Following the court order remanding Naira Marley in prison, Daddy Showkey has verbally attacked the federal government, saying the singer was subjected to ‘ill-treatment’.

In an Instagram post, the veteran musician can be seen in a video where he said Marley poses no threat to the society and as such deserves a second chance.

The veteran ‘Galala’ crooner stressed that the real “threats to the society” are left untouched while Marley is unjustly treated like a “slave”.

“Wetin the boy do wey warrant all this security. The boy na threat to our society? All the people wey be threat to our society, dem never arrest them. Dem never treat them like this. This boy na small boy wey just dey grow. All of us get wetin we don do before, you own go come one day,” Showkey ranted in Nigerian pidgin.

“We don talk say make we give this boy another chance, una no gree. See how una dey carry the boy go court as if na him bomb Nigeria. Work no dey the society, job no dey. Every day we say start vocational school, una no gree, wetin una want make poor man pikin do?”
