Joseph Aloba, the father of the late Nigerian artist Mohbad, has revealed that he personally funded the second autopsy on his son’s body, stating that the procedure cost him N16 million. Aloba disclosed this information during a recent live session on TikTok, where he recounted the financial toll of pursuing independent forensic analysis to ascertain the cause of Mohbad’s mysterious death. “To be completely honest, I initially paid N16 million to the pathologist for the autopsy,” Aloba explained. “After that payment, I also incurred expenses amounting to nearly N2 million. So if the pathologist refutes this publicly, you should never believe anything I say again.” He addressed circulating reports that claimed the amount paid was N12 million, asserting, “Regardless of what anyone is saying, I am confirming once again—it was N16 million that I paid.” According to earlier reports by LMSINT MEDIA, this new statement from Joseph Aloba emerged just weeks after Dr. Uwom Eze, a forensic pathologist who independently examined Mohbad’s remains, declared that the autopsy could not conclusively determine the singer’s cause of death. Back in June 2024, Magistrate T.A. Shotobi of the Coroner Court in Ikorodu, Lagos State, authorized the late singer’s father to engage the services of a certified pathologist for an independent forensic autopsy.

The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command has successfully apprehended two alleged armed robbers reportedly responsible for a series of violent attacks in the Kurudu area and its surroundings. The suspects, identified as Hassan Adamu and Auwal Mohammed, both aged 25, were captured on May 8 around 2:00 p.m. by operatives of the Scorpion Squad during a meticulously coordinated raid. According to authoritative police sources, the duo has been linked to numerous armed robbery cases, raising concerns about the safety of residents in Kurudu. One of the arrested individuals made a confession relating to a disturbing robbery incident at Angwan Hausawa in Kurudu. In the course of the attack, a male victim, identified as Mohammed, was stabbed and later succumbed to the wounds inflicted during the assault. The operation was based on actionable intelligence, leading law enforcement officers to a hideout in Kurudu, where the suspects were ultimately detained. During the search, officers recovered a sharp dagger, which was allegedly meant to be used to resist arrest or inflict harm on police personnel. Additionally, the suspects disclosed the names of other gang members who remain at large. Authorities believe the fugitives are still armed and pose a threat to public safety. The FCT Police Command has since intensified its efforts, launching a manhunt to capture the remaining members of the gang and retrieve more dangerous weapons that may still be in circulation.

A faction of the All Progressives Congress (APC) known as the Young Leaders Alliance (YLA) staged a protest at the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) headquarters in Abuja on Friday, calling for the immediate revival of an investigation into corruption allegations involving Bello Matawalle, Nigeria’s current Minister of State for Defence. The YLA, which identified itself as a Kaduna-based socio-political pressure group, criticized the EFCC for allegedly abandoning the case, despite receiving several petitions and having previously expressed interest in investigating the former Zamfara State governor. During the demonstration, the group delivered a formal petition, raising concerns over the agency’s perceived inaction. The petition questioned why the EFCC had not progressed with investigating the alleged financial irregularities between 2019 and 2023 involving Matawalle. “We are officially urging the EFCC to reopen its investigation into corruption allegations against Bello Mohammed Matawalle, who now serves as Minister of State for Defence,” the group wrote in its letter. The YLA accused Matawalle of disseminating misleading information in a recent live broadcast, where he claimed that his administration never handled close to ₦70 billion throughout its four-year term. Contradicting Matawalle’s public statement, the group cited verified financial reports and official documents from that period that allegedly exposed discrepancies in his claims. While addressing the media, Mohammed Ireyi, the spokesperson of the group, criticized what he termed EFCC’s “selective silence”, suggesting a potential lack of impartiality in the commission’s duties. “If other ex-governors and ministers like Betta Edu, Yahaya Bello, and Darius Ishaku have undergone investigations or arrests, why is Matawalle seemingly exempt? Who is preventing the EFCC from fulfilling its mandate?” Ireyi questioned. Furthermore, the protestors referenced a statement made in May 2023 by then EFCC spokesperson Osita Nwajah, who had confirmed that the commission was actively investigating Matawalle over allegations of large-scale corruption, awarding non-existent contracts, and the diversion of over ₦70 billion in public funds. The group emphasized the importance of resuming the investigation, stating that it was necessary to reinforce the EFCC’s integrity and reaffirm its commitment to transparency and accountability in Nigeria’s anti-corruption campaign.

Anambra State Governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo, has extended heartfelt congratulations to Catholics in Anambra and across the globe following the successful election of a new leader of the Roman Catholic Church. On Thursday, the Vatican officially confirmed the election of Robert Cardinal Prevost, who has taken the name Pope Leo XIV. The announcement has sparked widespread celebration, especially in Anambra, which hosts one of the largest Catholic populations in Nigeria. Notably, the state is home to two cardinals, one of whom was among the electors in the recent papal conclave. In a statement issued by his Press Secretary, Mr. Christian Aburime, Governor Soludo expressed profound joy over the development. He noted that the emergence of Pope Leo XIV symbolizes the global and inclusive nature of the Catholic Church. “He is the first American Pope, with strong French and Italian heritage, and meaningful ties to the Peruvian Catholic community,” Soludo stated. The governor highlighted Pope Leo XIV’s significant missionary and pastoral contributions in Peru, where he served as a parish priest, seminary rector, and educator in Canon Law. These roles, according to Soludo, underscore the Pope’s deep spirituality and unwavering service to God and humanity. Governor Soludo further praised the new Pope’s exceptional academic background, which includes degrees in Mathematics and Canon Law, as well as his leadership within the Order of St. Augustine. These qualities, Soludo said, prepare him effectively for the responsibilities of the Petrine ministry. Extending his congratulations to Catholics in Anambra, Nigeria, and worldwide, the governor prayed that Pope Leo XIV would be guided by the Holy Spirit as he addresses the moral, spiritual, and geopolitical challenges of today’s world. Soludo also urged the Pope to prioritize interfaith dialogue, global peacebuilding, and the protection of human dignity. He emphasized that the Pope’s previous role as Provincial of the Augustinian Province of Chicago reflects both his administrative acumen and his sensitivity to the diverse realities of the global Catholic faithful.
