Singer Naira Marley has broken his silence after a court cleared him and Sam Larry of any involvement in the d£ath of fellow artist Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad.
The duo had been widely accused of bullying and assaulting Mohbad before his tragic passing, with viral videos resurfacing after his d£ath that fueled public outrage. However, the court ruled that Naira Marley (Abdulazeez Fashola), Sam Larry (Samson Balogun), and PrimeBoy had no hand in Mohbad’s demise.
Following the ruling, Naira Marley took to Instagram to share his reaction, reflecting on the accusations and his ordeal.
“I never thought silence could be so loud. I never thought someone I called my brother, someone I protected, would leave this world with my name on his shadow.”
He further states that, “I have carried this weight, this pain, this shame that was never mine to bear. Mistakes were made, but they were business—never war.”
“I made peace with Mohbad. We understood each other beyond the noise, beyond the misunderstandings. And you know this.”
The singer also expressed frustration at being accused while, according to him, the real truth was withheld.
“You let them tear me apart. You let them call me a killer while you sat there, knowing the truth. Now you tell the story?”
He emphasized that he stood before the justice system, spent time in jail, and faced the accusations head-on, rather than fleeing, and stated that the truth will eventually prevail.
“I have been broken, but I am not destroyed. And when the truth finally speaks, I pray your heart is strong enough to bear it.”
