Recall that Mohbad had declared that Naira Marley’s Marlian group should be held responsible for his death under any circumstances.
Following his untimely death on September 12, the head of the Marlian Record was accused of being involved in his passing.
In reaction to this, Naira Marley said in an interview with Reno Omokri that he saw the young musician after he shot the video and had proof of his repentance to him.
He added that he was not in the country at the time of Mohbad’s death and it was impossible for him to be responsible for his death.
He said,
“Till today I don’t understand. I tried to get him help when he went out like that. I wasn’t even in the country when he made that video.
I was out of the country. I’m sure it was during the NDLEA [arrest that he made the video]. Looking at the video again, I was getting information from everybody that was there because like I said, I wasn’t in the country.
I kind of sent someone to the NDLEA before I got back. When I got back the next day, they said Mohbad was not there. They said Mohbad wasn’t among the people arrested.
I didn’t bail Mohbad out anyway. It’s only Zino. So it was that paranoia…Zino was still in the NDLEA when he [Mohbad] made that video. I wasn’t around.
I was outside Nigeria when he made that video saying if he dies they should hold Naira Marley and the Malians. So when I got back I asked him. When I got back, I met him.
I spoke to trying to find out what was wrong but he said he didn’t understand and apologized. Yes. He apologized. I have a video on that.”
