Mohbad, Naira Marley’s fight for shame not over
Mohbad, a popular street-hop singer and Marlian Records act, is still upset about the recent assault on him at Naira Marley’s house in Lagos by his label mates.
Mohbad claimed in a video posted to his Twitter account earlier this week that he was assaulted by the Marlian crew for daring to demand that his manager be replaced.
But Naira Marley has since dismissed Mohbad’s claims in a viral video he also shared on Instagram.
According to him, the street pop singer arrived his Marley house thoroughly intoxicated from an unidentifiable stimulant which made him aggressive.
However, reliving memories of the sad incident in several tweets, Mohbad said “ It’s not the first time Naira Marley has lied to push his own narrative, but it will hopefully be the last.”
The badly wounded singer admitted that the events of the past days have left indelible scars in his heart. “I have always just wanted to create good music and to provide for my family and myself through my music. As an Artiste from the street, I thought the Marlian Family would be a good place for me,” he tweeted
Revealing what led to the altercation,Mohbad explained that recent events and certain truths which threaten his peace, health and career, however, came to light, prompting him to inform Naira Marley on the Marlian WhatsApp platform of his intention to change his manager. A request that didn’t go down well with the Marlians, as they attacked him, inflicting injuries on all parts of his body as captured in the viral video he shared on Twitter.

I’m at the hospital for a CT Scan for head impact and chest X-ray as a result of the assault.
I had the meeting clearheaded and without any drug influence too.

Everything he said on the live video is a blatant lie.
This isn’t the first time. The last video was made out to look like I was high or overreacting.
My life is being severely threatened.— Mohbad Imolè (@iammohbad_) October 5, 2022
I’m not intoxicated but I’ve just been diagnosed as an emergency hypertensive patient.
I’m not on drugs or drinks and my life is at stake. I’m still getting threats.

I’ve been admitted as an emergency hypertensive patient but I’ll be back later to say my own bit of the situation.
Quick flashback to February 24th this year when this happened and they said I was intoxicated.

I have decided to speak no further on this, however, and will let this matter be handled going forward by my representatives. I will focus on getting back my full strength and sound health so that I can continue to tell my story through my music.

Naira Marley was fully present throughout this event, and in fact, coordinated some of the attack as he instructed the boys to beat us up. Some of this was captured on video. It is therefore disrespectful for Naira Marley to insinuate that I started the attack because I was-

Thank you all for your support.

It is not the first time Naira has lied to push his own narrative, but it will hopefully be the last.

The events of the last two days have left indelible scars in my heart.
I have always just wanted to create good music and to provide for my family and myself through my music. As an Artiste from the street, I thought the Marlian Family would be a good place for me.
