The rising singer died in a somewhat mysterious manner at a hospital in Lagos on Tuesday, September 12, 2023, and has since been buried in Ikorodu area of the state.

Since his demise, several conspiracy theories have emerged, especially on social media, where claims abound regarding an alleged faceoff between the deceased and his former record label, Marlian Records, owned by controversial singer Naira Marley.

Meanwhile, as calls for an investigation into the cause of Mohbad's death gained traction online, the Force Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, said police were committed to a comprehensive investigation into the matter.
