A video of Nigerian singer Abiola Ahmed Akinbiyi popularly known as Bella Shmurda rejecting a portrait of him and late singer Ilerioluwa Oladimeji Aloba popularly known as Mohbad given to him by a fan has been trending online.
This is coming after Bella Shmurda celebrated his late friend and colleague Mohbad on his posthumous birthday a few days ago. In a video making the rounds online, a fan presented a portrait to Bella Shmurda on stage during his High Tension Rave in Ibadan yesterday. The “Philo” crooner thanked the artist, collected the frame, looked at it, and returned it to the fan saying he could not keep such a portrait in his house. However, Bella Shmurda promised to compensate the artist with some money before leaving the show.

Netizens seeing the video said Bella Shmurda should have collected the portrait from the artist while some said the singer may still be grieving the death of his friend and he doesn’t want to come in contact with anything that may trigger him.
