A former in-house discjockey of Marlian Records, Matthew Aderoju, aka Splash, has broken his silence on his experience with the record label owner, Naira Marley and his crew members.

He alleged that they planned to make him go mad by putting something in his food.

He shared his story while speaking with popular Nollywood actress, Iyabo Ojo, who visited his family house today, September 19.

Reports went viral on social media some days ago when his mum came out to demand justice for him.

The mum said her son lost his mind while he was working for Naira Marley.

While recounting his experience, DJ Splash said trouble started for him when he told Naira Marley of his intention to start making music aside from the DJ job he was doing.

He said the other members of the gang felt threatened that he would become greater and make more money than other artistes.

He claimed he overheard them planning to poison him or make him go mad. He said he took precautions by going out to buy his own food while in the house.

He further claimed that Naira Marley never gave him money while he was with him.

‘’They tried their best to make me go mad. They put something in my food”

He said Naira Marley’s mum and other family members were invited to the Marlian house where the singer told them that he, DJ Splash, was planning to veer into singing and that he knew he would do well.
