Thursday, December 26, 2024 - Lawyer, Deji Adeyanju, says that the police have refused to grant singer, Darlington Okoye popularly known as Speed Darlington, bail despite the bail order given by the Federal High Court in Abuja on Monday, December 23.
The singer has been in police detention since November 27, when he was
re-arrested by the Nigerian police in Owerri, Imo State for allegedly jumping
bail. He was initially arrested in October following a petition written against
him by his colleague Burna Boy.
Findings by LIB show that the singer was granted unconditional bail and
that the only thing needed to do is for his legal team to get the ruling to the
police legal department for them to minute on it and then send it to the Force
Investigation Department FID where the singer is being detained, for
compliance. The singer's legal team has since sent the court order to the
police department but is yet to get any response or compliance.
Tomorrow December 27 will make it a month since Speed was re-arrested by
the police.
