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.

Buhari’s Legacy Of Recessions By Fredrick Nwabufo

Fredrick Nwabufo ‘Why always Buhari?’ As it was in 1984 under General Buhari, so it is in 2016 and 2020 under President Buhari? Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs? If the recession of the 80s under Buhari was a conspiracy by economic and political factors, to what do we attribute that of his first coming as a civilian President — and now in his second coming? Why does pestilence scourge the land, hunger ravage the population and lives lost malevolently when Buhari presides over the country? Why always Buhari? Buhari’s undoing is his wonted predilection for hierarchising ethnicity, religion and loyalty above competence. Since 1999, no President has obtrusively shown a more nepotistic aspect than Buhari.
