In a bombshell revelation that could reignite the ongoing controversy surrounding the untimely death of rising Nigerian star Mohbad, social media activist VeryDarkMan has publicly disclosed that rapper Naira Marley owed his late signee a substantial sum of money.
The shocking claim has stirred widespread debate, with fans and critics alike questioning the events leading up to Mohbad’s tragic death in September 2023. Allegedly, the issue of financial disputes and a toxic work environment within Naira Marley’s Marlian Records may have played a significant role in the fallout between the two artists, with some even hinting at a possible link to Mohbad’s untimely demise.
The Financial Fallout That Shaped the Tragedy
According to VeryDarkMan, who has been an outspoken critic of Naira Marley since Mohbad’s death, the rapper openly admitted to owing the late artist a considerable amount of money. VeryDarkMan, in an emotional video shared widely on social media, recounted a conversation he had with Naira Marley about the debt and the circumstances surrounding their falling out.
“I asked Naira Marley why he’s keeping quiet about the whole situation, especially when he clearly owed Mohbad a significant sum,” VeryDarkMan said, his voice filled with frustration. “He admitted it to me, telling me exactly how much he owed the boy. It wasn’t a small amount of money. That’s something the public doesn’t know yet.”
According to the activist, Naira Marley’s reluctance to publicly address the financial dispute and explain his side of the story only fueled speculation about his role in the events that unfolded between him and Mohbad. “I suggested that he come out and clarify the situation to the public, provide evidence of their business relationship, but he refused. He said, ‘God will fight my battles,’” VeryDarkMan revealed.
Unraveling the Conflict: A Breakdown of the Troubling Relationship
The financial woes between Naira Marley and Mohbad are believed to have begun when the late artist reportedly sought to change the management his label had assigned to him. This move, which went against the terms of his contract, is said to have caused a rift between the two, setting the stage for a deeper conflict that may have escalated into something far darker.
“The problem started when Mohbad started making moves outside the scope of his contract with the label,” VeryDarkMan explained. “He wanted to have more control over his career and requested a change in management, which didn’t sit well with Naira Marley. That’s when things began to fall apart.”
The idea of a troubled working relationship between the two was not entirely new. For months, fans of Mohbad had raised concerns about his treatment under Naira Marley’s label, citing allegations of exploitation and emotional abuse. Mohbad’s departure from the label only added fuel to the fire, and the rapper’s refusal to publicly address the fallout has only intensified speculation about his involvement in the artist’s tragic end.
The Fans Speak Out: A Tale of Betrayal and Grief
Since Mohbad’s death, his fans have been vocal in their accusations against Naira Marley, suggesting that the rapper may have been complicit in his former signee’s untimely demise. Many have pointed to the bitter relationship between the two as a possible cause of Mohbad’s distress, which reportedly contributed to his deteriorating mental health in the months leading up to his passing.
The intense backlash against Naira Marley following Mohbad’s passing has been accompanied by calls for transparency and accountability. Many believe that Naira Marley owes Mohbad’s family and his fans an explanation, not only about the financial matters but also about the mysterious circumstances surrounding Mohbad’s sudden death.
The Role of God: A Convenient Escape?
Naira Marley’s choice to deflect blame and say that “God will fight his battles” has drawn sharp criticism, with many questioning his sincerity. In the world of Nigerian celebrity culture, it is common for public figures to invoke divine intervention as a way of avoiding accountability for their actions. Critics argue that this statement was merely a convenient escape from the harsh reality of the allegations against him.
Although Naira Marley has remained tight-lipped since the allegations surfaced, the rapper’s followers continue to support him, arguing that there is no evidence linking him to Mohbad’s death. However, as the controversy continues to unravel, it’s clear that the public’s trust in the Marlian Records boss is steadily eroding.
The Call for Justice: Fans Demand Accountability
In the wake of these new revelations, many fans of Mohbad are rallying for justice. They are calling on the Nigerian authorities to investigate the financial and emotional toll that Mohbad’s association with Naira Marley may have caused him, as well as the possible link between the rapper’s actions and his tragic demise.
