Recall that MohBad died on Tuesday, September 12, 2023, under mysterious circumstances.
His death came amid a lingering dispute with Naira Marley, the owner of his former record label, Marlian Records.
Following MohBad’s demise, videos emerged of Larry, Marley’s head huncho, apparently assaulting the late singer.
The ‘Feel Good’ crooner also landed in hospital multiple times, alleging assault by Marley and his associates, including Larry.
The allegations led to Marley and Larry being pointed out as prime suspects in MohBad’s unexpected death.
The police subsequently invited both men for questioning.
While Marley said he was not in the country and would need the police to guarantee his safety before returning to Nigeria, Larry has submitted himself for questioning.
