Naira Marley clarified that they were in the process of resolving their issues before MohBad’s untimely demise on September 12 at the age of 27.
MohBad, a former member of the Marlian Music record label, had alleged in multiple videos that he was subjected to assaults by groups allegedly sent by his former boss Naira Marley and Naira Marley’s associate, Samson Eletu, also known as Sam Larry.
In response to these accusations, Naira Marley released a statement on his Instagram page, stating that while they did have disagreements during their collaboration, it never escalated to the level that some are portraying.
Naira Marley firmly asserted that he had no involvement in Ilerioluwa’s death, either directly or indirectly.
He emphasized that conflicts within the industry, like in any other field, are not uncommon, even among close associates.
Despite their differences, they were in the process of legally resolving their business dispute before MohBad’s passing.
