Nigerian music rapper Speed Darlington, widely known as Akpi or Speedy, has returned to the front lines of blogs.

It is no news that this was the very genesis of his predicament, but he does not seem to want to back down anytime soon.

This comes after he was granted bail following his two-month prison sentence for allegedly making defamatory statements against Burna Boy.
