Mohbad’s Father Drops Bombshell: Says Son Rejected Marriage Over Infidelity, Insists Only Pregnancy Forced Introduction

The controversy surrounding the paternity of young Liam and the strained relationship between the late singer Mohbad’s family and his partner, Wunmi, has taken yet another dramatic turn as Mohbad’s father publicly makes new, explosive claims. In a fresh statement that has stirred intense debate across social media, the grieving father alleged that his late son refused to marry Wunmi because she was cheating on him, insisting that their introduction ceremony was done solely because she became pregnant. He further challenged the narrative that Wunmi was legally or traditionally married to Mohbad, boldly asking the public to demand proof of any bride price payment.

According to Mohbad’s father, the entire relationship between his son and Wunmi was far from the fairy-tale story many fans imagined. He stated that long before the tragic passing of the 27-year-old singer, the couple had been experiencing deep fractures in their union—fractures he claims were caused by Wunmi’s alleged infidelity. “My son refused to marry Wunmi because she was cheating on him,” he declared emphatically. “We only did introduction because she was pregnant. Ask her if we paid her bride price.” His comments immediately set social media ablaze, with supporters and critics flooding online platforms to either defend Wunmi or back the distraught father’s demand for clarity.

Mohbad, whose real name was Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, passed away in September 2023 under circumstances that are still a subject of public scrutiny and emotional debate. His death sparked national outrage, calls for justice, and a fresh wave of attention toward his personal life, especially his relationships and the people closest to him. Now, with his father doubling down on calls for a DNA test for Liam, the controversy has taken a new dimension—one that is deeply personal, emotional, and highly sensitive.

The father’s insistence on a DNA test is not new. Since the passing of the young artist, he has repeatedly maintained that the issue of paternity must be resolved. But this time, he accompanied the demand with sharp accusations. He suggested that Wunmi’s alleged unfaithfulness during her relationship with Mohbad had created long-standing mistrust, and that the late singer himself had reservations about her loyalty. By suggesting that an introduction ceremony was rushed only because of her pregnancy, he has reignited old tensions and brought new questions into the public domain.

Wunmi, who has been at the center of public scrutiny for months, has consistently maintained that she and Mohbad shared a genuine bond despite the ups and downs of their relationship. She has also insisted that the child, Liam, is unquestionably Mohbad’s. But with the singer’s father continuing to fuel fresh controversies, the public conversation has grown even more chaotic. Many Nigerians have begun to ask whether this ongoing drama is an attempt to get to the truth or simply a reflection of the fractured bond within a family still struggling with grief.

Social media reactions have been deeply polarized. Some Nigerians strongly support Mohbad’s father, arguing that he has a right to know the truth and that a DNA test would bring closure to the ongoing matter. Others accuse him of exploiting his son’s death and worsening the pain of a mother and child who are already suffering. For these critics, the father’s public statements feel less like a quest for truth and more like a personal campaign fueled by unresolved disputes within the family.

Observers have pointed out that the father’s statements raise key cultural issues many families grapple with—questions of marriage, legitimacy, and the importance of bride price in Nigerian traditions. In many cultures across the country, paying bride price is a significant marker of a recognized marriage. By openly saying, “Ask her if we paid her bride price,” Mohbad’s father appears to be dismissing the legitimacy of any claim that Wunmi was fully his son’s wife. According to him, without bride price, there was never a marriage—only an introduction held because of pregnancy.

This assertion ignited further debate. Some social media users argued that bride price is not the sole determinant of a valid relationship and that the couple had lived together, loved each other, and started a family—an undeniable testimony of their union. Others insisted that the father was correct: without bride price, Wunmi cannot be recognized as a traditional wife under certain customs. The cultural clash has quickly become entangled with emotional reactions, grief, public sympathy, and a demand for justice over the singer’s death.

Meanwhile, several fans of the late artist have expressed disappointment over the continued public airing of family issues. Many lamented that the young singer, who had already experienced a troubled relationship with his record label and battled personal struggles, continues to be in the middle of conflicts even after death. They argue that instead of focusing on love for his child and respect for his memory, those close to him appear to be fighting over issues that should be resolved privately.

Still, Mohbad’s father remains adamant. He repeatedly emphasizes that his concerns are rooted in truth, justice, and ensuring that his son’s legacy is preserved without deceit. He insists that DNA verification is necessary not just for him, but for the entire family, and that avoiding it only casts more suspicion on Wunmi’s actions. His statements come at a time when public trust is low, emotions are high, and every new revelation adds another layer of confusion to an already complicated story.

For many Nigerians, the situation feels like a tragic extension of Mohbad’s troubled journey in life—a young star who rose quickly in the music world but faced storms at every turn. His death left behind unanswered questions, and now his family is locked in an emotional tug-of-war over paternity, marriage, and allegations of betrayal.

As the debate continues, one thing is clear: the late singer’s legacy is being shaped not only by his music but by the dramatic conflicts surrounding his personal life. Whether or not a DNA test is eventually conducted, the tensions between Mohbad’s father and Wunmi have become a major talking point across the nation. Many hope that at some point, the family will find peace, that young Liam will be shielded from the emotional chaos, and that the focus will return to celebrating the brilliance of a life cut short too soon.

For now, the bombshell claims remain fresh, public reactions remain divided, and the drama surrounding Mohbad’s name shows no signs of slowing down.
