The National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons has declared Nigerian entertainer, Darlington Okoye, popularly known as Speed Darlington, wanted in connection with alleged offences including rape, cyberbullying, and cyberstalking.
NAPTIP made this known via its official Instagram handle @officialnaptip on Friday afternoon.
It read, “WANTED BY NAPTIP. Darlington Okoye, aka Speed Darlington, is wanted in connection with alleged offences including rape, cyberbullying, and cyberstalking.
“Anyone with credible information on his whereabouts is urged to contact NAPTIP immediately. Call: 07030000203, info@naptip.gov.ng.”
The notice comes a month after Okoye failed to honour the agency’s invitation for questioning over his claim of having sex with a 15-year-old girl during a live Instagram video.
NAPTIP had summoned Okoye over his statement in a now-viral Instagram video.
It asked the singer to appear at its Abuja head office at 09:00 a.m. on May 30, 2025.
However, our correspondent who visited the agency’s headquarters at the time confirmed that the singer did not show up at NAPTIP’s Wuse Zone 5 office.
Later, NAPTIP said it received an official response from Okoye, who claimed he could not visit. He insisted on appearing on June 26.
In his response, Okoye said, “Hello, I will not be able to come in today. This is very sudden and urgent for me. I already have commitments and responsibilities.
“I suggest you reschedule for next month, June 26. I will be in Abuja that day.”
Our correspondent, who was at NAPTIP’s headquarters on June 26, observed that the singer failed to appear.
