A dramatic video has surfaced online showing the moment a man stormed the stage and attempted to attack Nigerian singer Naira Marley during a live performance in Lagos.

The incident, which has quickly gone viral on social media, occurred while Naira Marley was performing at a packed venue. In the clip, a male spectator can be seen rushing toward the artist in what appeared to be an aggressive manner before being swiftly restrained by security personnel.

According to multiple sources, the attacker is believed to be a devoted fan of the late singer Mohbad, who was formerly signed to Naira Marley’s record label, Marlian Music. Mohbad’s death in 2023 sparked widespread controversy, with many fans pointing fingers at the label and its associates — though no conclusive evidence has publicly implicated Naira Marley in any wrongdoing.

Reactions online have been sharply divided. While some users condemned the attempted assault and called for better security at shows, others questioned the authenticity of the incident, speculating that the attack might have been staged to generate publicity or sway public opinion.

As of now, Naira Marley has not publicly commented on the incident. Meanwhile, fans and observers continue to debate both the motive behind the attack and the potential fallout.
