Burna Boy Drops A Statement On Speed Darlington Case by Seunpapa65(op): 5:51pm On Oct 09, 2024
“Seeing your mom on her knees begging me to release you got me emotional. I cherish all the mom’s out there.

For over 20 years of life, I worked hard, dropping classics and getting zero attention. Many told me to give up and chase a better career. Many made mockery of me and said music wasn’t my thing.

Today after so many years of putting in work, I’m a successful artist and one unfortunate dude somewhere is on the internet, saying abominable things about my career simply because he has a mouth.

If not of your mama, you would’ve stayed in jail for the exact number of years I stayed underground as an artiste. Go home to Mommy and sin no more”

If this had happened in the United States — and I bet since Burna boy became popular in the U.S.A., he has received similar hate comments from people in the U.S. by the way— would Burna boy have resorted to the same or similar tactics of abusing his privilege as he did against this boy in Nigeria? Would he have attempted to illegally use the U.S.A. police to illegally abduct a U.S. Citizen against the law? undecided

This Burna boy chap should be ashamed of himself abeg! His fans in civilized climes — United States, UK, South Africa, etc., —should note here how their star is nothing but a dictator himself. He owes that boy and his mother an apology for his trampling the boy's right to freedom by law. undecided

Doesn't matter where it happened, Speed is lucky Burna listened to his mom's plee. There's a limit to trolling. Speed is a very public person, Burna might overlook it if an unknown person posts something like that to troll him. Man, Speed posted something so terrible. And you don't make such posts anyhow.

If it were the US, Burna would have sued that loud mouth down to his last boxers .

Nothing wrong with suing him! But Burna did not sue him— no news of that ever happening even as we speak —, instead, Burna used his status in Nigeria to illegally abduct him. That is the problem here. undecided

And I hope people in the U.S.A., and other countries where he goes out to perform are watching cause Burna should not get away with this despicable act. undecided

Online defamation falls under criminal libel and is a felony .

Besides, Burna's image is tied to his career .

For that IPOB lout to open his bucal cavity and spew shit about Burna boy being Puff's fck boi was more than damaging.


As Burna rightly stated , he spent 20ys building his career to this point and for one idiot hoping to trend and spew his hate towards him was a call for all out warfare.

Tell that idiot to know when to avoid the internet when he is high on something.
Re: Burna Boy Drops A Statement On Speed Darlington Case by ChiefJusticeFuc: 6:30pm On Oct 09, 2024
If you think about it for a second, it seems this Speed whatever was simply projecting his own gayness and how he would have dropped to hold his knees for Puff so as to get ahead in the game.

It's always projection with his ilk.

I so hate hate hate how Nigerians open their mouths — waaahhh —in Ignorance to spew nonsense every chance they get! undecided

Defamation can only be ascertained by the court and this after the Plaintiff has filed a suit in the courts against the defendant, not before. Burna has yet to file a case and appear in court regarding this issue. Your courts have yet to prove it is in fact defamation so it is nonsensical to assert that it is definitely that. So all this you are yammering means absolutely nothing! undecided

In Nigeria , defamation isn't a civil matter but a criminal one bordering on libel.

Stop using foriegn laws to interprete Nigerian laws.

In Nigeria, defamation is a civil matter aka a misdemeanor. Make una at least dey try visit the details of una laws before una open mouth yakata to talk the one wey una no know.
By the provisions of Section 375 of the Criminal Code Act, any person who publishes any defamatory matter is guilty of a misdemeanor and is liable to imprisonment for one year; and any person who publishes any defamatory matter knowing it to be false, is liable to imprisonment for two years.

The way you lack sense is very disturbing ....

Thanks to Burna for respecting and responding in positive way towards a Mother's plea by releasing that attention seeker.
God bless you more

When did misdemeanor become a jailable offense ?


You saw the sentencing attached to it and which can only come out from a criminal suit brought to a court of competent jurisdiction by the state on behalf of the petitioner.

Are you ret@rded?

Do civil suits end up with a criminal conviction ?

Nice one from burna. That low budget Portable wannabe artist is as foolish as they come. Hopefully, he has learnt his lessons.

If that Akpi is not creating and uploading tribal bigotry video on social media, he would be defaming hard working entertainers that are like 10,000 times bigger than he is.

The foolish Simon Ekpa would likely be already preparing video to say he was the one that made Burna release the IPOB apologist called Akpi. The mad man said he gave burna boy 48 hours 😂

See this one! I just quoted what is written in your Nigerian Law —Section 375 of the Criminal Code Act and you think arguing with me will somehow change what is stated in the Law? These questions of yours can be easily answered for you by Google, so run along, please! undecided

How?

For not standing aside and watch one lout damage his image and career?

Do you know the severity of what this Speed of a guy said?

Are you aware that Puff is facing serious criminal charges for sex trafficking and that the authorities in the US are building a wider case to include other celebs who attended his Hollywood parties ?

Do you know that by trying to link Burna to Puff's predatory sexual lifestyle ,he is making Burna a target of FBI investigation ?
Re: Burna Boy Drops A Statement On Speed Darlington Case by SmartPolician:
I don't like Speed Darlington because he is a poorly raised child. However, it's unfair to have a system where strong men oppress the weak men.

Tinubu changed Nigeria's National Anthem recently. I hope he really understands the last stanza and works towards making it a reality. Singing a national anthem without living by what it depicts is self-deceit.

Burna Boy should've taken him to court and followed due process while dealing with him. I hope Speed Darlington learns his lessons because that boy no wan get sense.

See what you highlighted in bold text and tell me how a criminal code is now a civil issue.

You no get sense at all or you dey high right now?

This is abuse of power, and the police is a willing tool for corruption as always!

Why not sue him to court if you think you have a case of defamation against him? Who and what gave you the right to incarcerate someone? Are you the court? Is police the court?

Mad country with mad people!

Kobojunkie I hope you have learnt something today.

Criminal case are filed by the police or the state Prosecutor's office.

Burna had the options of filing a civil case over defamation or pushing a criminal case.

Burna chose to use the criminal petition since speed no get bar to settle law suit.

Burna humiliated him within the very limits of the laws of the land.
