‘No mercy next time’ — Burna Boy warns after Darlington’s prison release

Grammy-winning artiste Burna Boy has seemingly issued a cautionary message to Speed Darlington following his recent release from prison.

Darlington was arrested on November 27 while performing at a show in Owerri, Imo state. He was accused of cyberstalking Burna Boy, the Grammy-winning artiste.

Darlington had taunted Burna Boy over his affiliation with the embattled US rapper Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ who is facing multiple charges for sexual exploitation and human trafficking.

He asked Burna Boy to explain how he won the Grammy award for his album ‘Twice As Tall’ — a project executive produced by Diddy. He claimed there was a sexual relationship between the duo.

After two months in the Kuje prison, Darlington was released on Tuesday.

In a now-deleted post via his Instagram story, Burna Boy warned that there would be no leniency if such a situation arose.

“If you like misbehave again, you will go back to where you come from! And this time around, there will be no mercy! Don’t mess with ODG,” he wrote, although he did not mention names.

The police in Abuja first detained Darlington in October 2024 after a formal complaint filed by Burna Boy.

He was, however, released on bail after five days in police detention.
