Nigerian singer and Marlian Music boss, Naira Marley, is trending once again as his name resurfaces in conversations tied to the legacy of late singer Mohbad. The music star, who has faced intense criticism since Mohbad’s tragic death in September 2023, recently released a new video statement addressing issues around the royalties of the deceased singer and clarifying his side of the story.
In the video, Marley explained that Mohbad continued to receive his royalties from Marlian Music, dismissing claims that the label had withheld payments from the late artist. He emphasized that proper financial processes were followed and that all dues were paid directly to Mohbad before his passing. According to Marley, “every artiste deserves to enjoy the fruit of their work,” and he insisted that Mohbad was no exception.

He argued that authorities should have extended their investigation to everyone who spent time with Mohbad in the 24 hours before his demise. “If justice must be served, everyone who was around him in those final hours should have been arrested and questioned,” Marley said in his statement.
