The development comes just weeks after the singer addressed ongoing controversies linked to the death of his former signee, Mohbad, who died on September 12, 2023, at the age of 27. The tragic death triggered the #Justice4MohBad movement, with Nigerians calling for accountability and investigations into the circumstances surrounding the young star’s passing.
