Naira Marley has released a statement addressing the controversy surrounding Mohbad’s death, in which he and others, including Zinoleesky and Sam Larry, were falsely accused
A court has since declared them innocent.
In an emotional post on X, Naira Marley expressed his pain and frustration, stating that he had been unfairly maligned and that his name had been dragged through the mud.
He revealed that he had made amends with Mohbad before his passing and that they had understood each other beyond the public’s perception.
Naira Marley criticized those who had pointed fingers at him, saying that they had allowed him to be torn apart by the public while knowing the truth.
He emphasized that he had welcomed Mohbad and others into his home and given them his trust, only to be betrayed.
The musician reflected on his experience, stating that he had stood before the justice system, spent time in jail, and faced everything head-on.
He expressed his gratitude that the truth had finally come to light and that he had been cleared of wrongdoing.
Naira Marley concluded his statement by saying that he had been broken but not destroyed. He prayed that those who had wronged him would have the strength to bear the truth when it finally comes to light.
He wrote: “I never thought silence could be so loud. I never thought someone I called my brother, someone I protected, would leave this world with my name in his shadow. I have carried this weight, this pain, this shame that was never mine to bear.
We, as Marlians, were not perfect. We had to grow, we had to adapt.
Mistakes were made, but they were business-never war. I made peace with Mohbad. We understood each other beyond the noise, beyond the misunderstandings. And you know this.
Yet when he took his last breath in you alls arms, you looked at the world and pointed at me. You let them tear me apart. You let them call me a killer while you sat there, knowing the truth. Now you tell the story?
I welcomed you all into my home. I gave you my trust. And yet, my brother is gone, still not buried, and that is your fault. Telling the truth from the beginning would have given him the rest he deserves. Regardless I will always be there for him.
You never thought I would survive. You never thought I would walk through the fire and face my people, maybe you hoped I would stay a fugitive. You thought I would run. Instead, I stood before the justice system, spent time in jail, and faced everything head-on while you changed the story, again and again.
But God sees all. The truth does not shake. The lies will fade, and time will reveal everything.
I have been broken, but I am not destroyed. And when the truth finally speaks, I pray your heart is strong enough to bear it.
– Naira Marley”
