A controversial singer, Azeez Fashola, aka Naira Marley; and his associate, Samson Balogun, aka Sam Larry, seem to have put their recent troubles behind them and have returned to the social scene.
Marley released two new songs— ‘Wahala’ and ‘OMO’— on December 29, 2023, while Larry was also spotted at an event earlier in the week, making merry.
Marley and Larry were arraigned at a Lagos magistrate court and later remanded at the Lagos State Police Command’s Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department, Panti, Yaba, on October 4, 2023, over their alleged involvement in the circumstances surrounding the death of a singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, aka Mohbad, who was hitherto signed to Marley’s Marlian Music.
After spending over a month in detention, the duo was released on November 17, 2023, after meeting their bail conditions.
As part of the bail conditions, the defendants were asked to surrender their passports and make weekly appearances at the SCID (Panti, Yaba,).
During the Yuletide, there were also other videos that showed Marley, Larry and another Marlian Music signee, Oniyide Azeez, aka Zinoleesky, having fun.
A video posted by Larry showed Marley dressed in a white T-shirt and jean trousers, while Zinoleesky was dressed in a yellow and green shirt. In the video, the trio could be seen played hailing themselves before getting into a car. Other videos that made the rounds on the Internet that day showed them giving food items to the needy.
Another video surfaced on the internet showing Naira Marley throwing money in the air for a group of people after leaving a mosque.
Meanwhile, Zinolesky also released a new song titled, ‘Sunny Ade’, on Friday, January 5, 2024.
