Monday, September 14, 2026 - Nigerian dancer and entertainer, Poco Lee, has spoken for the first time since his release on bail in the United Kingdom, saying he remained mentally strong throughout the ordeal because he knew he was innocent of the allegation against him.
Poco Lee made the disclosure during a video call with social
commentator VeryDarkMan, which was shared on Sunday.
The dancer said his major concern while he was away was the
welfare of his associates and the impact of his absence on their business
activities.
“I was just being myself. God sees my heart. My only worries
were about my people. Jago could not do anything business, and I didn’t want to
stress anyone.
“If I was inside there and I did what I was accused of, I
would have felt I was paying for my sins, but since I knew I didn’t do what I
was accused of, my mind is pure.
“Nobody would have wanted to associate themselves with
something like that, but Burna Boy stood by me, Jago and some of my other
guys.”
VeryDarkMan, who shared the video call on social media, also
questioned reports surrounding Poco Lee situation while praising Burna Boy and
Rahman Jago for their support.
In the caption accompanying the video, VeryDarkMan wrote: “I
just got off a video call with @rahman_jago_ and @poco_lee. I guess the next
narrative will be this is AI 🤡. THERE IS A REASON WHY
I BRAG WITH INTEGRITY, I AM NOBODY’S mate, WHEN I talk take it to the bank.”
Recall that Snaresbrook Crown Court had earlier fixed
September 15 for plea and trial preparation in the case.
The case stems from Poco Lee’s visit to the UK in August for
the Davido and Friends concert, which was held at the Crystal Palace Bowl in
London on August 14.
Poco Lee has not been convicted of any offence, while the allegation against him remains before the court for determination.
