Many also express their utmost displeasure towards the father for rushing to bury his son without evidence.
In a recent interview shared by journalist Temilola Sobola via her official Instagram page on Tuesday, Aloba gave Yoruba culture as the reason for the quick burial. He explained that it is customary not to delay the burial of a deceased person when both parents are still alive.
The father mentioned that if Mohbad had passed away at an older age, the option of keeping his body in a mortuary for a later date might have been considered.
“In Yoruba land, his corpse is not the kind to be kept when both of his parents are still alive,” he said.
“That land where Mohbad was buried is his only land, that is the only land I know him to have owned. Truly he gave me the land to build my church because we had both agreed to build the church there and since that’s the only land I knew him to have.”
