Wunmi Aloba, wife of the late singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, on Thursday penned down a message to her late husband on her Instagram page, one year after his death.
Wunmi said that though she has remained alive and survived a lot of bullying and abuse, her husband’s death, which brought unbearable pain to her and her son, Liam, still remains a nightmare to them.
Mohbad, a former signee of Naira Marley record label, died on September 12, 2023 at the age of 27.
The death of 27-year-old artiste has remained a mystery.
A Lagos Coroner’s Court, presided over by Magistrate T.A. Sotobi, is investigating the cause of the singer’s death.
Wunmi wrote, “It’s been a year today—a year since you left me and our Liam in this cold world. It’s been so hard. I miss you so much. Liam misses you too. I wish you were here to see him; you would have been an incredible father.
“I still don’t know how I’ve survived without you. God, I wish you were here every single day-every millisecond of the day. Your passing brought me unbearable pain, but it has also shaped me. I’ve learned so much, and I’m still learning.
“I’ll never be okay with you not being here; it messes with my head. I keep thinking it’s a nightmare I’ll wake up from, but 366 days have passed, and I haven’t.
“Oko mi, we had so many plans together, and you had so much more to give to this world. It hurts deeply to know that all our dreams, everything you worked so hard for, are now gone with you.
“I want you to know that Liam and I are holding on to the strength and love you gave us. Every day, I see pieces of you in him-your kindness, your smile, your spirit.
“I promise to raise him with the same love and care you would have given him, keeping your memory alive in every step of his life.
“But today, I choose to celebrate you. Today, I choose to honor your legacy. Today, I choose to give all glory to God for blessing me with you, llerioluwa. Today, I choose to be grateful for the gift of Liam-the beauty for our ashes.
“My love, I pray for your soul today. I ask that God forgives you of all your shortcomings and welcomes you to rest at His right hand. I hope it’s always a celebration up there for you.
“I love you so much. Thank you for Liam-I’m forever grateful for the gift of him! Fly high with the angels, love of my life.”
