Musician Darlington Okoye, popularly known as Speed Darlington, has been released from custody, according to a statement shared on X by activist lawyer Deji Adeyanju on Tuesday.
The singer’s release comes after an Abuja court recently granted him bail. Prior to this, Mr. Okoye had lodged a formal complaint with the Deputy Inspector-General of Police, Dasuki Galadanchi, of the Force Intelligence Bureau, over what he described as his unwarranted continued detention.
