Deji Adeyanju, a prominent lawyer and activist, has confirmed the arrest of rapper Speed Darlington, who has been reported missing since Friday.
Adeyanju disclosed that the rapper was arrested in Lagos and transferred to the Force Headquarters in Abuja.
Speaking in a series of posts on his X handle on Tuesday, the lawyer who did not give details, claimed that the arrest was based on a formal complaint from singer Burna Boy.
“We just spent the last 30mins with Speed Darlington and he narrated how he was arrested in Lagos on Friday last week, moved around and eventually brought to Abuja. The petition against him was written by Burna Boy we can confirm.”
This happened just a few hours after Burna Boy and his group were charged by Speed Darlington’s mother for her son’s disappearance.
In a previous social media video, Darlington questioned Burna Boy’s Grammy award’s legitimacy, connecting the chaotic American singer Diddy with Burna Boy.
