The Lagos state government has promised to assist the family of Mohbad.
Born Ilerioluwa Aloba, the fast-rising singer died last Tuesday and was buried on Wednesday.
The circumstance surrounding his death has continued to stir up controversies on social media.
Before his demise, Mohbad had a child with Omowumi, his baby mama.
