Adeyanju stated that his client was arrested while performing at a show in Owerri, days after returning to the country earlier in the week.
He wrote, “Our client, Speed Darlington, a.k.a AKPI, has been arrested by the Nigeria Police in Owerri at his show upon return to Nigeria.”
The singer was arrested in Lagos and transferred to Abuja before being detained by the IGP’s Intelligence Response Team in the Guzape area of Abuja.
The musician, who was accused of cyberstalking Burna Boy, was released on bail days after his arrest.
