After months of speculation and public backlash, controversial Nigerian show promoter Sam Larry has finally addressed the allegations linking him to the tragic death of rising music star, Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad.

In a recent exclusive interview with outspoken activist VeryDarkMan, Sam Larry broke his silence, offering his side of the story surrounding the viral beach confrontation video that resurfaced following Mohbad’s passing in September 2023.

Speaking directly on the now-infamous 9-second clip showing him confronting Mohbad at a beach location, Sam Larry claimed the situation was blown out of proportion and widely misunderstood.

“That video was just nine seconds. I was at the beach with my son. I saw Mohbad and went to ask him for a refund over a show he didn’t attend,” he explained.

“Zlatan was there, and he quickly stepped in to resolve the issue. There was no assault or violence. People misunderstood what happened.”
