After two years of being cancelled by the court of public opinion, Naira Marley has now posted a tell-all video to explain his side of the controversy surrounding Mohbad’s untimely demise and the backlash he received since.
Recounting the tragic day in September 2023, he stated that he was taken by shock and disbelief when he heard the sad news.
Someone among us said Mohbad is dead and I thought they were lying. I thought it was a rouse to blow him up again. I was like, ‘People should be careful what they say. I saw reports saying that he died of an ear infection and I immediately felt they were lying.
The singer explained that despite not being in Nigeria at the time of Mohbad’s death, he was immediately blamed online.
Next thing I knew, I was trending on Twitter and people started posting videos from the NDLEA issue that year. People posted old videos of the fight he had in 2022 with his manager.I wasn’t in the country, how can I be blamed? I can show you my passport stamped and when I came back to Nigeria. People started blaming me I didn’t even have time to mourn him properly.
