Naira Marley at 19 was wanted for alleged crimes committed in the UK (screenshot)

Popular hip-hop act Azeez Fashola popularly known as Naira Marley is once again the topic of discussion online following an old report that surfaced about his criminal activities in the past.

It appears the Nigerian singer who is currently being remanded in prison by the Economic Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), is not entirely unfamiliar with criminal cases.

A report by a foreign news outlet identified as News Shopper, reveals that the Nigerian music act was listed among some of the most wanted faces for crimes in the UK by the Lewisham police, way back in 2014.

Marley, who was 19 at the time, was particularly wanted by the police in connection to a crime incident in Surrey Canal Road, New Cross, on March 5.

Recall that the EFCC preferred an 11-count charge bordering on advanced fee fraud on the Am I A Yahoo Boy crooner. Marley pleaded not guilty during his court appearance on Monday, May 20.

In a related story, Legit.ng earlier reported that a Nigerian man has threatened to take the lives of PPRO Dolapo Badmus and singer Ruggedman, should Naira Marley be sentenced to jail.

The man said even if it takes him days, weeks, months or years, he will make it his life’s mission to accomplish his wish.
