ABN TV recalls that Speedy was recently detained by the police over alleged cyberstalking of fellow musician, Damini Ogulu, popularly called Burna Boy.
Speedy had in a video shared in his handle associated Burna Boy with disgraced American rapper Sean Diddy Combs, questioning the credibility of his Grammy Award.
The musician was then visited by Adeyanju who disclosed that he had seen a petition written against Speedy by afrobeat musician, Burna Boy.
Adeyanju stressed 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 said.
