- The National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP) has officially declared Nigerian entertainer Darlington Okoye, popularly known as Speed Darlington, wanted over serious allegations including rape, cyberbullying, and cyberstalking.
- On May 28, 2025, during an Instagram Live session, Speed Darlington claimed he had sex with a 15-year‑old girl—sparking nationwide outrage
Controversial singer and internet sensation, Speed Darlington, has been declared wanted by NAPTIP over serious allegations including r@pe, cyberbullying, and cyberstalking.
The agency made this known via a public notice, urging anyone with information about his whereabouts to come forward.
This comes after Speedy sparked outrage during an Instagram Live where he claimed he slept with a 15-year-old girl. The video quickly went viral, drawing the attention of the Lagos State Domestic & Sexual Violence Agency, who escalated the case to NAPTIP.
Despite being summoned to appear at their Abuja office, the singer failed to show up and even tried to reschedule, a move the agency rejected. After several warnings and missed deadlines, NAPTIP has now launched a manhunt for him.
Speed Darlington later claimed the underage sex confession was “just cruise” to promote his new song, but the agency says the matter is no joke and falls under serious criminal offences.
