Speed Darlington Granted Bail After 1 Month In Detention

After being detained by the authorities for over a month, rapper Speed Darlington whose real name is Darlington Achakpo—was released on bail.

The court has granted Speed Darlington bail, according to an Instagram post from his attorney Stanley Alieke. Without providing much details, he said,

“The court has granted Apki bail.”

On November 27, while playing at a show in Owerri, Imo State, the rapper was detained for allegedly abusing Burna Boy, an Afrofusion artist.

Despite the difficulties, Speed Darlington’s attorney, Deji Adeyanju, had previously said that the singer will either be released on bail or arraigned within 48 hours.

“Our FREP application for Speed Darlington a.k.a has been granted by the court. He is to be arraigned within 48 hours or released. Issues around injustice may take time but justice will always prevail,” he wrote.

Live with Purpose, Love with Passion. Remember to be happy
