In a recent video, social media influencer VDM has voiced strong criticism against Burna Boy for allegedly abusing his power by having Speed Darlington, also known as Akpi, arrested. VDM argues that instead of resorting to intimidation, Burna Boy should have taken legal action against Akpi to clear his name from the ongoing allegations.
Legal Action Over Intimidation
VDM pointed out that taking Akpi to court would have compelled him to either provide evidence for his claims or issue an apology, thereby safeguarding Burna Boy’s reputation. He emphasized that a legal route would have been a more appropriate response to the allegations rather than resorting to what he described as “abuse of power.”
Comparisons with Davido’s Case
VDM further clarified that he had previously called out Davido in a similar manner and did not resort to extreme measures. He highlighted that the individual Davido arrested has continued his defamatory actions without any repercussions, suggesting that such tactics do not effectively resolve conflicts.
The Ongoing Controversy
The backdrop to this situation involves Speed Darlington’s recent comments linking Burna Boy to controversial figures, particularly in light of the ongoing legal troubles surrounding American music mogul Diddy. Following these comments, Speed Darlington was reported missing, leading to speculation about Burna Boy’s involvement in his disappearance.
Public Reaction and Implications
VDM’s statements have ignited discussions on social media about the dynamics of power in the Nigerian music industry and the responsibilities of artists when faced with public criticism. As fans rally around both artists, the situation remains tense, with many calling for accountability and transparency.
Conclusion
