"She Told Naira Marley Bella Was Giving Him Ice": Insider Spills Chilling Secrets About Mohbad, NDLEA Raid, and Betrayals

In a shocking turn of events that continues to send ripples through the Nigerian entertainment industry, a close friend of the late singer Mohbad has come forward with damning revelations that threaten to rewrite everything the public thought they knew about the controversial saga surrounding the former Marlian Music signee. In a candid and emotional account, the unnamed associate has revealed that Mohbad’s wife once reported Bella Shmurda to Naira Marley, alleging that Bella was giving Mohbad “ice” — a street term for drugs — a claim that adds new dimensions to the already complex narrative of betrayal, mental torture, and desperation.

The revelation, which surfaced on social media through an anonymous leak, details not only the fragile dynamics between Mohbad and those closest to him but also the darker underside of the Nigerian music industry — a world where trust is scarce, and alliances are often blurred. The friend, whose identity remains confidential for safety reasons, stated unequivocally that Mohbad’s wife had gone directly to Naira Marley, the head of Marlian Music, to inform him that Bella Shmurda — one of Mohbad’s closest allies and supporters — was allegedly the one introducing her husband to ice. “That thing broke Mohbad,” the friend stated. “He felt like he was completely surrounded by enemies, even in his own home.”

This information, if true, paints a complicated picture of the relationships surrounding the late artist, whose real name was Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba. Mohbad passed away under mysterious circumstances in 2023, prompting widespread protests and an outcry for justice. His death, ruled suspicious by fans and many industry insiders, triggered an avalanche of finger-pointing, conspiracy theories, and police investigations. Among the names that continuously surfaced in the storm of accusations was that of Naira Marley, whose relationship with Mohbad had soured long before the artist’s demise.

According to the close friend, tensions between Mohbad and his record label began long before the public fallouts and viral videos of physical assaults. The betrayal by his wife, as claimed, was a devastating blow that reportedly pushed Mohbad further into isolation. “He always trusted Bella,” the friend continued. “Bella was there when nobody else was. For his wife to turn that into a weapon and report Bella to Naira Marley, it was like stabbing him in the back. After that, he just stopped talking to a lot of people.”

Even more startling was the friend’s account of the night the NDLEA (National Drug Law Enforcement Agency) raided the residence shared by Zinoleesky, Mohbad, and several other artistes affiliated with Marlian Music. The incident, which occurred in early 2022, made headlines at the time, with videos of the violent raid circulating online. The friend recalls that moment vividly, describing it as the night everything changed for Mohbad. “We were in the house when the NDLEA came,” he recounted. “They broke into the apartment like armed robbers. No warrant, no explanation. Just guns, chaos, shouting. They took Zinoleesky, they took Mohbad, and they took a few others.”

While Zinoleesky was reportedly released soon after, the friend alleges that Mohbad’s experience in custody was drastically different. According to the narrative, Mohbad was singled out during questioning, with agents grilling him about drugs, affiliations, and his relationship with certain unnamed figures. “He told me they asked him who his supplier was. He said he didn’t know what they were talking about. But they kept pressing. They didn’t believe him.” The friend claims that Mohbad emerged from the NDLEA custody visibly shaken and deeply paranoid. “From that day, he changed. He started looking over his shoulder. He said he didn’t feel safe anymore.”

These revelations bring fresh scrutiny to the events leading up to Mohbad’s death and reinforce suspicions that the artist was entangled in a web of exploitation, betrayal, and targeted harassment. As fans continue to demand accountability, the statements made by Mohbad’s friend ignite further public anger, especially toward those who were once considered close to the late singer. The narrative that Mohbad was constantly fighting silent battles — within his home, his label, and the law enforcement system — is now taking on a new, heartbreaking clarity.

What makes this recent revelation even more distressing is the role played by those who were supposedly in Mohbad’s corner. Bella Shmurda, who had long stood as a vocal advocate for Mohbad after his passing, has not publicly responded to these fresh claims. However, many fans are defending him, pointing out his unwavering support during Mohbad’s troubles and after his death, including paying tribute and calling for justice.

The accusations leveled at Mohbad’s wife, on the other hand, have reignited old criticisms from skeptical fans who believe she may have played a more complicated role in the unfolding tragedy than previously admitted. Though she has consistently maintained her innocence and heartbreak over her husband’s untimely demise, this latest information could cast a new shadow over her statements.

The NDLEA, for its part, has never fully explained the details of its raid on Marlian-affiliated artistes, and the agency has remained tight-lipped on the allegations of mistreatment during detention. Advocacy groups and fans alike have long demanded more transparency from the agency, especially considering the psychological toll it allegedly took on Mohbad in the final months of his life.

As the dust continues to rise over these disclosures, calls for a comprehensive and independent investigation into Mohbad’s death are growing louder. Online hashtags like #JusticeForMohbad and #WhoKilledMohbad trend intermittently on social media, a testament to the unresolved grief and anger simmering within his fanbase and the general public.

While the full truth behind Mohbad’s tragic downfall may never be completely unearthed, the story told by his close friend adds new urgency to a case already brimming with unanswered questions. Who truly had Mohbad’s best interests at heart? Who betrayed him when he needed protection the most? And most importantly, who will answer for the pain, paranoia, and loss that now shrouds the legacy of one of Nigeria’s most promising young talents?

For now, all the world can do is wait — and hope that justice, no matter how delayed, will still find its way through the silence.
