The Chief Executive Officer of Ebony Vaults, a funeral home in Ikoyi, has provided a free casket, hall, pallbearers, and hornsmen, among others, for the second burial of late Nigerian rapper Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad.
Tribune Online reports that Mohbad passed away on September 12, 2022.
Following his death, controversies have continued to trail the incident, with many demanding justice over the tragic death.
Mohbad, whose body was initially buried a day after his death, was later exhumed for autopsy and further investigation by the police.
However, in preparation for the second burial of the late rapper, prominent Nigerian actresses, Iyabo Ojo and Tonto Dikeh visited a popular funeral home in the Ikoyi area of Lagos State to make inquiries about the necessary items needed for a proper funeral ceremony.
Updating Nigerians about the visit, Iyabo Ojo took to her Instagram account to disclose that the CEO of the funeral home generously provided almost all the needed items for the burial at no cost.
She wrote, “A visit to EBONY VAULT IKOYI in preparation for General MOHBAD’s befitting burial.
“The CEO of @ebonyfuneralng gave us a free casket, a free hall, a huge discount for the vault, free pallbearers, free hornsmen, 2 fresh wreaths, 2 wreath bearers, and a horse carriage. Thanks to my sister @tontolet #justiceformohbad🕊🕯😑💔 #Justicefordjsplash.”
