Naira Marley speaks on MohBad’s death; says the late singer’s demise was premeditated (video)
Singer, Naira Marley has addressed claims linking him to the death of his former signee, MohBad. In a video shared online, Naira stated that the last time he saw MohBad was on October 4, 2022, after an altercation between the singer and his then-manager. According to him, despite previous issues – including MohBad’s clash with NDLEA, an attempted suicide, a legal dispute with his distributor, and his exit from Marlian Music – MohBad was still considering an apology before his passing.
On learning of MohBad’s death on September 12, 2023, Naira Marley said he was outside Nigeria, first in Amsterdam and later linking up with Zinoleesky in Montenegro for a planned video shoot. He added that he had passport stamps, videos, and witnesses to confirm his absence from the country at the time. Reacting to viral clips, including the video of Sam Larry confronting MohBad on set, Marley said the first time he saw the footage was online like everyone else, but insisted it was not recorded on the day MohBad died. He also claimed Zlatan had privately confirmed that nothing violent happened at that shoot.
Marley alleged that some blogs were paid to circulate old clips in order to change the narrative around MohBad’s death, while stressing that he was unfairly blamed and never got the chance to mourn properly. On MohBad’s struggles, Marley referenced a leaked voice note where the late singer expressed paranoia and fear after past incidents. MohBad’s partner also admitted he battled depression and had once been taken to a psychiatric hospital, noting that he became “a shadow of himself” after the NDLEA raid.
Marley denied ever bullying MohBad or sending anyone to harass him. He also dismissed a viral Snapchat clip of him dancing shortly after MohBad’s death, insisting it was an old video used to frame him.
