Counsel to singer Darlington Okoye also known as Speed Darlington, Stan Alieke, says the singer was re-arrested in Owerri, Imo state last night over allegations that he jumped his bail.
Recall that the singer was arrested in October over a petition filed against him by Burna Boy and subsequently granted bail.
Giving updates on his latest arrest, Alieke said Speed Darlington was given a date to report back to court but was unable to do so due to a medical emergency that required him to travel abroad for treatment.
He said the singer had arranged to return to Abuja after his performance at Owerri, in consultation with his lawyer and in liaison with police officers as it was never the singer’s intention to jump bail.
