In a surprising twist, Nigerian music sensation Naira Marley and his aide, Sam Larry, have reportedly been arrested.

This development stems from the highly publicized incident involving the assault on fellow artist Mohbad, which has sent shockwaves throughout the entertainment industry and led to calls for justice.

The controversy erupted when a video depicting the late Mohbad being harassed by Naira Marley’s aide, Sam Larry, surfaced online.

The viral footage captured the attention of fans and the public, showing Mohbad, who was in a wheelchair being pushed by an elderly woman, accompanied by fellow artist Zlatan. In the unsettling clip, Sam Larry struck Mohbad from behind before Zlatan intervened.

The incident drew immediate outrage from fans and supporters of the late singer, who demanded accountability and justice.

Many expressed their deep disappointment in the actions of Naira Marley’s camp, calling for a thorough investigation into the assault and its circumstances. Calls to boycott Naira Marley’s songs also gained momentum as fans sought to take a stand against such behavior within the industry.

Initially, Sam Larry attempted to restrict comments on his Instagram page, likely in response to the mounting criticism. However, this did not stop netizens from voicing their condemnation of his actions. Eventually, Sam Larry deactivated his social media accounts, further intensifying the public’s scrutiny.

Naira Marley on the other hand had continued to post on his snap chat with netizens expressing their shock at how unbothered he is in the face of such controversy. Let’s recall that Naira Marley had posted a heart break 💔 emoji when the news of Mohbad’s passing has surfaced. That is the only reaction he has given so far.

Naira Marley and Sam Larry’s reported arrest will revolve round the physical assault meted out on Mohbad when he was alive and it’s not in direct conjunction with his passing. Netizens are glad that the accountability police have started to make some progress.
