Mohbad, a Nigerian musician, died on September 12, 2023, at the age of 27 in Lagos under controversial and unclear circumstances. The chain of events leading to his death began with a violent fight on September 10, 2023, between Mohbad and his childhood friend Oluwatosin Owoduni (Primeboy), during which Mohbad injured his hand by smashing a car window
. Following the injury, Mohbad experienced severe pain and swelling. A nursing assistant named Feyisayo Ogedengbe was called to treat him at his home. She administered injections of tetanus toxoid, paracetamol, and an antibiotic (Ceftriaxone) intravenously. Shortly after the injections, Mohbad began vomiting, experienced convulsions, and other severe reactions. He was rushed to Perez Medcare Hospital but was pronounced dead on arrival
. The nursing assistant, who was not qualified to give injections, was arrested and became the prime suspect in the investigation. The police investigation revealed that the injections triggered the fatal reaction
. Mohbad was buried hastily the next day in Ikorodu, Lagos, which caused confusion among fans because he was not Muslim. His father explained the quick burial was due to Mohbad's young age and the burial site being the only property his son owned
. Following his death, there was widespread public outcry and calls for a thorough investigation and autopsy. The autopsy was delayed, and when performed, the advanced decomposition of Mohbad's body made it impossible to conclusively determine the cause of death. The pathologist described the cause of death as "uncertain"
. Additionally, Mohbad had been involved in legal disputes with his former record label and had alleged harassment and bullying by associates, including music promoter Sam Larry and Naira Marley. Videos surfaced showing Mohbad expressing fear for his life and implicating these individuals before his death. His wife also revealed that Mohbad lived in fear and wanted to leave the country for safety reasons
. In summary, Mohbad died after a fight-induced injury was treated by an unqualified nurse who administered injections that caused a fatal reaction. His death remains surrounded by controversy, unresolved questions, and allegations of bullying and threats against him before his passing
