Naira Marley And Lagos State Police
The Lagos Police Command, just like the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC is helping and preparing Nigerian singer Azeez Fashola also known as Naira Marley, for another breakthrough in his musical career.
Naira Marley is being wanted for questioning by the Lagos State police command on his attendance during a house birthday party organised by a well known Nigerian Actress, Finke Akindele- Bello withing Lagos State.
He is being wanted because, according to the state police, the house birthday party contravenes the lockdown order issued by the Lagos State government, considering that the state is currently the Coronavirus Epic centre in Nigeria.
With the order mandating Lagos State residents to stay in their homes, while they maintain social distancing and shun gatherings of more than twenty persons in attendance, Naira Marley is being wanted for violation of the order.
The moral justification of Naira Marley attending a party within his estate while such order is still enforced is not the basis for this writeup, but that as the Lagos State police command is looking for him, he is looking for ways to blow out of this.
You will remember how he got into the limelight and has since then remained a strong force to reckon with in the Nigerian music industry.
In 2019, Naira Marley was charged to court by the EFCC on 11 count charge bordering on cybercrime, possession of counterfeit cards, and conspiracy to obtain gain.
During his trial, Naira Marley was denied bail and kept in the prison custody while Zlatan Ibile and three other arrested along with him for the same offense regained freedom even after he pleaded not guilty for all the charges.
After his release, Zlatan Ibile released a single titled ‘4 Days In Okotie Eboh’, where he blasted those he called ‘fake friends’ who turned their backs on him after he was arrested.
The song made waves, but not compared to the one Naira Marley released after he got out of the prison net. called “soapy.”
That song was a major breakthrough for him after his release, till date, that song hasn’t be forgotten, especially the dance that went along with it.
Now that he has been found in another drama with the Lagos State police command and possibly another trip to the court, you can predict what will come out of it.
Naira Marley is one Nigerian Musician whose fan base goes beyond the imaginable. Since his scuffle with the EFCC, he has written his name on the minds of a lot of people even outside the shores of Nigeria.
What do you think will be the title of the song that will come out of his new lockdown palava with the Lagos State police command? Watch out!
