Sunday, September 27, 2026 -The Federal High Court in Abuja has dismissed a suit seeking to compel the Nigeria Police Force to conduct a fresh investigation into the death of Nigerian singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad.
Justice James Omotosho dismissed the case filed by the
Registered Trustees of Break the Silence Foundation in a judgment delivered on
Thursday, ruling that the foundation lacked the legal capacity to institute the
suit.
The judge also described the application as speculative and
lacking sufficient merit, noting that the foundation failed to produce the
original police investigation report to support its claim that the earlier
investigation was inadequate.
Justice Omotosho further cautioned lawyers handling ongoing
cases against discussing matters before the court during media interviews or on
social media, describing such conduct as professional misconduct.
