Spending, a very close friend of the late Nigerian singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, has finally addressed and firmly denied the widespread rumours claiming he is the biological father of Mohbad’s son, Liam Aloba.
These rumours started circulating after a controversial post from a blogger on social media went viral, suggesting that Liam shares a striking facial resemblance to Spending. The claims rapidly gained traction online, sparking heated discussions and fueling conspiracy theories among fans and netizens who have long been debating the true paternity of Liam ever since Mohbad's sudden death in 2023.
In reaction to these growing allegations, Spending took to his Instagram story to firmly set the record straight. He expressed his frustration and disappointment over what he described as “baseless and damaging narratives” that not only tarnish his image but also disrespect the memory of his late friend Mohbad.
“I’ve been seeing several bloggers and social media users insinuating that I am Liam’s father,” Spending wrote. “This is not a joke for real!! To set the record straight once and for all, I am not his father and I never had any romantic or affectionate relationship with his mother at any point in time. Y’all need to stop spreading these false narratives and focus on the truth.”
Spending went on to emphasize his willingness to clear his name completely, stating that he is fully open to undergoing a DNA test to finally put an end to the speculations and restore peace to all parties involved. “I’m happy to have a DNA done if required,” he boldly added, reinforcing his innocence and transparency regarding the matter.
Since Mohbad’s passing in 2023, there have been persistent calls for a DNA test to confirm Liam’s paternity, with different individuals and groups weighing in on the issue. This latest round of rumours has only reignited the ongoing controversy and public curiosity surrounding the child’s biological father.
Many fans and observers have praised Spending for coming forward to clarify his stance, commending his courage and openness to undergo a DNA test to protect his integrity and respect the legacy of his late friend Mohbad. Others, however, have called for restraint and caution, urging the public to avoid jumping to conclusions without concrete evidence.
As the story continues to unfold, all eyes remain on the Aloba family and close associates of Mohbad, as many await a definitive resolution to the paternity question that has captured the attention of countless Nigerians and fans around the world.
