Popular Human Rights Activist Femi Falana has reportedly withdrawn from representing the family of the late Nigerian artist Mohbad amidst a backdrop of family disputes and contradictory statements.
A recording has surfaced where an undisclosed man claimed that challenges within Falana's chamber, attributed to the behavior of the late Mohbad's family, led to his withdrawal. According to the man, the family's interactions with various media outlets resulted in conflicting statements, impeding the progress of seeking justice for the deceased.
Furthermore, it was mentioned in the recording that the family of the late Mohbad, particularly the patriarch Aloba, and his daughter-in-law Wunmi, have been embroiled in a bitter feud.
Allegations have been exchanged, with Aloba accusing Wunmi of attempting to harm him, while Wunmi retaliated by taking legal action against her father-in-law for defamation and issuing a pre-action notice.
The man in the recording also alleged that the court had deemed such family disputes as commonplace and urged Falana not to withdraw from the case, citing his esteemed reputation.
