He once declared that ‘Am I A Yahoo Boy’ on Instagram to his fans. He once claimed and justified that internet fraud is a way of getting what the whites did to Africans in the past so it’s a way for getting what belongs to them.
On 10 May 2019, the EFCC arrested Naira Marley alongside his friends Zlatan Ibile Tiamiu Kayode, Adewunmi Moses, and Abubakar Musa. They were arrested a day after he released the video for the controversial single “Am I A Yahoo Boy”.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) released Zlatan Ibile a few days later, and three others but kept the ‘Marlian President’ in their custody due to overwhelming evidence against him which he pled not guilty.
One of his highly-controversial tracks, Soapy accompanied with some dance steps also played a bad influence on the youths including toddlers and children who are tagged ‘Marlians’.
