Afrobeats star Naira Marley has been detained by Nigerian police for questioning in relation to the death of fellow singer MohBad. The news of MohBad's death caused a wave of grief among his fans, who demanded a thorough investigation. Marley faced outrage from the fans, who believed he was involved in the death after the two had a falling out when MohBad left Marley's music label. Marley, who denied any involvement in the death, returned from abroad to cooperate with the investigation. MohBad, also known as Imole, passed away in a Lagos hospital last month, but the cause of his death remains uncertain. The police have taken music promoter Sam Larry into custody to assist in the investigation. Concerns were raised when MohBad's family hurriedly buried him a day after his death, following the customs of their Yoruba ethnic group. The police have exhumed MohBad's body for an autopsy, with the results pending. Marley has been held for interrogation and investigation activities. The dispute between Marley and MohBad began after the latter left Marley's music label, with videos surfacing of MohBad accusing the label of mistreatment and withholding his royalties. Marley dismissed these claims and denied any involvement in MohBad's death. Mourners held a concert and protests demanding justice for MohBad, leading to an inquiry by the Lagos state governor involving the secret police.
