In a recent press release, the Palace of His Royal Majesty, Oba Saheed Ademola Elegushi of Ikate-Elegushi Kingdom, has strongly condemned what they describe as a “campaign of calumny” against the person and throne of the Elegushi of Ikate.

The Palace expressed deep concern over various social media posts that aim to tarnish the image of His Royal Majesty and bring the throne into disrepute.

The statement highlighted that despite ongoing investigations by the police into the death of Ilerioluwa Aloba, known as Mohbad, individuals have been spreading baseless allegations linking the palace and Oba Saheed Elegushi to the tragic incident. The Palace emphasized that there was no known relationship between the palace and the late singer or his family.
