Following the arrest of singer Arondizuogu Akpi, aka Speed Darlington, on Saturday, his mother, Miss Queen, has come out to appeal to fellow singer Burna Boy to please forgive her son.
Recall that Speed Darlington’s neighbours, on Monday, came out to report on social media that the singer had been missing since Saturday.
Findings by CONVERSEER reveal that Akpi has not posted on his Instagram for a while, including on his status.
Netizens on social media on Monday called out Burna Boy, accusing him of being involved in the disappearance of Darlington.
On his X account on Tuesday morning, Burna Boy posted “7 is Real,” adding in another post that, “Who’s missing?”
