Mohbad’s Widow Wunmi Spotted Dancing to Late Singer’s Hit Song Amid Ongoing Controversies
Lagos, Nigeria – August 21, 2025 – Wunmi Aloba, the widow of the late Nigerian singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, has sparked mixed reactions online after a video surfaced showing her dancing joyfully to one of her late husband’s hit songs. The clip, which features Wunmi vibing alongside a friend, comes amid renewed discussions about Mohbad’s death, fueled by Naira Marley’s recent release of documented evidence addressing allegations tied to the singer’s passing.
The video, shared across social media platforms, captures Wunmi radiating happiness as she grooves to Mohbad’s music, a moment that some fans found heartwarming, while others questioned its timing. The footage has ignited varied responses, particularly in light of recent developments in the ongoing saga surrounding Mohbad’s death in September 2023. Posts on X reflect this divide, with some users celebrating Wunmi’s moment of joy, noting, “It’s beautiful to see Mohbad’s wife vibing to his song,” while others criticized her, with comments like, “Instead of addressing Naira Marley’s claims, she’s doing TikTok.”
Mohbad, a former signee of Marlian Records, died under controversial circumstances, prompting widespread speculation and calls for justice. Naira Marley, the label’s CEO, recently released a video with alleged evidence, including chats and calls, to counter claims of his involvement in Mohbad’s death. The timing of Wunmi’s dance video has drawn scrutiny, especially as activist VeryDarkMan (VDM) recently apologized to Mohbad’s father, Joseph Aloba, for past narratives while addressing Marley’s claims.
Wunmi has faced significant public attention since her husband’s passing, including allegations from Mohbad’s father and sister-in-law, as well as demands for a DNA test to confirm the paternity of her son, Liam. Despite these challenges, Wunmi has maintained a relatively low profile, occasionally addressing controversies through interviews or social media posts. Her recent dance video, however, has shifted focus to her personal moments, with some fans defending her right to find joy amid grief, stating, “She deserves to stay happy. God is on her side.”
The video’s emergence coincides with ongoing debates about Mohbad’s legacy and the unresolved questions surrounding his death. While some netizens view Wunmi’s actions as a tribute to her late husband’s music, others see it as insensitive given the unresolved issues. As the #justiceformohbad movement continues to gain traction, Wunmi’s public appearances remain under intense scrutiny.
