(In Nigeria) Speed Darlington Issues Apology Following Outrage Over Viral Video Allegation Involving Underage Girl

 

Speed Darlington issued an apology after a viral video showed him admitting to sleeping with a 15-year-old girl.

He claimed the confession was a publicity stunt, saying, “I’m an artist. We need controversy. It is how we eat.” 

Despite this, the apology failed to calm public outrage, especially as fresh scrutiny followed the disturbing content of his initial remarks.

Shortly after the apology, a throwback video resurfaced showing neighbours accusing Speed Darlington of improper behaviour with a 16-year-old girl. 

The re-emergence of the clip further fuelled concerns about his past conduct. 

Adding to the backlash, his former lawyer Stan Alieke posted cryptic proverbs on Instagram, implying that Speed ignored legal advice and brought disgrace upon himself. 

The post suggested that self-destructive behaviour often precedes downfall.
