On June 27, 2025, the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP) officially declared Speed Darlington (Darlington Okoye) wanted over allegations of rape, cyberbullying, and cyberstalking following his widely shared video claiming he had sex with a 15‑year‑old girl . The agency also noted he failed to appear for questioning after being summoned on May 30 and again disregarding a rescheduled date . --- Speed Darlington’s Reaction Speed Darlington has flatly denied that NAPTIP has any right to label him “wanted.” He said: > “Thanks for the heads up, but I’m not worried. They have no right to declare me wanted. My lawyer has already sent it to me. They just want to embarrass themselves. My lawyer will handle it.” He insists his legal team is taking charge and downplays the notice as an overstep by the agency. --- The Background The uproar began in May 2025, when Speed Darlington admitted on a live Instagram video to having sex with a 15‑year‑old, claiming it was all a publicity stunt to boost his new song . Critics, human rights groups, and the Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency reacted with outrage, prompting the matter’s escalation to NAPTIP . --- So, where things stand now: | Status | Detail | |---|---| | NAPTIP action | Formally declared him wanted; urging public assistance to locate him | | Speed's stance | Refusing to acknowledge the declaration, entrusting matters to his lawyer | | Potential next steps | NAPTIP is reportedly coordinating with other agencies to prevent flight and enforce compliance | --- Bottom Line Speed Darlington is currently publicly wanted by NAPTIP, but he’s dismissing the move and relying on legal intervention. The agency, however, is not backing down and continues to push for his appearance to respond to the charges.
