On Tuesday, the House of Representatives paid its respects to the late Afrobeats artist, Ilerioluwa Aloba, widely known as Mohbad, who sadly passed away at the age of 27 on September 12, 2023.
A day later, he was laid to rest.
The lower chamber honored him with a moment of silence as they convened for an executive session in Abuja.
During this session, prompted by an urgent motion from Mr. Babajimi Benson, the representative of the Ikorodu Federal Constituency, the House made additional resolutions.
These included a commitment to oversee investigations and royalty matters related to the late artist.
Mr. Benson also raised concerns about the need to revisit legislation within the entertainment industry, particularly copyright laws, and expressed apprehensions regarding contracts and agreements for entertainers.
In a recent update, Perez Medcare Hospital, where Mohbad was taken, issued a statement regarding his passing.
The hospital clarified that the singer had been brought in already deceased and dispelled rumors suggesting he had been admitted to the hospital.
