After the Nigerian Singer, Azeez Fashola, known as Naira Marley was picked up yesterday, he has been fined N200,000 by an Abuja mobile court for violating COVID-19 protocols.

A few months ago, Grassroots.ng reported how Naira Marley hosted a concert in Abuja, in clear violation of COVID-19 directives.

The Magistrate Idayat Akanni who presided over the court session on Friday handed down the fine of the Lagos-based musician after he pleaded guilty to the charges filed against him.
