Court clears Naira Marley, Sam Larry, Primeboy of complicity in Mohbad’s death
  • Court held that based on the police investigation and other attached evidence, the four men had no hand in the death of Mohbad

A Magistrate Court sitting in the Sabo area of Yaba, Lagos State, on Tuesday, cleared singer Azeez Fashola, popularly known as Naira Marley, and three others of any involvement in the controversial death of fellow singer Aloba Oladimeji Ileri-Oluwa,, also known as Mohbad.

Magistrate Ejiro Kubenje, who gave the verdict based on the legal advice issued by the Lagos State Directorate of Public Prosecution (DPP), also absolved and acquitted music promoter Samson Balogun Eletu, known as Sam Larry, as well as Owodunni Ibrahim, known as Primeboy, and Mohbad’s former manager, Opere Babatunde

The court held in a ruling that based on the police investigation and other attached evidence, the four men had no hand in the death of Mohbad and so had no case to answer.

However, the DPP’s advice indicted the auxiliary nurse who treated Mohbad, Feyisayo Ogedengbe, along with one of Mohbad’s friends, Ayobami Sadiq.
