Darlington Okoye, the Nigerian singer, who is popularly known as Speed Darlington, has spoken out after his boxing bout with fellow artist Badmus Okikiola, widely known as Portable.
Dalington claimed that Portable used traditional charms, commonly referred to as juju during their recent celebrity boxing showdown.
The match was part of the ‘Chaos In The Ring’ event, held on Saturday and organised by Game Rush in collaboration with Balmoral Promotions.
The event follows previous showcases by the organisers, including a December 2024 bout and the launch of ‘Friday Fight Night’ in February 2025.
In a video posted on social media platform X, Speed Darlington alleged that his shoulder became dislocated during the fight, even though he felt no signs of exhaustion.
He suggested that the injury could have been caused by supernatural means allegedly introduced by Portable.
“I’m not sure what happened—maybe it was the juju Portable came with. I wasn’t even tired, but somehow my hand got dislocated,” — Speed Darlington speaks out after his loss to Portable.
