Speed Darlington Ignites Fresh Outrage over Controversial Video: “Na FBI Go Declare Am Wanted Next”

• a Speed Darlington claimed he ditched Lagos girls because they’re too focused on money and don’t show genuine love like American women do
• The controversial singer had gone underground after being summoned by NAPTIP over a viral video
• The video, as expected, has set the internet buzzing, with many divided over the singer’s hot take

Controversial Nigerian singer, Speed Darlington, has found himself in another controversy online weeks after fleeing the country amidst a manhunt by the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP).

The eccentric artist was declared wanted by NAPTIP after he failed to honour their invitation regarding a now-viral video that allegedly violated public decency laws.

Rather than face the agency, Speedy took the next flight out, straight to the United States.

But from his self-imposed exile, the singer is doing anything but lying low.

Speedy shades Lagos girls

In a recent video posted online, the singer was seen strutting the streets of New York, flaunting his newfound freedom—and his opinions.

He said unapologetically:

“I left Lagos girls for New York girls. I thought they were better. These people dey do love. Our own girls na just ‘give me money, give me money"

The statement, as expected, has set the internet buzzing, with many divided over the singer’s hot take.

Speed Darlington sends warning to NAPTIP

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that Speed Darlington reacted after he was declared wanted by NAPTIP. He sternly warned NAPTIP to pull down their post and that he would not honour their invitation.

The controversial singer also dared the agency, stating that they didn’t have evidence, and asked who the complainant was.

He repeatedly asked who he had bullied and added that he didn’t call any names in his video. In the viral recording, the artist said that NAPTIP should pay him N2.5 million, as that was his charge for an appearance.
