“Naira Marley coordinated the attack” — Mohbad gives detailed account of alleged assault

Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba, better known by his stage name Mohbad, an indigenous singer, provides a thorough account of the assault that took place at Naira Marley’s home.

This comes after Naira Marley exposed Mohbad for beating the singer and labeled him a liar.

The aspiring composer claims that the altercation began when he requested new management in order to switch from his current one.

Mohbad said that he went to Naira Marley’s residence to settle the dispute after a contentious discussion on the Marlian’s WhatsApp group.

Unfortunately, Naira Marley and the two people who followed him ordered his beating.

Read his account below.

“The past two days’ events have permanently scarred my heart. I’ve only ever wanted to make amazing music and use it to support my family and myself.

I believed the Marlian Family would be a fantastic fit for me as a street artist. However, recent occurrences and certain truths that have come to light put my job, health, and peace of mind at jeopardy.

Because of these issues, I informed Naira Marley on the Marlian WhatsApp group chat of my intention to change my manager. This didn’t go down well with my current Manager Tunde (His Brother).

There were instant angry outbursts and protests from him in the chat.
I went to Naira Marley’s house with my Producer and my friend on the 4th of October, 2022, to have this conversation and reach a peaceful-
resolution.

We were in the studio, and Some of the guys who work with Naira- Sid, Shuddy, Seyi and others- were present, as well as Naira and Tunde. I noticed Tunde was quite agitated as we started the discussion.

In the middle of the conversation, Tunde became violent and-
attacked me. The guys I was with were also attacked, humiliated and stripped naked by Sid, Shuddy and Seyi and some of the other boys.

We were barely able to escape. 3 of us had to be checked into the hospital to get medical care for the injuries sustained during the assault.

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-
intoxicated as he is fully aware of the facts and circumstances surrounding this violent attack.

It is not the first time Naira has lied to push his own narrative, but it will hopefully be the last. I trust that soon, justice will be served.

Thank you all for your support.”
