Lagos Court Restrains Baba Mohbad, Yomi Fabiyi, Others From Speaking on Omowunmi and Son Liam

A Magistrate Court sitting in Ikeja, Lagos, has issued a restraining order against five individuals — Baba Mohbad, Bukky Jesse, Yomi Fabiyi, Larry Omodia, and Adewale Mariam — barring them from making any public comments or inciting actions concerning late singer Mohbad’s widow, Omowunmi Aloba, and their son, Liam. Eyes Of Lagos reports,
One-Year Restriction to Protect Wunmi and Liam

According to the court ruling, the individuals are prohibited from issuing statements, engaging in online discussions, or inciting the public against Omowunmi and her child for a period of one year. The directive also forbids them from subjecting Wunmi and Liam to bullying, harassment, or threats in any form.

This legal intervention follows ongoing disputes and heated controversies surrounding the late singer’s family since his passing. The court emphasized that the order is necessary to protect the privacy, dignity, and emotional well-being of the mother and child while preventing further escalation of public harassment.
Why the Court Took Action

The judge highlighted that excessive public commentary and online debates had the potential to expose Omowunmi and Liam to further emotional distress. By silencing individuals who have been outspoken on the matter, the court aims to reduce misinformation, maintain public order, and protect the family from defamatory narratives.
Public Reactions Online

The ruling has sparked intense reactions across Nigerian social media.

Supporters believe the restraining order is a much-needed measure to safeguard the late Mohbad’s immediate family from harassment.

Critics, however, argue that such restrictions may limit freedom of speech and set a precedent for silencing public opinion.

The debate highlights the delicate balance between protecting vulnerable individuals and upholding constitutional rights in Nigeria’s evolving digital age.
What This Means Going Forward

With this ruling, Omowunmi and Liam are legally shielded from negative public statements by the named parties until at least late 2026. Any violation of the order could result in contempt charges or additional penalties.

The case also sets a noteworthy example of how Nigerian courts are increasingly addressing issues of online bullying, harassment, and defamation in high-profile matters.
