NAPTIP Investigates Speed Darlington Over Shocking Teen Encounter Claim
The National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP) has kicked off an official investigation into controversial artist Speed Darlington, following his eyebrow-raising claim that he had a s*xual encounter with a 15-year-old girl.
The statement, which he made during a live stream, quickly lit up social media, drawing widespread condemnation. While the Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency (DSVA) took notice, it acknowledged that its hands were somewhat tied due to uncertainty over the location where the alleged incident occurred. The agency decided to escalate the matter by passing it over to NAPTIP for thorough investigation.
In a post shared via their official handle on X, NAPTIP confirmed that its Cybercrime Response Team had swung into action. The team is currently sifting through the viral footage from the Instagram live session, along with any other relevant material linked to the artist.
“NAPTIP’s Cybercrime Response Team has begun examining the disturbing video clip and additional videos by the same individual. We remain resolute in our mission to create a safe world where children can live free from any form of violence,” the agency stated.
The situation remains under scrutiny as authorities dig deeper into the details behind the shocking declaration. Whether Speed Darlington’s claim was a misfired attempt at attention or something more sinister, NAPTIP appears determined to find out.
