Nollywood actor Yomi Fabiyi has stirred major controversy online after publicly expressing fresh concerns about the ongoing investigation into the tragic death of late singer Mohbad. In a new video posted on his social media page, Fabiyi made a direct appeal to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, revealing that he had earlier written to the President in May 2025 after receiving what he described as a disturbing clip allegedly showing how Mohbad was killed.
Fabiyi stated that following his petition, the President’s office issued a directive to the Inspector General of Police (IGP) to probe the matter thoroughly and prosecute all those involved. According to him, when the FCID Abuja took over the case from Lagos, several suspects were arrested, and Mohbad’s widow, Wunmi, voluntarily turned herself in to authorities in Abuja.
However, Fabiyi now claims the case is “being covered up,” alleging that some of the same suspects are suddenly being empowered to file petitions against him in Lagos because of the arrests. He added that these petitions reportedly question the actions of the IGP and suggest that offices under the Assistant Inspector General of Police, including SCID Annex Alagbon and Zone 2, should challenge why those suspects were taken into custody.
His revelation has sparked massive reactions online, with many Nigerians demanding transparency and accountability in the highly sensitive Mohbad case.
