The group made the request in a statement signed by one of its leaders, King White, who identified the UK-based alleged blackmailer as Adebanwo Idowu Fatai, also known as Lagata.
Justice For Mohbad Group (JMMG), a group fighting for justice for the late singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, has asked the Nigeria police and other law enforcement agencies to investigate the alleged blackmail targeted at the late singer's widow, Wunmi and some prominent members of the group.
The group made the request in a statement signed by one of its leaders, King White, who identified the UK-based alleged blackmailer as Adebanwo Idowu Fatai, also known as Lagata.
White in the statement noted that the lingering controversy generated by the death of the late singer had yet to be resolved as some bad elements masquerading as sympathisers of Mohbad's father, Joseph Aloba embarked on a huge blackmailing strategy to stop justice for the late singer.
White, who stressed that no amount of blackmail could change the group’s resolve to seek justice for Mohbad, described the late singer as a big inspiration to many up-and-coming artists when he was alive and even in death.
White said, "We have at our disposal reports of how the United Kingdom-based Adebanwo Idowu Fatai, also known as Lagata, allegedly resorted to blackmail and lies against Wunmi and members of our group.”
"As much as we seek justice for the late Mohbad, we urge the Nigerian police to investigate all the various atrocities allegedly committed by Lagata and his members even as we warn them to desist from further cyber-bullying and blackmailing of the singer's widow Wunmi and members of our group, else, we will take legal action against them.
"Evidence of their various illicit deals both home and abroad are in the public domain and we are ready to expose them to the public for them to know that they are just pretenders, serial liars and blackmailers,” he said.
SaharaReporters had reported how Mohbad's mother, Abosede Aloba, called on the first lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu; Lagos state governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, and well-meaning Nigerians to save her from those allegedly threatening her life and the lives of her children.
