Naira Marley
By CHRISTINE
Nigerian singer, Azeez Adeshina Fashola popularly known as Naira Marley, has reacted to the arrest of his signees by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA).
The fast-rising singers, Oniyide Azeez popularly known as Zinoleesky, and Ilerioluwa Oladimeji also known as Mohbad , were arrested in the early hours of Thursday.
In a series of tweets, the musician described their action as unjust, saying it is gradually becoming a pattern.
Marley disclosed that Mohbad had been released but Zinoleesky was still in custody.
“NDLEA have released Mohbad after physically assaulting him, Zinoleesky is still in custody. The boys are under a lot of stress after being ambushed in the middle of the night with no warrant. I’m urgently returning to Lagos now now now.
“What is happening to my brothers is disgusting. The injustice is unfair and this is beginning to look like a pattern. First me now my artists. Free Zinoleesky, free shubomi, free micee and dosky.” (Daily Trust)
