Nigerian Singer, Naira Marley has revealed he has two wives and four children, who are all British citizens.
He claimed he is not a criminal and he has no idea what the EFCC found on his laptop.
The singer said apart from storing his songs and music videos, he had never done anything illegal with his laptop.
He said this in his statement on oath which he made while in EFCC custody, which was obtained by The Punch.
He wrote,
“My name is Azeez Fashola.
“I am married to two wives and I have four kids. They are all British citizens staying in the United Kingdom.
“I studied in the United Kingdom, started studying at Porlock Hall, then I moved to Walworth School where I received my GCSE.
“My results for my GCSE are English (C), Maths (B) and Science (C).
“I left Walworth School with my qualification and went further to study at Peckham Academy, where I got distinction in Business.
“Then, I went further to study at Crossways College where I finished my Business Law; but I had kids at that time, so I took a break and started making music till date.”
He explained he did not own a laptop but was given one to use temporarily to upload videos on YouTube.
“I started making music in 2014 individually (sic), but now I’m signed to Marathon, a United Kingdom-based record label.
“I had a deal with Coca-Cola for my song, Issa Goal, in which I featured Olamide and Lil Kesh.
“I also had deals with Nike to participate in the Nigerian sportswear (sic).
“I’m in possession of a MacBook laptop, which I borrowed from a friend named Yad Isril in England, because while returning to Nigeria, I knew I was going to need a laptop to upload my music videos on YouTube and also to keep my exclusive songs.”
“I’m in possession of the laptop but I have no idea what is on it apart from my music videos.”
Naira Marley claimed the said laptop had no password and could be accessed by anyone.
He said he met Isril in a secondary school in England.
“He owns the butcher’s and an electronics shop in England. He is a British citizen, though his family is from Iraq.
I don’t have a personal laptop at the moment because I don’t need it.
“My management team handles everything I need to do on the laptop. I only use my iPhone X for everything I do,” he said.
