Mohbad, one of the signees of Naira Marley, the controversial street singer, has raised alarm over what he described as a “physical assault” dealt on him under Marlian Records.
Marlian Records is owned by Naira Marley.
On Wednesday, the young singer took to Twitter to share footage of himself, highlighting a number of bloody bruises he sustained.
In one of the videos, associates of Mohbad are heard speaking in Yoruba, saying “they threw him on the floor and trampled on him.”
In a barrage of tweets, Mohbad claimed members of his management assaulted him for requesting a new manager.
He also called for help, saying “I am dying inside”.
Reacting in now-deleted tweets, Naira Marley claimed Mohbad was “high” when making the assault allegation.
The latest controversy involving Mohbad comes a few months after the singer was arrested alongside Zinoleesky, his co-signee, by officials of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA).
In February, Femi Babafemi, a spokesperson of the NDLEA, told TheCable Lifestyle that the singers were arrested with four others “after some quantities of cannabis and molly were recovered from their apartment and car.”
Although they were later released by the anti-drug agency, Mohbad had alleged attempts on his life by the label.
