I have never really taken time to go through the Naira Marley and Mohbad saga, I was only vaguely aware of the headlines and social media reactions, until this morning, when I watched the video where Naira Marley shared his own side of the story.
"Honestly, I wouldn’t have believed him if he hadn’t documented everything so thoroughly, messages, calls, videos and dates, from the very first day they started talking, to the very last time.
"It is truly a blessing when God gives you the wisdom to document every important situation in your life. That habit alone can save you from injustice and false narratives. Those who wrongly accused Naira Marley owe him an apology, at the very least. May Mohbad continue to rest in peace."
