“Speedy.”
This is coming shortly after the abroad-based musician addressed the recent drama between him and a fan after he charged N5K before they could take photos with him.
According to Speed Darlington, fans ought to pay before they can snap with him as he has become a valuable icon to them.
He said that people should pay for value when they see one, and he’s an entertainer who spends a lot of time building this image in the minds of his fans.
