The Justice For Mohbad Movement Group (JMMG) a group of prominent Nigerian citizens is seeking redress against social media bullying of Wunmi and Liam Aloba- the Wife and son of the deceased star musician.
The group also issued ultimatum to those responsible for spreading false information and engaging in cyberbullying and mandate them to retract your statements from their social media handles within the next 24 hours.
Koleosho Ibrahim, the Director of Communications of the group in a statement said ” it is disheartening to witness individuals, hidden behind the veil of online anonymity, attacking a family that is already enduring the profound agony of losing a loved one (Mohbad Imole) under mysterious circumstances.
“The cyberbullying and false statements circulating on social media not only perpetuate the suffering of the innocent but also contribute to a toxic culture that has far-reaching consequences.I implore those who are engaging in these harmful activities to pause and reflect on the gravity of their actions.”
” Cyberbullying is not just a matter of online words; it has real-life repercussions which includes fine and jail terms. The pain inflicted on the minor and his mother is palpable, and their wounds are still fresh. It is our moral responsibility as a society to uplift and support those in distress, not to exacerbate their suffering. Let us allow the Police and the Courtroom do their jobs rather than we turning our social media handles to a courthouse of jury, judge, bailiff and criminal. Justice is what we crave for”
On the issue of DNA test for Liam, Koleoso said ” in my mind the paternity of the disputed has not been determined, anybody can be awarded custody of a child but the most important thing is that if a party is claiming paternity it is trite that a court of Law should be allowed to determine same on proof of evidence relating to paternity, which could only be done by referral for a DNA test of the parties involved. After such test the court has a duty to declare the actual father of the child in dispute, in consonance with the evidence at its disposal.”
He however urge nigerians to be mindful of the impact of their words and actions. Together, we can create a digital world that is characterized by kindness, empathy, and support.
