Renowned street singer, Naira Marley, has ignited a flurry of questions and stirred online discussions with his inquiries into the tragic passing of his former signee, Mohbad.
Just hours ago, Naira Marley issued his first official statement on Mohbad’s death, emphasizing the absence of any animosity between them.
Turning to his Instagram story, Naira Marley has now called for a comprehensive investigation into Mohbad’s demise. He posed a series of questions, including inquiries about Mohbad’s whereabouts, his companions, the attending nurse, the results of an autopsy, and the hasty burial arrangements. Naira Marley also questioned who paid the blog Instablog9ja to initially report that Mohbad had died from an ear infection.
Expressing his grief and concern, Naira Marley stated, “Hey guys, I’ve been shattered, don’t even know what to type since. I’ve been so hurt, walahi. But guys, let’s do this for Mohbad, I know the internet can.” He urged for transparency and justice in Mohbad’s case.
Naira Marley highlighted the need to investigate the circumstances surrounding Mohbad’s passing, emphasizing that “Imole” (Mohbad’s nickname) deserves a dignified burial and justice.
These questions raised by Naira Marley have prompted various reactions from netizens, some of whom have criticized him, while others have offered answers and opinions.
It’s worth noting that Mohbad’s tragic death was marred by a viral video showing him being harassed by Naira Marley’s aide, Sam Larry, while he was shooting a music video with Zlatan. This incident led to public outrage, with demands for an explanation for the brutality. Sam Larry initially restricted his comment section and later deactivated his Instagram page in response to the backlash. Additionally, there were calls to ban Naira Marley’s music on various platforms, and a petition to ban Naira Marley’s music label garnered over 50,000 signatures.
