Nigerian actor, Jude Chukwuka has revealed that he was accosted by a group of youths who believed he is the father of controversial rapper, Naira Marley.
The veteran thespian said he went to Ikorodu in Lagos state for a movie shoot when area boys surrounded him and said his son, Marley was responsible for the death of Mohbad.
Chukwuka, nicknamed Marlian daddy, went viral years ago over a video of him dancing to the ‘Soapy’ crooner’s song. He shared his scary experience during an interview on Oyinmomo TV hosted by gospel artiste, Deborah Ajayi.
He said he explained to the area boys that he cannot be the artiste’s father because their names are different, and any issues Naira Marley had with Mohbad did not involve him.
“When I went to Ikorodu for a shoot, a lot of people gathered around me to say it is my child that killed Mohbad,” Chukwuka said in part.
