Nigerians React To Allegations Of Burna Boy Getting Speed Darlington Arrested

Published

on

Nigerians on social media are buzzing over reports that controversial content creator Speed Darlington has been arrested by Burna Boy, allegedly over defamation.

The saga began late on October 7, 2024, when an SOS was posted on Speed Darlington’s Instagram page, revealing that he had been missing for three days. The post called for anyone with information about his whereabouts to come forward.

The situation escalated when Speed Darlington’s mother revealed that her son went missing shortly after releasing a video about Nigerian musician Burna Boy. In an emotional plea, she begged Burna Boy to show mercy and release her son.

The controversy stems from a video in which Speed Darlington accused Burna Boy of having ties to American rapper Diddy, who was recently arrested for sex trafficking and other crimes. The video quickly gained attention, and following Speed Darlington’s alleged arrest, social media erupted with reactions, making the situation a trending topic across the country.

Fans and followers continue to speculate about the details surrounding the arrest as Nigerians await official statements from both parties.

One X user wrote, “So why is the woman crying? Abi she no see her pickin warm about the things him de talk Abi Burna Boy no get mama? Omoh, akpi get luck No be Ph him de because b4 police go arrive em head don open.. This is real life bro! You no go come challenge me i leave you go free”

“I like the way y’all are supporting Burna because of favoritism, abi you’re used to oppression Poverty is a bad thing, we can’t even hide it anymore we publicly lick asses Let’s maintain the same energy when its us or our favs in akpi’s shoes cos no one is above bully Ask dangote,”another X user wrote.

Another person commented, “Saying ‘Burna Boy is mid,’ ‘Burna Boy’s songs are wack,’ or ‘Burna Boy can’t perform’ are all opinions you’re entitled to. But claiming ‘Burna Boy is getting involved with Diddy’ crosses the line into defamation. Burna should release him and take legal action to sue him for everything he’s got.”
