Why police is investigating Naira Marley over Mohbad's death
Since the death of Ilerioluwa Aloba, also known as Mohbad, over alleged bullying of the late singer, many have called for the arrest of Naira Marley and his ally, Sam Larry.
Although they both denied allegations that they were responsible for the singer's death, several Nigerians have asked police to investigate them due to their past clash with the singer.
Mohbad left Marlian Records, owned by Naira Marley, on a controversial note in 2022.
On their return to Nigeria, Naira Marley and Sam Larry were arrested by the Lagos State police command. At the same time, the security agencies have said they would assist in their investigation concerning Mohbad's death.
