Mohbad: Reps Summon Naira Marley Over Late Singer’s Royalties

As part of its moves to secure proper compensation and royalties for the late singer Ilerioluwa Aloba popularly called Mohbad, the House of Representatives has summoned embattled singer, Azeez Fashola (Naira Marley) to appear before it.

The House through its Committee on Justice, Youth and Legislative Compliance, issued the summon on Thursday, while also inviting the manager of the late singer, Jiggy Adeoye, to an interactive session slated for Tuesday.

Osun Defender had reported that Mohbad, an ex-signee of Naira Marley’s record label, died on September 12 at age 27 with controversies surrounding his death.

Following the adoption of a motion moved by Babajimi Benson (APC, Lagos), the House resolved to wade into the matter.

Benson had while expressing concerns about the contracts and agreements that entertainers are compelled to sign, called for a review of relevant laws guiding the entertainment industry as well as copyright laws

In a letter dated October 26 and signed by the committee’s clerk, Yusuf Ibrahim, the House said both Naira Marley and Mohbad’s manager were needed to guide the committee on further legislative action.
