The lawyer for Afeez Fashola, aka Naira Marley, has refuted claims that the Marlians record label owner was involved in the death of his former signee, Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad.
The late Mohbad died on September 12 amidst ambiguous circumstances which have been followed up by a series of police investigations and a coroner inquest.
However, Naira Marley’s lawyer, Olalekan Ojo, speaking in a video chat with Daddy Freeze, which was seen by PUNCH Online on Sunday, stated that what transpired in a viral video in which controversial Lagos socialite, Balogun Eletu, aka Sam Larry, tried to bully Mohbad but was stopped by Zlatan during a video shoot was misinterpreted by the public.
Ojo said, ‘’As for Naira Marley, I believe very strongly that no matter how hard you look, you will not find a single incident where Naira Marley bullied him.”
He said Larry, Mohbad, and Zlatan settled their issue and ate “Amala together after the incident.”
Ojo added that there is a longer version of the video which showed the trio together
He recalled, “Sometimes in June 2023, he (Sam Larry) came to Elegushi beach and heard some musicians were shooting a musical video, so he wanted to see who they were. Remember that in that video, he said so it’s even you.
“That video is a nine-second video and it will interest you to know that there is a longer version showing these guys eating Amala together after the incident,” he noted.
