Naira Marley, one of Nigeria’s most renowned singer, has faced criticism from Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh for requesting the Nigerian police to guarantee his safety before returning to the country to assist in the investigation into the death of his former signee, Mohbad.
Sam Larry and Marley, the two primary suspects in the murder of the 27-year-old rapper, had been traveling abroad.
Larry reportedly entered Nigeria last week, while the Marlian Music CEO remains abroad. He has stated that he will only return to Nigeria if the government can ensure his safety.
Tonto, along with several other celebrities, has been closely following the matter and responded to the incident by deeming his need for safety assurance as absurd.
The 38-year-old actress has accused Naira Marley of deliberately harassing Mohbad, physically assaulting him, and orchestrating circumstances that led him to contemplate suicide.
According to Tonto, the ‘Tesumole’ singer has no authority to make such demands since he failed to ensure Mohbad’s safety while he was alive.
Tonto Dikeh captioned her post: “No sleep for the wicked.”
The mother of one added; “Naira Marley you want your safety to be guaranteed? Laughable. But you never gave #Generalmohbad a chance at life free of bullying, extortion, violence, drug abuser.
Set ups, beatings, terror and fear of one’s life till the point he felt unaliving himself would be better than facing your ( Naira Marley/sam Larry) wrath. You never guaranteed his safety and always hurt him at every given chance
