Veteran Actor, Richard Mofe Damijo a.k.a. RMD has been recruited into the now cult-like followership of Azeez Fashola, popularly known as Naira Marley.

And the bearded 58 years old former commissioner for culture and tourism in Delta State seems to be very excited about the recruitment.

RMD on Monday took to his Instagram page to announce how he has become a Marlian. He supported this with a photograph he posed with the 28-year-old Lagos State-born versatile hip hop artiste.

In a somewhat lengthy post, RMD said:

“Early this year, my wife shared a seat with #nairamarley on a trip from Dubai. She told me how he was gentle and almost shy. A few months later on a flight from Abuja to Lagos, one of the last passengers to board was @nairamarley. And he sat beside me. He started laughing. We both knew why. I mean, what are the odds? I whipped out my phone and took this picture I am sharing with you now.

“Today the young man has grown into some kind of phenomenon. My young daughter calls herself a Marlian. Even when I tease her and ask so what happens to @davidoofficial she just smiles and covers her face. This is no joke. My whole household of holiday makers are all calling themselves Marlians. Question is…does posting this picture make me a Marlian?

Congratulations to Naira Marely for catching this Nollywood big fish.

It’s gradually turning out to be that the arrest of the hip hop artiste earlier in the year by EFFCC is winning for him large followership by the day.
