Cause of Mohbad’s death yet to be known

However, I can confirm that the nurse is in our custody.”
Reports suggest that the circumstances surrounding the death of Mohbad, who passed away at the age of 27 on Tuesday, have not yet been determined. Previously, the Lagos State University College of Medicine in Ikeja confirmed the presence of Mohbad’s body at the hospital.
