Posted by Samson Balogun, alias Sam Larry, has been publicly shunned by the Elegushi Royal Family of the Ikate-Elegushi Kingdom in Lagos State.
On Thursday, September 14, 2023, the royal family issued a statement publicly rejecting the show’s promoter.
It made it clear that Sam Larry, like the rest of the people, came before the king solely to offer his respects and ask for the king’s favor.
The monarchy has demanded an in-depth investigation into the murder of 27-year-old Nigerian artist Ilerioluwa Olademeji Aloba, alias Mohbad, while expressing condolences to the singer’s family.
The statement said, among other things, that “Samson Balogun [Sam Larry] is not a member of the royal family and does not work for the royal family or the king in any capacity.” Just like the rest of the public, he pays his respects to the king and asks for the royal family’s approval by paying a visit to the palace.
Our hearts go out to the loved ones of the late Ilerioluwa Aloba (also known as MohBad), and we join the chorus of those demanding an investigation into his death to rule out any foul play.
After a video appeared online showing Sam Larry and his guys interfering with Mohbad’s video shoot with Zlatan Ibile, the former associate of Mohbad’s former record label owner Naira Marley came under harsh fire on social media, as reported by kuryaloaded.
On Tuesday, September 10, 2023, Mohbad passed away, just over a year after his bitter breakup with the Marlian Music record company, founded by Naira Marley.
