Popular Nigerian singer and Marlin Records boss, Azeez Fashola, better known by his stage name as Naira Marley has locked the comment section of his Instagram posts following backlash from critics.
This comes after over 126,000 people reportedly signed a petition to ban his record label Marlian Music.
The ‘Marlian’ crooner, has been in the news for one reason or the other since the death of his former signee, Mohbad set social media ablaze this week.
In a post shared on his Instagram handle Friday night, Naira Marley described Mohbad as “an incredible street pop star who contributed to the foundation of the Marlian Music”.
He said despite the fall-out the label never wished any harm on Mohbad.
However, findings revealed that the singer locked his comment section on the two posts to avoid backlash from angry fans.
Meanwhile, Lagos State Police Command has said the corpse of the late singer would be exhumed for an autopsy to aid investigation into the cause of his death, if it is necessary.
Speaking during an Instagram live session with media personality, Ifedayo Olarinde, popularly known as Daddy Freeze, on Thursday night, the Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, said the police would probe to know the cause of Mohbad’s death.
