During his address at the 2nd anniversary celebration of The Envoy Nation, a UK-based church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, the General Overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, shared his thoughts about the late singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, known as Mohbad.
Bakare suggested that Mohbad had experienced the consequences of his tumultuous lifestyle while still alive.
He mentioned that the former signee of the Marlian Music record label had associated with unsavory individuals during his lifetime.
Pastor Bakare went on to reflect on Mohbad’s life choices, particularly his involvement in what he referred to as an “unpleasant lifestyle.” He asked the congregation to consider whether the name “Mohbad” was a favorable one.
He recounted a recent incident where he and his wife had listened to a recording about Mohbad, the Nigerian artist who tragically passed away at the age of 27.
Bakare noted that during Mohbad’s days of indulging in drinking, smoking, and affiliating with negative influences, he likely did not anticipate the swift arrival of consequences or his untimely demise.
In clarifying his stance, Bakare emphasized that he wasn’t assigning blame but rather sharing these observations with the congregation.
He concluded by acknowledging that Mohbad’s death occurred on September 12, 2023, at the age of 27, with the cause of death still awaiting clarification.
