Nigerian singer, Darlington Okoye, popularly known as Speed Darlington, has accused fellow Artiste, Badmus Okikiola, also known as Portable, of using voodoo charms, juju, during their recent celebrity boxing match early Saturday morning.
Speed Darlington suggested his opponent, holder of the celebrity boxing belt before the match, might have introduced native charms into the ring, which, in his view, influenced the outcome of the fight.
The bout, which took place around 3am Saturday, was part of the ‘Chaos In The Ring’ event, organised by Game Rush and Balmoral Promotions.
The bout, tagged ‘Chaos in the Ring’, stemmed from an online feud between the singers.
The feud began when Speed Darlington offered Portable N500,000 to perform at his show. Portable declined and publicly mocked the offer, labelling Speed Darlington a ‘poor being.’
The bout took place at the Balmoral Convention Centre, Victoria Island, Lagos, where both artistes displayed their boxing skills to the delight of fans.
In a video posted to the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), Speed Darlington alleged that his shoulder became dislocated during the match, despite not experiencing any significant fatigue.
Portable emerged victorious in the encounter, which has since generated widespread attention online.
According to reports, tensions between the two Artistes escalated after Speed Darlington offered Portable ₦500,000 to perform at an event, an offer Portable reportedly found insulting.
