Mohbad’s mother has pleaded with the federal government to apprehend Naira Marley and all other individuals connected to her son’s death.


“We are unable to locate Naira Marley on our own; it’s a task beyond us. He’s the individual my son informed me about, the one who used to intimidate my son. Please assist me in locating Naira Marley. Help me uncover Naira’s whereabouts, along with those who provided him with bottled water containing something suspicious,” she spoke in Yoruba language in the video.

She seeks closure and accountability, hoping that those responsible for her son’s demise will be held accountable for their actions.

On Thursday, the spokesperson of the Lagos state police command, Benjamin Hundeyin, officially confirmed that Mohbad’s body has been exhumed, and preparations are underway for an autopsy to be conducted.


In a powerful display of solidarity, youths have taken to the streets of Ondo, Akure, Delta, Abeokuta, Ibadan and other states to raise their voices in protest.
