The Nigeria Police Force is reportedly preparing to file new charges against musician Speed Darlington, known as Akpi, including allegations of supporting and funding separatist movements. This comes in light of Akpi’s previous claims of receiving protection from separatists in the Southeast.
Sources indicate that his ongoing detention, despite a court order for his release, may not be solely linked to his controversial statements. There are suggestions that external factors, including connections to separatist groups and the influence of Afrobeat superstar Burna Boy, could also play a role.
Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
