“No Mortuary Or Hospital Could Take His Corpse” – Adetoun Onajobi Speaks On Her Father’s Death

Nigerian activist, Adetoun Onajobi has shared the hardships she encountered following her father’s death.

During an interview with a media personality, Chude Jideonwo, the activist revealed the difficulties she faced with mortuaries and hospitals refusing to accept his corpse.

Recounting the events surrounding her father’s death, Adetoun revealed that when he passed away, hospitals declined to admit his body, citing concerns related to his affiliation with the Ogboni Fraternity.

The actress said that the rejection left her with no choice but to bring her father’s body back home and placed in his bedroom.

She reflected on the circumstances leading to this decision, recalling a previous incident involving an armed robbery at their home, during which her father narrowly escaped.

When he died, the hospital refused to accept his body, citing worries about potential conflicts deriving from his membership in the Ogboni Fraternity.

“No mortuary or hospital could take him because he was a lodge member. The only thing we could do was bring him back home,” she said.

Despite the complications, she expressed gratitude for the support received from the Methodist community, acknowledging her father’s Methodist roots.

However, given the sensitive nature of the situation, the family opted to keep the presence of the body in the house confidential, fearing potential robbery attempts.

KanyiDaily recalls that Adetoun Onajobi claims that the late rapper, Mohbad, is currently at rest but harbors a desire to return to the world.
