Recall that right after Marley was arrested and arraigned in court, Daddy Showkey took to his Instagram to lay a curse on those prosecuting the singer, his reason being that they ignored the politicians who are robbing Nigeria blind.

Many people took his post as flagrant support for Naira Marley’s alleged activities, especially since Marley had controversially declared his support for cyberfraud.

Well, Showkey says it ain’t so in his camp.

He wrote:

“I appreciate the fact that a lot of people here came with divergent opinions, its very good and healthy for what I STAND for but please don’t let us get it twisted. I have not and would NEVER support CRIME in my life, not for any reason whatsoever. Remember, I am a thoroughbred (Ghetto Soldier) and a Custodian of the TRUTH. My take simply remains that “ The Way and manner that Young Boy was processed through his ordeals” raise eyebrow to other damning situations in our country but not a REASON for the new breeds to promote CRIMiNALiTY, ILLEGALITY, FRAUD and others! For ME, it’s A NO but let’s come together as a people and find better measures to END these anomalies in our LAND.”

Last week, Daddy Showkey begged the government to let the young singer go.

He voiceda a plea to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission to temper justice with mercy in the case of Naira Marley who is currently in their custody for his involvement in cybercrime popularly known as “Yahoo Yahoo”.

In a video post on his Instagram handle on Wednesday the Ajegunle born singer said: “Temper justice with mercy. This is just a young man growing up, lets not use his mistakes to spoil his career we all went through so many things growing up….we can use him as a spokesman to young people against crime @officialefcc maybe he will learn with this.”
