For several days, the internet has been flooded with photos and videos of Naira Marley and his record label signee, Mohbad. The “Soapy” singer is now being accused of drug trafficking.
According to reports, Mohbad, whose real name is Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, was accused and explained why Naira Marley and his gang attacked him.
Mohbad, who is signed to Marlian Records, is seen in the video with visible bruises and dressed in a white singlet.
He claimed he was beaten because he asked for a different manager.
“Just because I want to change my manager, who is their brother, see what they did to me at Marlian House,” he tweeted. I’m not high oo because that’s what Dey always says to calm things down. Please help me, I’m dying inside.”
A similar incident occurred earlier this year, but it was quickly squashed.
Naira Marley, the owner of Marlian Records, responded to the accusation by calling the incident a “family affair.” In an Instagram live video response to the situation, the singer claimed that Mohbad was probably “high” (drunk) when making the complaint.
“Clearly, he (Mohbad) is not in his right mind.” He is clearly not in the right frame of mind. “Because why would I touch Mohbad or allow anyone else to touch Mohbad?” he asked.
“Mohbad has a history of getting intoxicated, which affects his emotions and actions,” Naira Marley wrote on his Twitter handle. #ImNotPerfect. All issues, however, would be resolved amicably within the record label.”
“I need my bro Mohbad to come on live so you guys can see I have no reason to lie on him,” he said in another tweet.
