The Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency (DSVA) has acknowledged the disturbing video where entertainer Speed Darlington appeared to confess to sleeping with a minor. While the agency emphasized its jurisdiction is limited to Lagos, it has escalated the case to NAPTIP for investigation. The government reaffirmed its zero-tolerance stance on gender-based violence, urging witnesses to come forward.
- Jurisdiction Hurdle: DSVA clarified it can only act if the alleged crime occurred in Lagos.
- NAPTIP Alert: The case was forwarded to the national agency for broader investigation.
- Public Vigilance: Citizens are urged to report leads via toll-free lines or NAPTIP’s contacts.
- Legal Gray Area: Darlington’s video lacked location details, complicating immediate action.
