Controversial Nigerian singer, Speed Darlington has broken his silence after release from prolonged incarceration.

Darlington was first arrested for alleged cyber-stalking after attributing Burna Boy’s Grammy award to his connections with the embattled American rapper, Diddy.

Diddy whose legal battles with FBI made headlines, is currently facing multiple sex trafficking and rape charges.

After his initial release on bail in October, Darlington insisted that he would not cease his public criticisms until Burna Boy compensated him.

Following the development, he was rearrested during a performance in Imo State on November 27, 2024, and held in Kuje prison for an extended period.

Expressing his frustration to secure his release in a video on Instagram, the singer’s lawyer accused Burna Boy of bribing the police to keep Darlington behind bars despite being granted bail by the Federal High Court on December 23.

Darlington was finally released on January 21 2025.

But reacting to his critics release, Burna Boy in a now deleted post on Instagram, warned that Darlington would return back to jail if he ever misbehaves again.

“There are 3 reasons why I stopped wearing wigs and human hairs: some human hairs are sacrifice to demons, deities and other unknown gods.

“A lot of women in some countries like Asia, they go to the temple to sacrifice their hair to their god, believing that their gods will purify and cleanse them. They gave their hair as a form of getting rid of bad luck, poverty and every other thing stressing them and they started life anew.

“Those working in the temple take their hair and sell it off to the European market or to different big vendors like Ali Baba, Ali Express and different brands. And we black women go to those websites to buy these hairs at hundreds of pounds.

“We are wearing someone’s bad luck on our heads. You may not believe in their god but as a Christian, that works against what I believe in, because we see them as demons and deities.”

Another headache for Portable as police declare him wanted

Published

on

The Ogun State Police Command has declared Habeeb Okikiola Olalomi, popularly known as “Portable”, wanted for his alleged involvement in a violent attack on government officials carrying out their lawful duties.

A statement released by the spokesperson of the command, SP Omolola Odutola, says on February 5, 2025, at about 1000hrs, officials from the Ogun State Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development, Ota Zonal Office named TPL Onabanjo Abidemi, TPL Raymond Lateef and TPL Ridwan Oyero Akinlesi were conducting an enforcement exercise at Oke-Osa, Tigbo Ilu Ota, when they encountered an elderly man, later identified as Portable’s father, at Odogwu Bar in the area. Upon identifying themselves and requesting the approved building plan, the father informed them that his son was unavailable.

‘’However, moments later, Portable, armed with a firearm and other dangerous weapons, led a gang of nine thugs in a violent attack on the unarmed officials. The enforcement officers sustained various bodily injuries but managed to escape and reported the incident to the Ota Area Command, which subsequently escalated the case to the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID) for further action.

Nine accomplices were arrested, but Portable fled the scene and has since gone into hiding. Multiple formal invitations were sent to him, requesting his presence at the Ogun State Police Command Headquarters, Eleweran, Abeokuta, which he deliberately ignored without cause or legal representation.

‘’For any relevant information, kindly report to the nearest police station or contact the Ogun State Police Command through its official communication channels or police public relations department.”
