Lil Smart Makes U-Turn on Allegations Against Former Boss, Naira Marley
Former Marlians Records signee, Lil Smart, has retracted his earlier accusations against his former record label boss, Naira Marley, in a surprising turn of events.
Gistreel recalls that Lil Smart was previously embroiled in a heated controversy with Naira Marley, accusing the singer of cyberbullying, kidnapping, assault, and robbery. However, in a recent interview, he refuted those claims, stating that Naira Marley never bullied, kidnapped, or financially exploited him.
The controversy escalated when the Nigerian police confirmed the arrest of Lil Smart following a petition filed by Naira Marley. According to a statement released on the official Instagram page of the Nigerian Police Force, Lil Smart was arrested last month at his residence in Mejamogun Estate, Ajah, Lagos. Law enforcement also reported recovering relevant exhibits from the scene.
During a recent interview with Muyiwa Adejobi, the Public Relations Officer of the Nigerian Police Force, Lil Smart addressed the allegations, stating that he had misunderstood the situation.
“Naira Marley never abducted me, and he didn’t steal my $300. I thought his boys acted on his behalf,” Lil Smart admitted.
The retraction has sparked a wave of reactions from social media users, with many expressing skepticism over his new stance. Some believe he initially fabricated the allegations to gain public sympathy, while others question whether he was pressured into reversing his claims.
Reactions from netizens include:
Alo Joseph: “I used to pity this boy. I thought he was innocent too. Not until after he insulted VDM and ran away because VDM wanted to help him investigate.”
Emmanuel Sunday: “See as dem give am mic like person wey dey give testimony for church.”
Jozzy Mayana: “The truth shall set you free. No be for this kind case Ooo 😂😂😂.”
Maureen Gift: “Make Naira Marley collect 10 billion naira. He knows Marley has been in trouble because of Mohbad’s case. He really wants Nigeria to judge him. Let him face the law.”
As the controversy continues to unfold, many are eager to see how Naira Marley and Lil Smart handle the situation moving forward. Will this reversal clear the singer’s name, or will it raise further suspicions? More updates to follow as events develop.
