Popular Rapper, Naira Marley has claimed that late musician and former signee, Mohbad, had once attempted suicide due to family issues.
Mohbad died on September 12, 2023 at the age of 27.
Naira Marley alongside his ‘Marlian’ crew are being accused of having an involvement in his mysterious death.
The police have conducted a post mortem examination on his body and Nigerians now await the result.
However, the singer and label boss has continued his stance of not having a hand in Mohbad’s passing.
Naira Marley, while speaking with Reno Omokri on Wednesday, explained that he had a recorded conversation with Mohbad, where he was begging the late singer not to commit suicide.
“There’s some other time when I was in America and his girl called me and said he locked himself in a toilet and wanted to kill himself and I called him and kind of recorded the conversation asking him ‘why do you want to kill yourself?
“If your family is stressing you out, just tell them to go.’ ‘You’re a king, chill and do whatever you wanna do. Don’t kill yourself.
“If you kill yourself now what do you want people to say? You just made a video not long ago saying if you die they should hold Naira Marley?
“He locked himself in a room and this was after he made the video that I wanted to kill him. So I was so concerned”.
