Mohbad’s family disassociates self from Yomi Fabiyi’s call for protest
The family of the late singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba aka Mohbad has disassociated itself from the planned protest by Actor Yomi Fabiyi at the next court hearing.
Fabiyi had earlier called on the general public to join him for a peaceful protest at the upcoming court hearing to determine the cause of death of the late singer.
He also proposed that a peaceful protest should be organised for the first anniversary of Mohbad’s death to further press for justice.
Reacting to the actor’s call in a statement by a member of its legal team, Monisola Odumosu, the family warned that staging a protest within the court environment poses a threat to smooth proceedings.
The statement noted that all activities must be conducted civilly to avoid contempt of court.
“Anyone is free to do whatever they want so far he or she does it within the confines of the law. The Constitution gives everyone the right to express his or her grievances.
“However coming within the court precinct is another issue entirely. They must not make noise. The business of justice in the court must not be disturbed in any manner. Lest they be charged with contempt of Court.
“Our advice is that they should not disrupt the proceedings in the court in any form whilst they exercise their rights,” the statement said.
