Wunmi, Mohbad’s widow, urges fans to not talk ill about him
The widow of the late Nigerian singer Mohbad, Wunmi, has made an earnest appeal to fans and supporters to cease any negative commentary about her late husband.
On August 18, 2024, Wunmi took to her Instagram story to address the ongoing controversies and accusations surrounding Mohbad’s death. In her heartfelt message, she expressed her gratitude for the support she has received during this challenging period.
“I want to express my deepest gratitude to each of you for standing by me during this difficult time,” Wunmi wrote. “As many of you know, I have faced a great deal of despicable and false accusations from various sources—family, friends, and even strangers.”
Wunmi emphasized her decision to pursue justice through legal means rather than engaging in public disputes on social media. “Despite the pain, I have chosen to accept this unfortunate situation as a part of my journey. I will not engage in public debates or counter the lies being spread about me. My focus is on defending my truth in court, not on social media. However, I must speak up on behalf of Ilerioluwa, who is no longer here to defend himself.”
She urged Mohbad’s fans and supporters to honor his memory by avoiding negative comments and defamation. “I implore every true supporter of Imolenization and every friend of mine and Liam’s, to refrain from speaking ill of my husband. I beg you, with all that you hold dear, not to tarnish his memory. Disrespecting Ilerioluwa in his death is showing disdain for his entire family. Anyone who truly loved him would never speak badly of him.”
Wunmi made it clear that she does not support any negative remarks about her late husband. “Let this be a clear statement: I do not endorse or condone any negative comments about Ilerioluwa. My husband was and will always be remembered as a good man, and I want the world to remember him as such. Please, let us honor his memory by refraining from defaming his character. Thank you for your continued support,” she concluded.
