BREAKING: Nigerian Police Arrest Musician, Speed Darlington During Show In Imo State

November 27, 2024

 

The reasons for the Darlington arrest remained unclear.

Human rights lawyer, Deji Adeyanju, has confirmed that his client and musician, Darlington Okoye, more commonly called Speed Darlington, also known as AKPI, has been arrested by the Nigerian police in Owerri, Imo State. 

In a statement posted on his official Facebook page, Adeyanju wrote, “Our client Speed Darlington a.k.a AKPI has been arrested by the Nigerian police in Owerri at his show upon return to Nigeria.”

He added that Darlington’s arrest occurred during his return to Nigeria for a show.

The reasons for the Darlington arrest remained unclear.

Meanwhile, SaharaReporters recently reported that the Nigerian police detained Darlington over alleged cyberstalking of fellow musician, Damini Ogulu, more commonly known as Burna Boy. 

SaharaReporters had reported that Speed Darlington was arrested and detained at the notorious centre of the IGP’s Intelligence Response Team in the Guzape area of Abuja.

The musician was then visited by Adeyanju who also told SaharaReporters that he had seen a petition written against Darlington by afrobeat musician, Burna Boy.

Darlington had been arrested in Lagos and tossed around many police formations in Lagos before he was taken to detention in Abuja by the IRT team who accused him of cyberstalking Burna Boy.

Adeyanju had noted that there was nothing to the petition to warrant Darlington’s arrest. 

“I have met Speed Darlington” and he’s in good spirits, we are working to get him released on bail as soon as possible,” Adeyanju had added. 

A police ACP investigating the case told Adeyanju that the police could not release a copy of the petition to him but he let the lawyer read and digest the content.
