Nigerian singer, Michael Adebayo Olayinka, a.k.a Ruger has stated that the followers of the late singer Mohbad contributed to his death.
Mohbad, a former signee of the Marlian Record label owned by Naira Marley died on 12 September, in a controversial way.
Naira Marley and his associate, Sam Larry was accused of having a hand in Mohbad’s death after a series of clips of the duo subjecting Mohbad to a relentless bully after he left the Record label surfaced on social media.
However, speaking during his interview with UK based media personality, Adesope Olajide on ‘Afrobeats Podcast’, Ruger blamed Mohbad’s fans for complicating issues for him before his death.
He accused the late singer’s fans of not supporting him when he parted ways with the record label.
“I don’t know whether the label was Mohbad’s problem or not. I just want you all to know that the label was not only his problem, but the fans were his problem too.
“Because as soon as he left the label, I don’t think people continued listening to him anymore. I feel like they were just attached to the fact that he was a Marlian.”
