The National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP) has declared Nigerian entertainer Darlington Okoye, popularly known as Speed Darlington, wanted.

This comes as the controversial entertainer is facing serious allegations of rape, cyberbullying, and cyberstalking.

The agency announced this via its official Instagram handle @officialnaptip on Friday.

“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 statement read.

NAPTIP had earlier invited the musician for questioning following his claim of having sex with a 15-year-old girl during a live Instagram video, but he failed to honour the agency’s invitation.

In a letter signed by the agency’s Head of Cybercrime Response Team, Ngamaraju Mangzha, in May, NAPTIP asked the singer to appear at its Abuja head office at 09:00 a.m. on May 30, 2025, but the singer failed to show up at the agency’s Wuse Zone 5 office.

Recall that the singer sparked outrage on Children’s Day after a livestream where he claimed he had once slept with a 15-year-old virgin.

The clip quickly went viral, triggering widespread outrage from viewers and women’s-rights groups who accused him of confessing to statutory rape.
