Abosede also said she once pleaded with Naira Marley, the Marlian Records boss, during the dispute between him and her son.

She added that she sought the intervention of fuji musician Wasiu Alabi Pasuma into the matter.

“Mohbad kept on cautioning me not to talk.

“I only got to know about the injury four days after, and the only person he had issues with is Naira Marley.”

Abosede said Omowunmi, Mohbad’s wife, had once accused the singer of infidelity.

“The only complaint from the wife about him was infidelity,” she added.
