PHOTOS: Autopsy Report Shows Possible Cause Of Mohbad's Death

The possible cause of death of popular Nigerian late singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, aka Mohbad, has been revealed through an autopsy report.

The result of the autopsy conducted at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH) said samples of the gastric content, blood, bone marrow, liver, kidney, and lung of Mohbad were retrieved for a toxicology test.

Stating the cause of his death, the report noted that there is a possibility of drug reactions in view of any significant post-mortem and toxicology findings.

According to TheCable, the anatomical and pathological findings revealed that Mohbad had an injury on his right forearm, and his body was exhumed with moderate to severe decomposition.

The autopsy also showed that “no significant gross finding” could be attributed to the singer’s death.

The toxicology “revealed the positive finding of diphenhydramine, an anti-histamine; however, this concentration was not in a fatal or lethal range”.

The report reads: “Anti-histamines are medicines used to treat symptoms of allergies. They are also used to treat a variety of other conditions such as stomach problems, colds, and anxiety, among others.”

“It is noteworthy that the body neither had an autopsy nor embalmed prior to interment on the second day,” the report states.

“It is noteworthy that the body neither had an autopsy nor embalmed prior to interment on the second day,” the report states.

“Following the Order for Exhumation, the body was exhumed on 21/09/2023 (8 days after the burial).

“Autopsy revealed moderate to marked decomposition of organs. Apart from the superficial injury on the right forearm, no significant gross finding could be attributed to death.

“Against this background, samples were taken for toxicology. This is to determine if there was any anaphylactic reaction, substances of abuse, overdosage or common household poisoning.

“Toxicology revealed positive findings of Diphenhydramine, an anti-histamine; however, this concentration was not in a fatal or lethal range. The other analytics were unremarkable.

“In determining fatal anaphylactic shock, blood sample needs to be taken as quickly as possible.

“Unfortunately, this was prevented or made impossible by the burial of the deceased on the second day. In the light of the foregoing, cause of death could not be ascertained.

“However, the possibility of a fatal anaphylactic shock (drug reaction) could be considered in view of the absence of any significant post-mortem and toxicology findings.”
