The Federal High Court in Abuja has fixed September 29 for judgment in a suit seeking an order compelling the Nigeria Police Force to reopen investigations into the death of singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad.
Justice James Omotosho reserved judgment on Thursday after hearing submissions from counsel to the applicant, Chief Tunde Falola.
The suit, marked FHC/ABJ/CS/363/2026, was instituted by the Registered Trustees of Break the Silence Foundation, a non-governmental organisation.
The Inspector-General of Police, the Nigeria Police Force and the Commissioner of Police, Lagos State Command are listed as respondents.
None of the respondents was represented when the matter came up for hearing.
Falola adopted the applicant’s processes and urged the court to grant the reliefs sought, including an order mandating a fresh investigation into the circumstances surrounding Mohbad’s death.
The court also ruled on an application by Samson Obaboye seeking to be joined in the suit.
