On February 13, 2021, a story went viral online claiming that the Cameroonian government had decided to put off the much-anticipated Valentine’s Concert by Naira Marley. Due to jealousy on the part of Cameroonian performers who are uncomfortable with the popularity of Nigerian music and musicians in Cameroon, the concert had already been postponed twice by the organizer and moved to different locations before being totally shelved by authorities in the country.

Assault and Claim of Domestic Violence

Singer Naira Marley was charged with beating his signee Mohbad in a series of statements posted on his social media on October 5, 2022. The messages included images and videos of the rapper Mohbad, who was hospitalized due to his purported injuries.

Naira Marley, in response to the claim, however, described the incident as a “family affair.” The artist responded to the scene in an Instagram live video by asserting that Mohbad was probably “high” (alcohol-impaired) when making the complaint.
