Young embattled Nigerian musician Naira Marley is said to have filed for an out-of-court settlement after he was given a last chance to make an appearance in court over car theft allegations.
In a report sighted online, the lawyers representing Naira Marley posited that the singer’s two brothers Idris Fashola, 18; Babatunde Fashola, 24; and their cousin, Kunle Obere, 22, the four-count charge of conspiracy, stealing, assault and obstructing the police against their clients might be dropped before the next hearing of the case if the talks between them and the complainant’s lawyers is successful.
The rapper’s counsel, Mr Awokulehin Ayodeji who spoke to The Nation disclosed that the Police are not against a peaceful resolution of the matter.
He said;
“We hope that an agreement will be reached before the next adjourned date. The police have no problem with an out of court settlement.”
