It’s a lie; Naira Marley mistreated my son – Mohbad’s father tackles singer’s recent statement

Joseph Aloba, the father of the late singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, has once again spoken about the challenges surrounding his son’s career and tragic death.

In an interview with Sunday Scoop, Aloba insisted that Mohbad suffered mistreatment during his lifetime, countering the recent claims made by Naira Marley, his former record label boss.

Earlier in the week, the controversial artist released a video denying involvement in Mohbad’s struggles or death. According to Marley, his intention was only to guide the young singer, particularly after discovering that he had allegedly begun using hard substances.

“I went to see Naira Marley over some of the things Mohbad had said, and that was all. But later, a lot of other things happened that I personally witnessed. There were about three other people present at the time; two of them are still alive today. They were people working with Naira Marley, even though they were younger and still under him. One of them once came to me to report that Naira Marley was beating Mohbad.

When we went to see him to apologise, he wasn’t even speaking respectfully. People think I went there to collect money, but life is much more than just what I want to eat.”

Addressing claims that the late singer carried out financial dealings through an unfamiliar bank account, Aloba acknowledged that Naira Marley had previously expressed concern over the issue.

“Naira Marley complained to me that he (Mohbad) was collecting money with an account that is not his and that he (Naira Marley) had to force him to use his personal account. I also saw that he was sending me money from a strange account and I warned him that anything he wants to give me should come from his own account. That’s what I know about the account issue,” he stated.

Mohbad was using Wunmi’s mom’s account number to receive money – Naira Marley

Marlian Records boss, Naira Marley, has revealed new details about late singer Mohbad’s financial transactions during his time under the label, alleging that the artiste frequently used his partner’s mother’s account to receive payments.

Speaking in a recent interview, Naira Marley recounted how Mohbad first reached out to him on November 16, 2020, claiming he was receiving treatment for malaria at a hospital.

According to him, on December 21, 2020, Mohbad sent an account number with the name Adesanya Justina Olajumoke and insisted that payments should be made into it.

He further disclosed that on December 30, 2020, Mohbad expressed gratitude after receiving payments into the same account following his one-year anniversary as a Marlian Records artiste.

Again, on December 31, 2020, and January 25, 2021, Mohbad continued to direct him to send money to the same account, claiming it belonged to his mother.

However, Naira Marley said he became suspicious after realizing the name on the account did not match that of Mohbad’s mother, who is known as Abosede. He alleged that the account actually belonged to the mother of Mohbad’s partner, Wunmi.

He said …

“On November 16, 2020, he sent me a message that he was at the hospital treating malaria. Those people saying he is scared of the hospital can see this.

“On Dec 21, 2020, Mohbad sent me an account with the name: Adesanya Justina Olajumoke. He said that was his new account where money should be paid into.”

“I was like this is not your account but anyway I paid his money there. On Dec 30, 2020 he appreciated me after his one year anniversary of being my artiste.”

On Dec 31, 2020, he sent me the same Olajumoke account to pay money into and he still insisted it was his account. On Jan 25, 2021 he sent me that same Olajumoke account and said it was his mum’s account.”

“I knew that wasn’t his mum’s name.”It was Wunmi’s mother’s account. His mother’s name is Abosede. I was like what’s going on, I then called him over to my place and spoke to him.”

Naira Marley tells his side of story

Famous singer, Naira Marley finally opens up on Mohbad’s demise, as he recounts his side of things.

The Marlian Music executive revealed that at the time of Mohbad’s demise, he was out of the country, and it came as a shock to him when news of his death made headlines.

He remarked that he was saddened when people began to spin out different narratives about his death, despite the fact that he had no hand in it.

Naira Marley said …

“Someone among us said, Mohbad dead. I looked at him, I said, it’s a lie man, he wants to blow again. Exactly what I said, it’s a lie. I said it’s a lie, he wants to blow again. I didn’t even bother. Zeno looked at me straight away. I said, ah, … Like, people should know what they will be saying, you know. I’m like, ah, come on, man, people know we’re not in Nigeria, obviously. Oh, I just said people know we’re not in Nigeria. I went on Instagram. I can see InstaBlog saying Mohbad died of air infection. Okay, I’m like, air infection? All of us saying, was he dead? I’m like, they’re lying, man. Air infection, lying. How can you die of air infection? I’m still saying that. Twitter, boom, boom, boom. Nagamali, finally you’ve killed him. What? Is it a joke? Is it dead for you? But immediately I’m saying they started posting videos from the NDLEA incident. They started posting videos from the fight he had with, on the 4th of October 2022, he had with his manager. They started posting videos from there. Why? I don’t understand. Is that what killed him? You said he died on the… 12th of September, 2023.

You’re posting videos. So I know, I can see already that there’s someone paying the blogs to try changing the narrative from Haley. I’m like, what’s happening here? And the public, really, they’re falling for it. I wasn’t in the country. I can show you my passport stamp. And when I go back to Nigeria, everything, someone even saw us. After we, let me not jump the story. So, it’s still in the restaurant, they’re blaming me, everything. You know, jump in the car, let’s go away. We’re going to Amsterdam because I was planning to shoot the video. But now we can’t even shoot the video, but we still need to go. So we drove, went to Amsterdam.

Can’t even have fun anymore, can’t even shoot the video. Just chilling. Not even chilling, just… I was upset and sad. We didn’t even have time to mourn because of people blaming us for what we didn’t do. So I didn’t really get time to mourn him. Sometimes I tried to… Even when I mourned him, there was a message saying I killed him. I didn’t even get… I was sad. I was trying to mourn him. I didn’t get to mourn him properly. Um… Yeah, the person hold videos to try make you look like. But if we’re in a working country, they’re going to arrest everybody that was in the house with him. In the last 24 hours, 48 hours. They have no reason to arrest me, mate. Mate, I don’t understand. I was not in the country, I was out of the country.

You can see with the stamps, you can see with the videos, I have videos. I have lots of things, but that was it from then, it got serious. Samlari video came up, that video came up, that video Samlari and my body, my body. My first time seeing that video was when we all saw the video. I’m like, what the hell was this? But I wasn’t fast to judge like everybody.

I knew that video was not on that day because Samlagi was not in Nigeria too. Sam Larry traveled out of Nigeria. He was in Dubai, Kenya, Paris country. That’s what made me ask questions. Normally I was really angry like, ah, what? That’s what made me ask questions like, ah, Samlari, what’s up? He said nothing happened. He just saw him. He was explaining something. He said he saw him. Someone told him he was there. He went there. I don’t want to speak for him, but I’m just saying. He said he went there. And he saw him, he said he wants to collect his money. He said he tapped the chair. But I didn’t touch him. I looked at the video again. He didn’t touch him for real. But I can already see they’re posting my videos. So I’m thinking, why are they posting this video now? Did he die there? I mean, what? That’s not what killed him. So I have to ask questions. I’m like, okay, what happened?”
