Director of Lagos State DNA and Forensic Centre, Dr Richard Somaiari has hinted at a date on which the first set of late Nigerian singer, Mohbad’s autopsy results will be released.

The medical doctor stated that the autopsy would be completed within the next three to four weeks during a coroner’s inquest on Wednesday.

Recall that the singer died on September 12, 2023, at age 27 due to unknown circumstances which resulted in the Lagos state government and masses calling for an investigation to unveil the cause of death.

While speaking at the coroner’s inquest being held at the Ikorodu Magistrate’s Court, Somiari told the coroner Magistrate Adedayo Shotobi that;

We are expected to get the first set of autopsy results in three to four weeks and re-confirm to authenticate the cause of the death. We searched for multiple possibilities, to check if poison was involved in the death of Mohbad since no actual cause was mentioned. We have a place where items are stored for safety and security of results. There is a procedure for monitoring samples moved abroad.

In the midst of this, the Lagos State Police Command also debunked the rumors of re-arresting the late singer’s friend Primeboy in connection to the singer’s passing.

They claimed that Primeboy has been consistently cooperating with the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID) throughout the investigation, making weekly visits.
