Shmurda expressed gratitude to everyone who participated in the procession and affirmed their commitment to pursuing justice for the late ‘Peace’ Crooner.
“This person is my brother, my guy, is my best friend. It’s really sad.
“I had just left Nigeria barely three days after I received the call saying MohBad had died. My mom pleaded with me not to return to Nigeria yet. I understand her.
“God bless you wherever you are MohBad. I don’t know what to say.
Thank you one for coming and Justice for MohBad,” Bella Shmurda said.”

A show promoter revealed that Mohbad tragically passed away on the same day his Canadian visa was approved.
A Canada-based show promoter, Prince George, has disclosed that singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, tragically passed away on the same day his Canadian visa was approved.
George made this revelation while speaking at the candlelight procession organized by Nigerians in Toronto, Canada, on Saturday night.
“I had planned to surprise the late singer’s best friend, Bella Shmurda, during the latter’s show in Canada by bringing Mohbad to the show,” the singer and promoter said.
“I sent a message to Mohbad’s manager in the morning of the day he died to inform him that his visa had been approved, only to be told that Mohbad had died mysteriously”, he said.
Bella Shmurda, visibly heartbroken, was also present at the event but found it difficult to speak to the audience. He mentioned that he was still in shock and deeply saddened by the death of his friend.
He said, “This person is my brother, my guy, my best friend, you know? It’s so sad. This is someone I saw before I left Nigeria, only to be called two, three days later that he had died. Everything was so funny. Even my mum had to call and tell me not to come home.”
