On Monday, the Lagos State Magistrates’ Court in Yaba remanded in custody Fisayo Ogedengbe, a 37-year-old auxiliary nurse arrested by police in connection with the controversial death of hip hop artiste Ilerioluwa Aloba, aka Mohbad.
It was alleged that the late singer died as a result of shots administered by the nurse.
In the same vein, Adeola Olatunbosun, the magistrate, ordered that Mohbad’s companion, Ayobani Sadiq, who is also being held as a suspect in the case, be returned to police custody.
The magistrate, on the other hand, granted bail in the sum of N20 million to each of Mohbad’s ex-boss, Azeez Fashola, aka Naira Marley, and a Lagos socialite, Balogun Eletu, aka Sam Larry, who were both accused in Mohbad’s killing and arrested by police on October 6.
The magistrate said, “The defendants (Naira Marley and Sam Larry) are hereby granted bail in the sum of N20m with three responsible sureties in like sum pending the legal advice from the Office of the Directorate of Public Prosecution.
“Also, one of the sureties must own a landed property. As part of the bail conditions, the defendants are to surrender their passports and make weekly appearances at the State Criminal Investigation Department.”
Olatunbosun also warned that no one should contact her directly on the case.
“Any attempts to contact me directly would be recorded and potentially disclosed in open court proceedings,” she added.
According to the police, the investigation on the case is still ongoing, hence Olatunbosun adjourned the case till November 29 for DPP advice.
