Speaking in a video sighted by YEN.com.gh, Prime Boy emphatically stated that his friend has not been buried in the three years since he passed away, and the demonstration was intended to demand justice for him.
According to him, Mohbad remained in the mortuary while his family was going about enjoying their lives.
He claimed some loved ones came together and donated an undisclosed amount of money for the singer's burial, but his family allegedly spent the money on themselves.
He further demanded justice for the singer, calling on his family and the government of Nigeria to take the right step to ensure the right thing is done.
“Please, you people should do the right thing,” he said.

How did Nigerian singer Mohbad die?
On September 12, 2023, the Nigerian music industry was thrown into a state of mourning after news broke that the singer had passed away.
He died at the age of just 27, leaving behind his wife and son.
Wunni, the singer's wife, opened up on an Instagram post on what led to his death, detailing how he struggled before he ultimately succumbed.
"He struggled until death, too many pains, threatening, he has always lived with fear, continuous fights everywhere he goes, too, he has never been happy for a whole day," she said.
Mohbad's widow later reacted to reports of him battling mental issues, saying:
"He was called a junkie, a mad person with mental issues, so that the public would have another view about him. He's dead; at least you all won, take your trophy. Y'all made me a widow at 24 years."
The late Mohbad's father also broke his silence at the time, alleging that the singer did not die a natural death.
