Lil Smart also added that Naira Marley wasn’t present when $300 was stolen from him and he made a mistake mentioning the Marlian Music boss’ name.
He said:
“He was my ex-boss, his boys were at the scene so that was why I thought it might have come from him.”
Speaking further, Lil Smart said he now feels very bad for the mistake he made and has learned to report to the police instead of making claims without proof on social media. In his words:
“I feel very bad and now I’ve seen my mistake and I can correct myself and fellow Nigerians that you don’t come out to post what you don’t have proof of or what you’re not sure of and you should just go to the nearest police station and report instead of coming online.”
