Tetanus injection, paracetamol injection and setrazon injection administered by an auxillary nurse killed singer Mohbad, the Lagos State Police Command has disclosed.
The Lagos State Police Commissioner, Idowu Owohunwa, made this known in a press conference on Friday.
He said the prime suspect in the murder is the auxiliary nurse, Miss Feyisayo Ogedengbe, who treated the deceased, saying she was unqualified to prescribe such drugs or administer them on anyone.
In addition, four other suspects have so far been identified, arrested, detained and interrogated on their alleged role in the death of the singer, the CP added.
He stated: “Miss Feyisayo Ogedengbe. She is the auxillary nurse who was contacted and invited by Ayobami Sadiq, aka Spending, a friend of Mohbad, on the 11th of September 2023 to treat the singer at the deceased’s resiemnce in Lekki. She eventually came on Tuesday, 12th September, 2023 and administered 3 different injections which are believed to have triggered the chain of reactions that resulted in the eventual death of the singer. Ashe is the principal suspect in the death of Mohbad. She acknowledged that it was the injection she administered on the deceased that triggered the reactions which eventually led to Mohbad’s death.
”Other expert opinions and witness statements corroborated her admittance. Her actions of administering doses of tetanus toxoid, paracetamol intravenous, and cetraxone injection which was also administered intravenously on Mohbad at his residence on 12th September, 2023 immediately triggered the reactions, including vomiting, goose bumps and convulsions that eventually resulted in the singer’s death. This criminal liability is further heightened, granted the evidential fact that as an auxillary nurse, she is unqualified to administer such injection.”
he also added that the late singer’s friend, Spending; his childhood friend, Primeboy, who was alleged to have inflicted the injuries that Mohbad was treated for before his death after a fight on September 10, 2023; Samson Eletu aka Sam Larry and Azeez Fashola, aka Naira Marley are also suspects in the case and have been taken into custody.
