Published

on

Popular Nigerian singer, Azeez Fashola aka Naira Marley on Tuesday said he is not responsible for the death of late singer, Mohbad and he’s making arrangements to return to the country to assist the ongoing investigation over the death of his former signee.

The Marlian boss made this known in a statement released by his management team via his Instagram handle.

Recall Mohbad died on September 12, 2023 and was buried the following day in Ikorodu, Lagos.

The singer’s sudden death has continued to spark controversies on the tail of the circumstances that surrounded it, with many alleging Naira Marley as having a hand in his death following their fallout.

Reacting to the allegations and threats received since the death of Mohbad, Naira Marley denied being responsible for the death of his former signee.

The statement reads: “In the last few days, there has been a lot of onslaught on my person and reputation globally over the death of my former signee. All manner of stories has been woven against me in respect of his untimely death. I have not only been in shock over the death of the deceased whom I considered to be my brother and member of our music family, but over the various lies spread and threats against me.

“Before I progress further, let me say that as it is traumatic for a lot of people to bear the reality of lleri’s death, so it is to me. May his gentle soul continue to rest in peace and may God grant his family the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss.

”Permit me to categorically state that I have no hand in the death of llerioluwa, either directly or indirectly. It is not unusual in the industry, just like in several other industries to have family friction, even amongst blood relatives.

“Truly, we had our own share of misunderstandings whilst working together, but the disagreement between us was never to the extent being painted by some hirelings. It never degenerated to the extent of wishing each other death. Even at that, we were resolving our business disputes legally before he had passed.

“I have chosen not to say anything since due to being distraught over his death and in order not to jeopardize the investigation being carried out by the government agencies.

“In addition, I have been out of the country since the 31st of August, 2023 and I’m yet to return. In light of the police invitation, I am making arrangements to return to the country to assist the investigation and give my version of the events. I am fully cooperating with the Police team and I certainly have no reason to be a fugitive when I have no hand in his death.

”I am certain that the culprit behind his death and has a vendetta against me and are fueling public opinions to have me lynched for reasons known to them. In due time the circumstances surrounding Mohbad’s death will be unveiled and the world will know the truth. This kind of scenario of attempting to set someone up is not novel in the industry as other great musicians have experienced the same and came out better and stronger. Mine will not be an exception as I am innocent of the accusations.’

”Mohbad left the label in September 2022, the label accepted his departure. Marlian Music did not stop or interfere with his career or releases since and he has been with oneRPM. Legal efforts were made to reconcile his concerns regarding the work we had done together.

”The rumors regarding the label being a drug cartel are untrue. I am not a drug lord, neither do I Marley belong to any cult or fraternity. I’m dedicated to proving my innocence and I’m cooperating with the authorities to clear my name with sufficient evidence.

”Marlian Music is an independent label run by a small intimate team. We run a legitimate label that focuses on championing exceptional talent, breaking new acts and nurturing them.

”I will like to clearly state that I have never fought or attacked Mohbad. For the avoidance of doubt I have never instructed anyone, friend, known associates or fans to attack, bully or harass <Mohbad. With regards to the talent on the label, none of our artists ever fought or mistreated Mohbad.

”I share my deepest condolences to the family. Let’s be mindful as we seek justice to focus on supporting the police and authorities with relevant information and evidence surrounding his death so that those responsible will be apprehended. I am positive that at the end of the day. the truth will prevail and I shall be exonerated.

”My lawyers are already in touch with the police and government agencies and will support in every way necessary.

”Without a doubt I will honor his memory and I promise to do right by him and his family.

”Thank you.”

Regina Daniels Hints At Divorce Amid Marital Crisis

Published

on

It has become increasingly apparent that there are significant issues in the marriage between Senator Ned Nwoko and actress Regina Daniels.

Regina has shared a message that strongly suggests she may be considering divorce from her billionaire husband amid their ongoing marital difficulties.

This revelation has sparked a wave of speculation and concern among fans and followers of the couple, who have been closely monitoring their relationship dynamics. Regina’s hints at potential separation indicate that there may be deeper conflicts underlying their public facade, raising questions about the future of their union.

In an Instagram post, she wrote, “I have a roof over my head and the next is divorce,” after sharing a picture of her new house. Daniels’ posts came as Nwoko defended his polygamous lifestyle, saying he feels sorry for men with one wife, comparing the situation to standing on one leg.

“Just imagine telling you to stand on one leg, you know how difficult it is. But it is much more balanced to stand on two, three, or four,” he stated during an interview on Channels TV.

Nwoko, who is married to four wives, including Regina Daniels, expressed no regrets about his marital choices, insisting he would do similar things again.

The couple’s marital crisis began when Daniels accused Nwoko of domestic violence in a viral video. Nwoko denied the allegations, saying he respects and loves his wives and children.

Trending Video: Omoge Saida’s Leaked Nudes Tops Social Media Buzz

Published

on

The name Omoge Saida has recently become a dominant social media trend in Nigeria. Once celebrated as a muse of Fuji music legend King Wasiu Ayinde Marshal (KWAM 1), she has now become the subject of online discussions that blend nostalgia, controversy, and reflections on privacy in the digital age, as reported by Spectatorsng.com.

Omoge Saida, a popular UK-based gold dealer and Lagos socialite, became a household name after being eulogized by KWAM 1, the Ultimate in one of his Fuji classics. The Fuji icon, known for immortalising influential personalities through poetic praise, used her name to symbolize grace, wealth, and class — a hallmark of the Yoruba highlife culture that flourished in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Her appearance in KWAM 1’s music established her as a symbol of beauty and sophistication, and the phrase “Omoge Saida” soon became a pop expression among Fuji lovers.

Decades later, that same name resurfaced for an entirely different reason, trending widely after a purported private viral video began circulating online. The incident ignited heated conversations about digital ethics, online privacy, and non-consensual content — raising questions about how quickly the internet can turn admiration into intrusion.

Following the matrimonial mess involving Senator Ned Nwoko and Reginal Daniels that has pushed out different narratives from the couples in the last three days on social media, Reginal’s father has finally opened up.

Regina had accused her husband, Senator Ned Munir Nwoko, of domestic violence in a video making the rounds, an allegation he already countered.

According to a Facebook post quoting Jude Ojegwu, Reginal Daniels’ father, saying:
“Regina and her mother, Rita Daniels called an ēnēmy of progress and wished me Dēãth when I told her not to mãrry Ned Nwoko.” _ Regina Daniels’ father, JUDE OJEGWU reveals 😲‼️
“I knew this marriage was bound to have issues. Even me I am in my late 50s and I can’t marry a 20-year old girl. I feel very ãshamed that I was alive and watched my own 18-year daughter marry a 70-years old man. When Regina told me about this marriage, I told her that there’s more to life and marrying a man who is older than me her father isn’t right. But guess what? Her mother, Rita called me an ēnēmy of progress and wished me dēath. So I backed off and let Regina follow her happiness since she was already an adult anyway. I didn’t even attend her wedding because I was ãngry. And today the same marriage they called me an ēnēmy of progress when I tried to open her eyes is crumblîng. I knew this would happen but I just hope she finds peace in her matrimonial home.” ~ JUDE OJEGWU
