Talent manager Teebillz has apologized for his controversial statements and support of Naira Marley following an online backlash.

However, Teebillz’s defense of Naira Marley and Zinoleesky sparked outrage among many Nigerians, who took to social media to express their disapproval. And it appears that the online backlash has prompted a change of heart from the talent manager.
In a recent development, he posted an apologetic statement on his social media accounts, acknowledging the insensitivity of his earlier post. He expressed regret for any offense caused and clarified that he did not intend to undermine anyone’s feelings or opinions.
Instead, he stated his desire to offer help and support to the young artists, emphasizing the role of mental health in the circumstances surrounding Mohbad’s passing.
In his words;
“I’m sincerely sorry for the insensitivity of my earlier post! I don’t mean to undermine anyone’s feelings or opinion… I just rather be of help to this young man than judging him based on association alongside being a product of his environment!!! MENTAL HEALTH played a major role in MOHBAD’s last days whether you agree with me or not! ZINO is definitely feeling the impact too mentally now!!! My heart also goes out to SOLID STAR…
