Mohbad’s death: We are investigating NDLEA – Police

Lagos State Police Commissioner, Idowu Owohunwa, disclosed on Friday that the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) is currently under investigation in connection to the death of Nigerian singer Mohbad.

The revelation was made during a live press briefing on X (formerly known as Twitter) and was monitored by DAILY POST.

Mohbad, in a video that went viral after his death, had claimed that he was arrested by law enforcement agents. In the video, he alleged, “They gave me water inside a white bottle to drink. They said I was using drugs. I was the only one who drank it, they didn’t give others to drink. And they immediately told me to go home and told the others to wait.”

He continued, “They even hit a gun on my head. I saved Zino in that video but Zino snitched on me.”

In the pursuit of understanding the circumstances surrounding Mohbad’s sudden demise, the Commissioner of Police provided an update on October 6, stating, “The NDLEA is also being investigated to see if they are complicit based on his video during the arrest.”
