The show promoter, who spoke in Yoruba, also claimed that the videos being circulated are old.
“Good morning, good afternoon, good evening. Wherever you might be listening to this, my name is Samson Erinfolami Balogun Eletu. In everything that is happening. Mohbad is my brother, I like him.
“When he was signed to Marlian Records, he knew I loved him so much. Even his wife knows, everyone knows I love Mohbad. Everywhere I go, whether it is Kenya or Dubai, I will call him so that we can go together, I will pay Marlian Records for a show and we will go together.
“So, if we are at loggerheads, it does not mean it would be deadly, I cannot kill Mohbad, I love him so much. God sees my heart, I love him, I cannot kill him, I do not know anything about the cause of his death.

“The viral video only shows what happened a long time ago. It happened last year. In the video that showed him and Zlatan sitting in a wheelchair, Zlatan is my witness, you can call Zlatan to ask him if I laid my hands on Mohbad.
“In the video of him in a club, it was his friend I was having a conversation with. If you watch the video, you will see a few bouncers begging Mohbad to stop the argument because Sam Larry had started settling the crisis. They asked him to desist from it because it was not his concern,” Sam Larry said.
