Details of Testimony
Omowunmi disclosed that Mohbad passed away in his room on Tuesday, September 12, 2023.
She said at noon same day, he took his bath but wasn’t feeling well.
He requested they turn on the air conditioner in his room, but when it didn’t work, they hurriedly moved him to their son’s room.
She recounted that she was in the kitchen at that time. Upon her return, she found a nurse administering an injection to Mohbad, who was requesting the removal of the syringe.
At that point, they rushed him to the hospital.
According to Omowunmi, during the car ride to the hospital, the driver noticed that Mohbad’s hands had become cold.
She narrated, “Immediately, I called a motorcycle for him, and we rushed to the hospital. Inside the room at the hospital, there were doctors, nurses, a DJ, and Mohbad’s brother.
They informed me of his passing, but I couldn’t believe it, as I had spoken to him just 20 minutes prior.”
Omowunmi mentioned that on the day before his death, they had attended a show where Mohbad had performed.
Following his performance, he complained of fatigue and a desire to go home but was asked to wait. A dispute broke out inside the car, with Mohbad’s younger brother and a friend involved.
