On Thursday, January 23, 2025, popular Nigerian TikToker Oloba Salo, also known as Salo, publicly accused singer Naira Marley of shooting him in Lekki, Lagos. This allegation comes three months after Salo was hospitalized following a shooting incident in October 2024, where he was injured by multiple gunshots to his legs.
In a viral TikTok video, Salo broke his silence and claimed that Naira Marley and his associates were responsible for the attack. “I just chose to be quiet all this while. It was Naira Marley and his boys that shot me in Lekki. I have the evidence. They shot three bullets at me. He can come and shoot me again,” Salo stated. He also dismissed claims that he was seeking attention, asserting, “To people saying I just want to trend, is it Marley, using past glory, that I will use to trend?”
At the time of this report, Naira Marley had not responded to the accusations.
