Dr Olufunmilayo revealed that the preliminary report based on the physical examination of the body doesn’t take more than 48 hours to be ready
He advised the government to clear people’s suspicion, noting that the more the result is being delayed the more it makes people to believe the police is working behind the scene to cook up a lie
In a recent tweet, popular Twitter doctor Olufunmilayo has expressed concerns over the delay in conducting an autopsy on the late Nigerian singer, Mohbad.
With a growing number of fans eager to uncover the truth behind the unfortunate demise of the talented artist, Olufunmilayo’s statement suggests the possibility of foul play surrounding Mohbad’s mysterious death.
It could be recalled that Mohbad died on Tuesday, 12th of September, 2023, and was buried the following day.
In his statement, Dr. Olufunmilayo attributed the lengthy delay in the release of the autopsy results to the police.
He made it clear that preliminary autopsy results are often available within 48 hours of the examination, which makes the protracted quiet around these results quite perplexing.
Dr. Olufunmilayo expressed his surprise that the administration decided to keep the public from learning about these findings.
He emphasized that this secrecy could unintentionally feed the public’s growing concern that the police are collaborating closely with individuals connected to the terrible death of Mohbad.
On his Twitter page, Dr Olufunmilayo wrote:
“On the Mohbad’s autopsy situation
I will write a little piece here and I hope it gets to the right quarters.
The first thing I will state is that the decision of the Lagos state government @followlasg and the police @PoliceNG to delay and withhold the preliminary autopsy results of Mohbad is a HUGE MISTAKE.
We know the preliminary report is always ready within 48hours- so anybody who is making the decision to delay the release of this report will only give the skeptics and doubters more evidence to say that the police and the Lagos state government are in a possible collusion with the likely killers of Mohbad- if indeed he was killed.
Just to re-explain:
An autopsy is medical examination of the body of a dead person looking at the organs and body parts; but also taking the blood, body fluids and any other substances found in the person’s system. This whole procedure takes 3-4 hours to complete.
Then a preliminary report based on the physical examination of the body is ready within 48 hours while the toxicology analysis of the fluids and blood tests can take up to 6weeks.
The police and the Lagos state government should take the path of honor and transparency- by simply releasing the preliminary autopsy report. This will mean and show that the police and the govt are honest, sincere and serious in helping to seek justice for Mohbad.
As I said earlier:
The silence and delay from the government and the police in releasing the preliminary report will only suggest quite strongly that foulplay is being planned.
There’s absolutely zero sense in taking a decision that only further deepens the distrust that the public already has in the police and in the government.
Dear @PoliceNG and @followlasg
The choice is yours:
You can choose to release the preliminary report now and rescue your already damaged reputation before a public that is already wondering if you are cooking up a lie;
Or you can choose to continue to delay,
withhold the report and hope that nobody will remember, but let me assure you: you will only succeed in fully confirming to the skeptics that indeed you are not to be trusted and you are potentially corrupted and compromised.
The choice is yours.
It is not yet too late to do right.
You can choose honor or dishonour.
Again, the more this report is delayed, The more the public will believe that the government and the police is working behind the scenes to cook up a lie.
You can do right or you can do nonsense. The choice is yours.
Thank you.”
