Human rights lawyer and popular influencer, Deji Adeyanju has said all efforts to get singer, Darlington Okoye, popularly known as Speed Darlington out of police custody have so far proved abortive.
It should be recalled that the singer was rearrested by the police on Tuesday during his show in Owerri, the Imo State capital for allegedly cyberstalking his colleague, Damini Ogulu, aka Burna Boy.
Adeyanju, the singer’s lawyer, stated on his official Facebook page on Wednesday night that the police had refused to release him on bail.
He wrote, “The Nigerian police brought our client Speed Darlington to Abuja from Owerri this evening and I just met him.
“They have refused to release him on bail over defamation of Burna Boy. Burna Boy, the Ojuelegba Fela sings about oppression but oppresses Akpi with the police.”
