Naira Marley, his boys bullied Mohbad before his death, Wife recounts

Omowunmi Aloba, the wife of late Nigerian singer Mohbad recounted how Naira Marley and his boys bullied Mohbad, even before his death.

This revelation was revealed by the late singer’s wife while testifying at the Lagos Coroner’s inquest on November 7th, 2023.

She claims that once Mohbad left the Marlian Records label, Naira Marley and his crew bullied him anywhere they saw him.

She further stated that while Mohbad was at Marlian Records, his manager constantly offered his shows to other artists.

She went on to say that before Mohbad left Marlian Record’s label, as Naira refused to promote his songs while he promoted those of other artists, leaving him upset and depressed, as a result, leaving the label.

Omowunmi went on to say that Mohbad left the record company with zero naira in his bank account, which made things difficult for them, adding that it was Bella Shmurda who came through for them during a difficult period when they had nothing.

She said, ”After Mohbad left The Marlian’s record label, Naira Marley and his boys were always bullying him everywhere. They already killed him before his death. He was always living in fear. When Moh was with them, he complained that his manager was always giving his shows out to other artists. Naira refused to promote all the songs Moh was releasing, yet he was promoting other artists’s songs. MOH complained to Naira about this, but Naira still refused to promote his songs.

He became depressed because of this. He told Naira that he was just burying his talent and that why were his own songs not being promoted by the label. This really affected Moh a lot, and he had emotional trauma.

This was the major reason why he left the label. When he left the label, he had zero naira in his bank account. Things were so tough and rough for us. It was Bella Shmurda that fed and housed us. We had nothing if not for Bella that came to our rescue……”
