Nigerian artist Abiola Ahmed Akinbiyi, popularly known as Bella Shmurda, took part in the candlelight procession for the late singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, also known as MohBad, in Canada on Saturday.
Addressing the gathered fans during the procession, Shmurda expressed his deep connection to the deceased, referring to him as his ‘brother, friend, and companion.’
He revealed that he was overseas when he received the devastating news of his friend’s passing. Shortly thereafter, he received a call from MohBad’s mother, urging him not to return to Nigeria just yet.
Shmurda expressed gratitude to all those who participated in the procession, emphasizing their commitment to seeking justice for the late ‘Peace’ crooner’s death.
“This person is my brother, my guy, is my best friend. It’s really sad.
“I had just left Nigeria barely three days after I received the call saying MohBad had died. My mom pleaded with me not to return to Nigeria yet. I understand her.
“God bless you wherever you are MohBad. I don’t know what to say.
“Thank you one for coming and Justice for MohBad,” Bella Shmurda said.
MohBad died on Tuesday, September 12, at the age of 27.
