The results of the toxicology test, which was carried out to ascertain the cause of death for the deceased singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, also known as Mohbad, are in.
State attorney Oluwaseun Akinde acknowledged the examination’s American origins at a November 2023 session at the coroner’s court in the state’s Ikorodu district, according to reporting from PUNCH Metro.
Akinde stated that the toxicological test sought to look at internal issues, while the autopsy focused on the deceased’s outward body.
The test results were then returned to Nigeria, according to a Lagos State Government official who told The PUNCH’s correspondent on Thursday. The official asked to remain anonymous since they were not authorized to discuss the topic. He also claimed that the police had received a copy of it.
“The cops have been provided the completed toxicological test. Although we had anticipated ten weeks from the start, it arrived earlier. During the #EndSARS protest, the laboratory that would have completed the task was destroyed by fire.
As a result, the official revealed, “I think the Lagos State government has done what it should have done; the ball is now in their court. The sample has to be taken abroad, and now that it has been brought back, it is for the police to proceed with their investigation and charge people who needed to be charged to court and call on the government to prosecute.”
The outcome was confirmed by a Lagos State Police Command source who spoke to the media on condition of anonymity since they were not permitted to do so.
We have the toxicological report. Although it is medical jargon for us, it arrived on Monday. We’re not sure what it is. You will never comprehend what it is, even yourself. For a more accessible interpretation, it has been sent to the pathologists who performed the autopsy. The PPRO’s office will provide the interpretation as soon as it is available, the insider disclosed.
