Mohbad: Naira Marley ‘wrongly accused’, deserves apology – Bashir Ahmad

Former senior special assistant on new media to ex-President Muhammadu Buhari, Bashir Ahmad, has weighed in on the Naira Marley and Mohbad saga.

After watching Naira Marley’s YouTube video detailing his side of the story, Ahmad expressed his support for the Marlian boss.

According to him, Naira Marley has been wrongly accused and commends him for meticulously documenting his interactions with Mohbad, including messages, calls, videos, and dates.

He opined that the habit of documentation can protect individuals from false narratives and injustice.

He feels that those who have wrongly accused Naira Marley owe him an apology.

He wrote on X, “I have never really taken time to go through the Naira Marley and Mohbad saga. I was only vaguely aware of the headlines and social media reactions until this morning, when I watched the video where Naira Marley shared his own side of the story. Honestly, I wouldn’t have believed him if he hadn’t documented everything so thoroughly, messages, calls, videos and dates, from the very first day they started talking, to the very last time.

“It is truly a blessing when God gives you the wisdom to document every important situation in your life. That habit alone can save you from injustice and false narratives.

“Those who wrongly accused Naira Marley owe him an apology, at the very least. May Mohbad continue to rest in peace.”

Ahmad’s comments come after Naira Marley shared his account of events leading up to Mohbad’s death, providing evidence to back up his claims.

The controversy has sparked intense discussions on social media, with many calling for a thorough investigation into Mohbad’s death and others defending Naira Marley’s innocence.
