- Their interaction consists of a brief and polite exchange.

A recent video circulating online has sparked conversation after showing controversial music promoter Sam Larry respectfully greeting Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu during the 2025 Local Government chairmanship and councillorship elections.
In the brief clip, Sam Larry approaches the governor with folded hands and a deferential demeanor, engaging in a short, polite exchange.
While the encounter appeared routine, many social media users quickly tied the moment to the unresolved controversy surrounding the death of singer Mohbad (Ilerioluwa Aloba), a tragedy that continues to haunt the public. Sam Larry, though not legally indicted, has frequently been mentioned in connection to Mohbad’s struggles prior to his death on September 12, 2023, at age 27.
Past videos and publicized confrontations between the two have kept Sam Larry under intense scrutiny. Despite addressing the matter multiple times, including in a recent interview with activist VeryDarkMan (VDM), many remain skeptical.
In the interview, Sam Larry reiterated his stance, saying:
“He owed me for a show he didn’t attend. That was the issue. I never harmed him.”
However, his denial has not fully restored public confidence, especially as fresh investigations driven by activists and Mohbad’s family continue to unfold.
