Famous Nigerian singer Darlington Okoye, also known as Speed Darlington, who resides in the US, claims that fraudsters frequently book the tours of Nigerian artists in the US.

He left himself off the list since, in his words, any performer that flies from Nigeria to hold a show is being paid with shady funds.

The claim was made by Speed Darlington in an online video where he said that because the majority of Nigerians working overseas are in the healthcare industry and are overworked, none of them would stand for 12 hours at a concert.

He stated that there aren’t enough Nigerians living in the US for an artist to be able to sell out a concert there.

He maintains that if one does the necessary research, they would find that the majority of Nigerian musicians are being paid by con artists to perform abroad.
