Speed Darlington returns online after gaining freedom
Meanwhile, TheTalk.NG earlier reported that Speed Darlington has returned to social media for the first time since he regained freedom.
TheTalk.NG reported that Speed Darlington was apprehended again in Owerri, Imo state, during a performance shortly after his first release. He was there for about two months until he was released on Tuesday, January 21, 2025.
For the first time since his release, the singer shared a new post on his Instagram page with a coded voiceover. Using images of bulls, Akpi, as he is fondly called, stated that when two bulls are fighting, one goes back not out of fear but to recharge and bounce back with more strength.
