument. In the leaked clip, the ‘Peace’ singer made serious allegations against his wife, including conspiracy, and expressed that she would be held accountable if any unfortunate event were to occur.
Joseph Aloba, MohBad’s father, has now voiced his support for the DNA test, emphasizing that it has become a matter of global concern. He told BBC Pidgin in an interview, “This thing has become a majority thing, not only in Nigeria. So they should do the proper thing at the proper time.”

However, it’s worth noting that earlier, a social media sensation known as VeryDarkBalckMan faced a stern warning from MohBad’s sister-in-law when he also requested a DNA test for the late rapper’s son, Liam. VeryDarkBalckMan was threatened with a N300 million lawsuit for defamation of character if he persisted with his DNA request.
The controversy surrounding MohBad’s paternity continues to unfold, with various parties expressing their views on the matter. As calls for a DNA test grow louder, it remains to be seen how this situation will be resolved and what impact it may have on the late rapper’s legacy
