Why Naira Marley shouldn’t be blamed for Mohbad’s death – Fela’s daughter slams Iyabo Ojo, others

• One of Fela’s daughters has spoken up to those blaming Naira Marley for being responsible for the death of Mohbad.
• She said if Naira Marley is to be blamed for the singer’s death, then so should all those who knew he was being bullied, but stood by to watch, and only voiced out after his death.
• Motunrayo claimed it’s possible Naira Marley like many others didn’t want to be involved in what was going on between Sam Larry and Mohbad.

Motunrayo Anukulapo-Kuti, daughter of Afrobeat legend Fela, has said that Marlian boss, Naira Marley should not be blamed for the death of his former associate, Mohbad.

Motunrayo said this via Instagram while addressing actress, Iyabo Ojo who in an Instagram live session with Daddy Freeze, accused Naira Marley of keeping silent while Sam Larry allegedly bullied Mohbad. Iyabo’s words:

“When Sam Larry was bullying Mohbad, what did Naira Marley do? Why didn’t you come out to say ‘this boy is my boy, why are you bullying him up and down, why did he keep silent?’ Was it right the way they were beating him up and down, torturing him,”

Responding to the accusation, Motunrayo challenged Iyabo Ojo, Daddy Freeze and another lady who joined the live session, saying that they all kept quiet while Mohbad was being bullied. She said:

“When Mohbad was being bullied, you all in this video what did u people do about it? What did ur talking do about it . But he died now and una wan come out come talk. Abegi jooo.”

Speaking further, Motunrayo stated that no one, including Naira Marley, should be blamed for Mohbad’s death she added:

“Nobody is to blame for his death and definitely no NM. Why are they all coming out to point fingers? Everyone knew he was being bullied and no one did anything about it. Nothing like why NM. If they want to push blame every one of these celebrities are (sic) to blame cause they had the platform but they didn’t do shiiii.”

“He probably didn’t want to get involved finish. A man decides what he wants or not want to be involved with. Which one is why didn’t he say something? Is it everyone in the industry you people come out to support or defend???.”

Mohbad died under controversial circumstances on September 12. He was aged 27.
