My Rights Were Violated By The Police – Speed Darlington on recent arrest

After being arrested and detained for defamation, controversial Nigerian singer and content creator Speed Darlington has spoken up about his experience. In a viral clip circulating on October 17, 2024, Darlington detailed his experience in police custody, alleging that his rights were violated.

He said, “The police violated my civil rights and my human rights and denied me the opportunity to talk to my family and my lawyer. The rule says I can only be detained for two days yet I was held for four without any opportunity to speak to my people.”

“It seems like I’m not on social media like I used to be but what doesn’t kill me makes me stronger. I am stronger now, you feel me? 17 arrests in the USA plus this one making 18 arrests, nothing mega. I have been to the bottomless pit where there is no hope if you don’t know anybody, your own don finish,” Darlington added.

Details of his arrest emerged after an SOS was posted on his Instagram page on October 7, 2024, which stated that he had been missing for 3 days and asked anyone with information to come forward.

Speed Darlington was arrested for defamation because of a video he made about Burna Boy where he alleged that he had affiliations with American rapper Diddy, who was recently arrested for sex trafficking and other crimes. The video gained traction and following Speed Darlington’s arrest, he quickly became the talk of the town online.

Things took a different turn when Speed Darlington’s mother revealed that her son was declared missing after making a video about Nigerian musician Burna Boy. In the video, she was seen begging the singer to have mercy on her son and kindly release him.

Speaking in an Instagram live session, the first time upon his release, Speed Darlington disclosed that he does not have resentment towards the Grammy winner, emphasising that he was tortured by the police.

“Let me just be direct, I have no beef with Burna Boy. Burna Boy and I are not quarreling, nor are we, enemies. It is the Nigerian police that did me dirty. They are still withholding my phone, and I do not have access to it.

“Burna Boy felt like I was spoiling something for him. The amount of effort Burna Boy put into this case. I feel like I am even more successful than him,” he said.

The dancer alleged that Burna Boy offers a lot of money to bloggers to promote him, maintaining that he is ahead of him in the industry.

“He pays big money to blogs to push him, but I’m way bigger than him. But you, on the outside looking in, would not see it. I am stronger than Burna Boy. Back in 2016, they used to call me gay because I usually attended events alone, and they thought I was gay. The same thing happened to Burna, and now he is calling the police.”

Speed Darlington reiterated that he is bigger than Burna Boy, acknowledging that he was not abreast of the cybercrime laws
