 Breaching Coronavirus Guidelines: Court Slams N200,000 Fine On Nigerian Musician, Naira Marle.

 Four-count charge was brought against the artiste by the prosecuting team, which he denied.

A Federal Capital Territory mobile court in Abuja on Friday imposed a N200,000 fine on Nigerian musician, Azeez Fashola popularly known as Naira Marley, for violating the Presidential Task Force guidelines on COVID-19.
