At the 17th Headies Awards in Lagos, the late Afrobeat singer Mohbad was honoured with a moving tribute that left many in deep reflection.

The emotional tribute captured the essence of Mohbad’s influence, describing him as a star whose spirit and voice could never be forgotten. In a touching closing message, the organisers urged the late singer to “rest in power,” affirming that his light would continue to shine.

Part of the tribute message read:
“Some voices are too powerful to be forgotten, some spirits shine so bright they leave a mark that cannot be erased. Mohbad was one of those stars. From the streets of Lagos to the heart of millions, Mohbad’s music was more than sound; it was a movement… Rest in peace, Mohbad, your light will never fade.”

The tribute served as one of the night’s most touching moments, reminding the audience of Mohbad’s lasting legacy in the Nigerian music scene.
