Nigerian influencer and socialite, Balogun Olamilekan, popularly known as Sam Larry, has extended a heartfelt prayer for fellow artist Naira Marley amidst recent controversies.
Taking to his Instagram page, Sam Larry invoked blessings upon Naira Marley, seeking divine protection and favor for the embattled singer.
In his prayer, Sam Larry fervently expressed his hopes that the divine presence in Naira Marley’s life would remain steadfast and that heaven would continue to bestow blessings upon him. He prayed for the removal of any obstacles hindering Naira Marley’s favor and declared that the efforts of his adversaries would be fruitless.
The prayer comes in the wake of a video where both Sam Larry and Naira Marley faced criticism for remaining silent during a prayer session for the late Mohbad, a former signee under Naira Marley’s record label. Despite allegations and rumours surrounding Mohbad’s death, both Naira Marley and Sam Larry were seen keeping quiet as the Imam prayed for the deceased.
The backlash intensified as the Imam had to prompt Naira Marley and Sam Larry to say “Amen” to the prayers, leading to further speculation and criticism from the public.
Naira Marley and Sam Larry were previously arrested and accused of involvement in Mohbad’s death, spending over five weeks in police custody before their release on bail. The pair met their bail conditions on November 17th, as confirmed by the Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer.
Addressing recent rumours about his own demise, Sam Larry took to Instagram to refute the false information, assuring his followers that he spent the day with family and even went out for dinner before returning home safely. He urged his fans to disregard the fake news and expressed gratitude to those who expressed concern for him amidst the rumours.
