Mohbad's associate, Primeboy has sued the Nigeria Police Force in court for alleged abuse of his fundamental human rights.

The Lagos State Police Command, on Wednesday, October 4, 2023, declared Primeboy wanted following his failure to honour a police invitation successfully sent to him since the commencement of the investigation into the circumstances leading to the death of the singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad.

In a brief statement, Primeboy’s lawyer, Akinpelu Ogunbona, said the suit was filed before the Federal High Court, in the Ikoyi area of the state.

Ogunbona said the singer was demanding the removal of his name from the wanted list, amongst other prayers.

“Primeboy has sued the police via an originating motion filed before the Federal High Court,  Ikoyi, Lagos on October 11. He prayed to the court for a couple of reliefs, some of which included a declaration that the special police gazette bulletin issued by the office of the IGP declaring Primeboy wanted was a contravention of Primeboy’s right to respect for the dignity of his human person.  Primeboy also prayed the court to delist his name from the wanted list amongst other prayers,” the statement read.

Primeboy has since the death of Mohbad been at the centre of the controversies trailing the death of his late ally.
