His statement, which we have translated to English, reads in part: “Good morning, good afternoon, good evening. Wherever you might be listening to this, my name is Samson Irefolabi Balogun Eletu. In everything that is happening, Mohbad is my brother, and I like him. Even when he was at Marlians Records, he knew I loved him, and his wife also knows.”

“Everyone knows I love Mohbad. Everywhere I go, whether it’s Kenya or Dubai, I ask Mohbad to follow me, and I even mentioned that I’ll pay Marlians Records so we can have a show.”

“The fact that we’re fighting doesn’t necessarily involve death. I cannot kill Mohbad. I love him so much; God knows my heart. I love him, and I cannot kill him.”

“I know nothing about his death. The viral video only shows what happened a long time ago. It happened last year when I wasn’t even in Nigeria, and it was circulated online.”

“There’s a video where he was in a wheelchair, and Zlatan is my witness. You can call him and ask him if I touched Mohbad.”

The statement made by the individual in the video has attracted attention on social media, and concerned individuals have taken to the comment page to air their views.
