Controversial Nigerian singer and comedian, Darlington Okoye, widely known as Speed Darlington, has been released on bail following his arrest and detention. The arrest came after a petition by afrobeat star Damini Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy, who accused Speed Darlington of cyberstalking.
Darlington, also known by his stage name “Akpi,” was released after meeting the bail conditions set by the police at the Inspector General of Police Intelligence Response Team’s (IRT) office in Guzape, Abuja. The musician’s lawyer, Deji Adeyanju, confirmed his release.
Speed Darlington had been arrested in Lagos last Friday, then transferred to various police units in the state, and eventually detained in Abuja by the IRT on cyberstalking charges. Adeyanju revealed that after reviewing Burna Boy’s petition, there appeared to be no concrete justification for Darlington’s arrest. Despite not being given a copy of the petition, Adeyanju was allowed to read and understand its contents.
Darlington’s mother, referred to as Queen, had raised alarm over her son’s disappearance, accusing Burna Boy and his team of orchestrating the arrest. In a tearful video appeal, she pleaded for his release, claiming her son had been missing for days after making a video mentioning Burna Boy and Diddy.
Speed Darlington’s detention and subsequent release have sparked widespread reactions, especially on social media, with supporters calling for transparency in the case.
Popular content creator Peller calls out Father for the leaked video showing him in bed with another man, showing they were either having fun or simply just friends, but people on social media would not let the video slide.
In a video made by Peller, he said, “I’m tired of all my family members suddenly wanting to join social media. I can’t believe people are now calling my father gay just because he was lying on a bed with another man doesn’t automatically mean he’s gay.
People are too quick to jump to conclusions and at this point, I’m tired.
“Dad, how many times did i call you to stop sleeping with your fellow man? This is what my mom has been complaining about for years, and you haven’t changed.
Don’t you know this is affecting me as your son? Most of my fans have been criticizing me on TikTok that my father is gày. I’m not happy about this at all”

Popular content creator, Jarvis gives reasons why she shaved ‘gorimapa’ during wedding rites
Content creator, Amadou Elizabeth Aminata, popularly known as Jarvis, has dismissed reports suggesting that she shaved her hair ‘gorimapa’ as part of the traditional rites for her wedding.
In a video shared online, Jarvis explained that she opted for the hairstyle simply because her stylist asked her to cut her hair, stressing that it had nothing to do with any marriage ritual.
She said, “The wedding is finally over and I’m super happy. I’m proud of myself and my husband.
“For those of you speculating that I barbed my hair for my wedding as part of some tribal marriage rites, shut up.
“I barbed my hair because I wanted my hair installation to be perfect. That is what my hair stylist recommended because I have a very stubborn hair. Most of my hair like my frontal has not been sitting pretty because of my front hair.”
Jarvis and fellow TikTok star, Peller tied the knot traditionally on August 1, 2026.
The couple held their white wedding on Saturday, August 8, 2026.
