‘They threatened to harm him. Mohbad left Marlian records with zero Naira in his account – Mohbad’s wife
Wunmi Aloba, the wife of the late singer Mohbad has alleged that the singer was threatened and intimidated by Marlian music boys till he died.
Mohbad’s wife who disclosed this in continuation of her testimony at the inquest into his death in Lagos, said she was introduced to Naira Marley by Mohbad.
She also testified that by the time Mohbad was leaving Marlian Records, there was no money in his account.
She said: “One day, Mohbad told me that Naira Marley sent him a message on Instagram to come see him. I advised him to only feature Naira Marley on one song, and not sign a record deal with him but Mohbad said signing will help his career,” Wunmi testified.
Mohbad wanted to change his manager who is Naira Marley’s cousin, Tunde because he wasn’t doing anything. However, Naira Marley said they are the ones that will choose his manager.
“He started receiving different thr£ats from his oppressor and by 2022, when he left the label, he wasn’t stable again. He left with zero account. Bella Shmurda fed us for three months when the issue happened as things were hard,”
She noted that Mohbad tried to reach out to some artistes but they never responded to him except Olajide and Bella Shmurda.
She said his ‘oppressors’ paid anyone to h@rm him and he lived in f£ar till he di£d.
