Musician Naira Marley arrested over MohBad’s death.

Nigerian police have arrested singer-songwriter Naira Marley in connection with the death of Afrobeats star MohBad.

Lagos police spokesman Benjamin Hundeyin said Marley was being detained “for interviews and other investigative activities”.

”Azeez Fashola aka Naira Marley has been taken into custody for interrogation and other investigation activities… #justice4Mohbad #justiceforMohbad” he wrote.

Marley shared on the X that he was assisting the authorities in the investigation into MohBad’s death and was “meeting with the police in the hope that the truth will be revealed and justice will be served”.

MohBad died mysteriously in a Lagos hospital on September 12 and was hastily buried by his family.

The 27-year-old star’s death sparked protests and calls for an investigation from his fans, which led to police exhuming his body for an investigation.

Fans directed their anger at Marley, who had signed MohBad under his Marlian Records music label.

MohBad left the label last year, after falling out with Marley.

Following his death, several videos of MohBad complaining about his relationship with Marlian Records resurfaced.
