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

Motunrayo Anukulapo-Kuti, Fela’s daughter, has stated that Marlian boss Naira Marley should not be held responsible for the death of his former associate, Mohbad.

Motunrayo stated this on Instagram while addressing actress Iyabo Ojo, who accused Naira Marley of remaining silent while Sam Larry allegedly bullied Mohbad during an Instagram live session with Daddy Freeze. In the words of Iyabo:

“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,”

Motunrayo responded to the accusation by challenging Iyabo Ojo, Daddy Freeze, and another lady who joined the live session, claiming that they all remained silent while Mohbad was bullied. She stated:

“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???.”
