Lagos, Nigeria - Speed Darlington, a popular Nigerian singer, remains in police custody despite meeting his bail conditions, according to his lawyer, Deji Adeyanju.
Adeyanju alleged that the police have refused to release Speed Darlington or take him before a judge to face trial, sparking concerns about the singer's safety and the Nigerian justice system's effectiveness.
Speed Darlington was initially arrested in October following a petition filed by fellow singer Burna Boy. He was re-arrested in November in Owerri for allegedly jumping bail. Adeyanju claims Burna Boy orchestrated the recent arrest.

4. Alleged instigation by Burna Boy.
Reaction
Deji Adeyanju condemned the police's actions, stating, "The Nigerian Police Force's refusal to release Speed Darlington is a gross violation of his rights. We demand immediate release and a fair trial."
