Speed Darlington sends a cryptic message to his enemies
For the first time since his arrest, the rapper shared a new post on his Instagram page with a voiceover, sending a message to his lovers, fans and haters.
Using images of 2 bulls, Akpi, as he is fondly called, stated that when two bulls are fighting and one goes back it isn’t because he is afraid, rather it back-pedals to recharge and bounce back with more strength.
His post has social media users wondering why he would share such a thing online, considering what he had just been through.
