There are preponderance of evidence linking both Naira Marley and SamLarry to the allegation of threat to life, Cyberstalking, and sundry crimes committed against Mohbad in his life time- Police

The Lagos police authorities say there are pieces of evidence linking Naira Marley and Sam Larry with cyberbullying, physical abuse, a threat to life, and assault against 27-year-old singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba aka Mohbad who died in questionable circumstances on September 12, 2023.

 While videos of the singer alleging being bullied and assault resurfaced after his demise, many accused Naira Marley (Abdulazeez Fashola) and Sam Larry (Samson Balogun) of being complicit, a claim the duo have denied.

However, at the press briefing today October 6, the Lagos State Police Commissioner Idowu Owohunwa said there is evidence linking Naira Marley and Sam Larry of assault against Mohbad.

“Many of the 26 witnesses alleged that the deceased was indeed bullied and assaulted several times by Naira Marley and SamLarry and their gangs. It was affirmed that in 2019, the deceased was alleged signed by Naira Marley into his record Label known as Marlian Music limited. Due to a disagreement in terms of the contract, the deceased pressed for the revocation of his contractual relationship with Marlian music while also pushing to relieve his then manager who was a brother to Naira Marley. It was alleged that these moves irked the suspects who in consequence allegedly severally conspired, bullied and assaulted the deceased. It was also asserted by some witnesses with corrborative video evidence that before his demise, Mohbad had raised alarm that his life was being threatened, that he was being bullied and assaulted by by Naira Marley and Sam Larry.”

“Upon their arrest, Naira Marley and SamLarry denied allegations of complicity in the death of Mohbad by pleading an alibi that they were both out of the country when the incident occurred and were not in any manner involved in the chain of events that occasioned his eventual death between 10-12 September 2023. However, there are preponderance of evidence, linking both Naira Marley and SamLarry to the allegation of threat to life, Cyberstalking, and sundry crimes committed against Mohbad in his life time and they are being so held liable.”
