This is a must read........
The Mother said
“Whoever killed my child; their house will be hot; there will be war there; they will grieve. The glory of that family will drown. This is for whoever killed him and their children because they caused me pain.
“I’m alive but it is not ideal for me to be talking; what do I say about my child? But I know that from the time Naira (Marley) came into my son’s life, my son had no rest. His mind was not at rest.
All the times they lied against him; I could not talk because I was not given permission to talk. I asked my son what happened. I still called that morning; he gave me money to go to the hospital. I called him from that hospital. He said Mummy, something is happening.
“When they came for him, he was not there. He was in the studio, singing. But when he knew something was happening, he came to me. I asked him: what is happening? I was his life and his heaven. He said he came because he heard something happened and that they took them.
He said he was given water and didn’t know what happened afterwards. That was when the problem started. He is dead; he sees me but I can’t see him. We started going from place to place- my son and I. He could not sleep. Till Promise died, he was afraid. Sometimes, when he was supposed to attend shows, he would not go. They would say Naira and his crew were coming.
“They were beating him every day. People would call me, even people I didn’t know. Till he died, I also didn’t rest. I was afraid and frightened. Before he died, I spent 10 days in his house. I left on a Saturday and heard on Monday that he was dead. I still spoke to his wife that Monday; it was about one hour later that I received a call that he was dead
All the things they are saying are lies. They said he was mentally ill. Don’t you understand what they call mental illness? Promise was mad but he was married and had children. People are not afraid of God and the dead. My son was not mentally ill. Those who claim he was mentally ill, please ask them for the name of the hospital that confirmed it. Where is the result of the test?
“I’m not dead but I don’t know what to do. He left his wife and children behind. He is survived by others including his brother and me. From the time Naira Marley came into his life, I knew Promise was in trouble
He is dead but he didn’t enjoy his life. I won’t lie to you. Where Promise went to, I will also go there one day. All of us will still go there. Let us be careful. All those saying all kinds of things, fear God and fear the dead. If Promise could appear to us, he should do so, so that he would explain all that happened.
“My son was not mentally ill. I never knew Naira (Marley) until Promise met him. Please save me; they have hurt me through my son’s death. See what happened to my son who had so much glory. He didn’t have a headache and had no liver problem.
“There was nothing wrong with him when he went for his last show. He went to the show in Ikorodu. I don’t have any power; who will fight for me?”
Kai! This is so heartbreaking
ReplyDeleteNone of the adults around him advised him to report the threat to life to the police? There are pictures and videos of injuries from different bearings. The bullies would have been made to write an undertaking that they will be liable if anything happens to him. May his soul RIP
DeleteSo painful to read.
ReplyDeleteThey will all receive fire.
RIP Mohbad.
Shedding tears 😭😭 this is painful
Delete"I don't have any power,who will fight for me? ....watch God fight for you,they are not above him. yesterday after reading about his twisted neck on this blog during his burial,I decided to google the video,I don't know who sent me cos I regretted ever watching that video. He suffered while alive and even in death they had to twist his neck to fit into the coffin. God will fight for you mama
ReplyDeleteAww mama pls take heart may God comfort you 💔💔💔 May God hear your cry against this evil doers amen
ReplyDeleteThis is so so sad.
ReplyDeleteLord, please help get justice for Imole. Let those involved not escape your wrath. It's sad menn!
I was surprised when I got to know he has a mother. Where has she been all these while? Seeing her body language in the interview sef show she's not mothering anything, his case is a result of broken home, father mother on separate page,the father even said he's giving more money to his mum and mother in-law than him
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of dirty talk is this? What has broken home got to do with the issue on ground?
DeleteYour point is an issue for another day.
DeleteFor now, prayers are directed towards bringing Sam Larry back from his Kenya hiding.
He has A LOT TO EXPOSE.
He's needed alive.
Good the Elegushi family has issued a press statement denying him.
1st call🤝
Oh my God!, May God forgive you! Do you know their story?!
DeleteAnon 10:42 are you for real?
DeleteMao Akuh
You are very wicked, you have a wicked heart.
DeleteJustice for mohbad
ReplyDeleteThe wicked ll not go unpunished
I wish they spoke up before it became too late 😭
So painful and a sad read. This is so sad a painful exit.
ReplyDeleteMay God console the family he left behind. I pray the mystery behind his death unraveled but then, I'm afraid he might not get justice.
I don tire to type RIP!
ReplyDeleteHis soul is not resting. We want justice, after that his soul can rest.
A lot of ill treatment has happened to so many young ones out there with no one to fight for them. Parents no get voice, oppression anyhow. Even from the police. They just lock up, some even die and go. Wickedness especially from those once that feel they're untouchable cos of one or two.
May the light he always calls himself shine so bright and reveal all those who oppress in that develish industry.
His lyrics were never about drugs, women or some gibberish the other one that refuse to have sense sings. As dey don cancel his shows for the abroad, may he receive small sense. The helpless boy sings about, peace, struggles, oppression, survival. He was screaming it but no one heard na that one pain me pass.
He didn't release a statement until the petition to ban his record label gained traction.
DeleteVery painful 😭😭😭
ReplyDeleteWill there ever be justice for Promise??
ReplyDeleteVery painful.
ReplyDelete💔💔💔💔
ReplyDeleteWho is this naira marley? why is the appropriate authority not eager to invite him? Is he more human that mohbad?? May God help our youths.
ReplyDeleteI kept asking o.
DeleteMao Akuh
This broke my heart 💔
ReplyDeleteRon
The father is saying another thing entirely.
ReplyDeletethe music industry is a dark and demonic place. People enter all sorts of covenants and dark deals to gain wealth, be famous. Sometimes they don't know how deep the river is until they have entered and are unable to swim back. After making all the deals, after al the money, the enemy comes for everything and when they can no longer repay, he comes for their life because they have already offered it to him.
ReplyDeleteIf it's not family members or children, (especially first sons) dying in strange ways, it is the artiste themselves dying or getting involved in accidents. No one knows what sacrifices these people have made to be where they are today. They have murdered sleep, and they can't sleep anymore.
Everything is vanity. No one will be buried with their wealth. Death is sure for everyone- where will you spend eternity?
A mother losing her child is the most painful thing on earth. You can never get over it. May God give her the strength to live with it.
ReplyDeleteThis is sad to read and it really broke my heart, RIP Imole may God console your mother
ReplyDeleteMay God console her and give her peace. My heart breaks for her.
ReplyDeleteVery sad, my heart bleed
DeleteMay God rest his soul, but where was his mother when all these were happening to him? As a mother, nobody can threaten my child/ren while I'm still alive, I'll fight like a tiger.
ReplyDeleteWhy didn't she speak up ? I'm afraid this is Nigeria, the well connected people go scot free, I pray his spirit taunts his killers till they're useless or die.
Very sad,
ReplyDeleteFeel so sad for this woman, nobody she lose their children and not in this circumstance. I pray to God to fight for this woman. It obvious that his dad has been bribed cos the man keep saying rubbish up and down.
ReplyDeleteMay God comfort her and all those who truly loved Imole.
ReplyDeletePlease let the authorities follow up the petition of the deceased concerning Sam Larry and the urchins he used to terrorize this boy. Those charges have clear video evidence so he should be made to face the law.
May your light continue to shine bright Promise! You will be fondly remembered. Through your songs, you have become immortal
