Popular Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has expressed regret over advocating for the late singer Mohbad's remains.

Speaking during an interview with Biola Bayo on the 'Talk to B' podcast, Iyabo Ojo stated that if she had known how things would turn out, she would not have intervened.

She explained that she requested Mohbad's body be exhumed for an autopsy, but a family dispute and allegations linking her to Mohbad’s death have since emerged.

She said, “I wouldn’t have requested that Mohbad be exhumed if I knew his case would turn out this way.

“He hasn’t been buried till now. His dad says he wants DNA tests done, and I heard the court has granted his request. But I heard his dad has conditions again.

"I just wanted Mohbad’s body exhumed so they could do the autopsy to find out the cause of his death.

“I did my best to be sure that everyone was investigated, but when they came up with different theories, DNA became more important to them.”

Mohbad died on September 12, 2023, in a controversial manner and was buried the following day by the order of his father, Joseph Aloba.

After several calls for an autopsy, the Lagos State Police exhumed his body on September 21, 2023.

Mohbad’s father has stated that the singer will not be reburied until a DNA test is conducted on Mohbad's son, Liam.
