Nigerian singer, David Adeleke popularly known as Davido has revealed that he has been having difficulty sleeping following the controversial death of Mohbad.
According to the “Unavailable” singer, via his Instagram story on Tuesday, the spirit of the late Mohbad is so compelling that he’s unable to sleep at night. “Mohbad your spirit strong ooo… sleep come hard me”, he wrote.
In another separate post, Davido expressed his intention to return to the country for the candlelight procession scheduled to be held for the deceased singer. This is coming after a post on the singer’s official Instagram page announced that a candlelight procession and tribute concert will take place in Lekki, Lagos, on Thursday, September 21.
“We appreciate the outpouring of love from fans across the world to the ones who’ve organized events in their communities as a way to honor and pay respect to our shining light we say thank you. Join us for Mohbad’s Candlelight Procession and Tribute Concert”, the post read.
The 27-year-old Mohbad died in a controversial manner last Tuesday. It can be recalled that Naira Marley and Mohbad had a misunderstanding in 2020 over royalties and a change of Mohbad’s management, which led to Mohbad terminating his contract with Marlian Music over alleged assault from the record label.
The deceased singer was nominated for Best Street Hip-Hop Artiste at the recently concluded 16th Headies Awards for his song ‘Peace’. While alive, reports were that the young singer Mohbad lived in constant fear and was never at peace. It seems even in death, chaos still trails him.

Davido’s fourth studio album “Timeless” has been named “Album of the Year” at the African Muzik Magazine Awards (AFRIMMAs) 2023. The project which houses 17 tracks was released in March through Davido Music Worldwide, Columbia Records, and Sony Music Entertainment.
O.B.O ‘Timeless’ beat Asake’s ‘Work of Art’, Stonebowoy’s ‘5th Dimension’, Omah Lay’s ‘Boy Alone Deluxe’, Amaarae’s ‘Fountain Baby’, amongst others to clinch the ‘Album of the Year’. The event, the 10th edition of AFRIMMA, was held on Sunday night at the Meyerson Symphony Center in Dallas, Texas.
This award is Davido’s first for his cutting-edge body of work. ‘Timeless’ swiftly became the top-charting African album on iTunes shortly after its release and also reached number two on the US Apple Music Albums chart.
