Primeboy, a close childhood friend of the late Nigerian singer Mohbad, has initiated legal proceedings against Mohbad’s mother, Abosede Adeyemo, for alleged defamation.
The lawsuit, which has drawn significant public attention, claims that the singer’s mother made libelous and malicious statements during a media interview on 28 March 2024.
According to court documents, the controversial remarks were widely circulated by various news outlets, resulting in what Primeboy describes as severe damage to his reputation.

Primeboy is seeking N50 million in damages for what he terms “libelous, injurious, false, and malicious statements” made with the intent to defame him.
The lawsuit claims that these remarks have led the public to view him in a negative light, thereby harming his standing among right-thinking members of society.
Sources close to the case reveal that Primeboy’s legal team is confident of success, citing the widespread dissemination of the alleged defamatory comments and their potential impact on the singer’s prospects.
The case has triggered mixed reactions on social media, with some users expressing support for Primeboy’s pursuit of justice, while others believe the legal action could deepen existing tensions between the two families.
The lawsuit has also reignited conversations about the complexities surrounding Mohbad’s death and the relationships between those close to him. As the legal process unfolds, many will be watching closely to see how the court addresses the sensitive issues raised by this defamation claim.
For now, Primeboy remains resolute in his demand for compensation, maintaining that the lawsuit is essential to clear his name and restore his reputation within the Nigerian music industry.
