The National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons NAPTIP has officially summoned Darlington Okoye, popularly known as Speed Darlington, following claims of sexual misconduct involving a minor.
Recall the controversial singer sparked widespread outrage during an Instagram Live session in which he claimed to have had a sexual encounter with a 15-year-old girl.
The Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency reported the matter to NAPTIP, urging a thorough investigation into the disturbing claims.
In response to the backlash, Speed Darlington released a follow-up video where he stated that the comments were intended to promote a new song. He also issued an apology for any offence or discomfort caused by his remarks.
In a statement issued today, NAPTIP confirmed it has summoned Speed Darlington for questioning. The agency also warned that further action would be taken should he fail to comply.
