Content creator and comedian Ojesanmi Afeez, also known as Oloba Salo, has sparked varied reactions with his recent remarks about Street-pop artist Naira Marley and his ex-signee Mohbad.
In a popular video, Salo criticized Naira Marley, accusing him of being a killer. He mentioned that the spirit of the late singer Mohbad had not found peace before Naira Marley resumed his music career.
Salo stated in the video that Naira Marley would not be remembered positively in the Nigerian music industry due to his actions towards Mohbad.
The content creator expressed sadness that it is nearly a year since Mohbad’s passed away, and his body is still in a morgue.
Oloba Salo stated that if Naira Marley had acted kindly, Mohbad would have already been laid to rest.
The TikToker also pointed out that shortly after Mohbad’s passing, Naira Marley returned to the studio to make music instead of taking time to grieve for his former artist.
