Despite the rise in COVID-19 cases, Nigerian musician, Azeez Fashola, popularly known as Naira Marley has come under intense criticism for performing at a concert that recorded massive attendance in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
It was gathered that Naira Marley flew from Lagos to Abuja with Ex-BBNaija star, Kimoprah, despite the ban on interstate movement and flights.
The event which was meant to be a ‘drive-in-concert’ was held at the Jabi Lake Mall.
The musician was earlier arrested On April 6, 2020, for violating the lockdown rules by attending a house party organised by actress, Funke Akindele, and her husband Abdul Rasheed Bello.
He was later released after tendering a written apology to the Lagos State Government and an undertaking that he would henceforth comply with the government’s stay-at-home and social distancing directives; and that he would go into 14-day self-isolation, having attended a crowded birthday party.
