Lawyer and activist Deji Adeyanju has declared his commitment to securing the release of popular musician Speed Darlington, emphasizing the importance of standing against oppression in all its forms.
Adeyanju, known for his outspoken views on social justice, made headlines with his recent statement: “You can’t be singing against oppression and still be an oppressor.”
The comment comes as Speed Darlington faces legal troubles that have raised questions about the treatment of artists within Nigeria’s entertainment industry.
Adeyanju, who has been a vocal advocate for individual rights, stated that he is now actively involved in the case and will do whatever it takes to ensure the musician’s freedom.
“Oppression can’t be tolerated, no matter who it affects,” Adeyanju added, highlighting the contradictions faced by those who advocate for social justice while failing to support others in similar situations.
His remarks resonate with many Nigerians who are increasingly aware of the challenges artists encounter in expressing their creativity and dissent.
The legal troubles surrounding Speed Darlington have sparked a wave of support from fans and fellow artists, with calls for justice and fairness gaining traction on social media. As the situation develops, Adeyanju’s involvement may signal a broader movement to address systemic issues within the industry.
As both a lawyer and an activist, Deji Adeyanju’s commitment to fighting against oppression emphasizes the need for solidarity among those who seek to promote equity and justice in society.
The coming days will reveal how this high-profile case unfolds and the impact it may have on the broader conversation about artists’ rights in Nigeria.
