Nigerian dancer and entertainer Poco Lee has broken his silence following his release from detention in the United Kingdom, insisting that he did not commit the alleged offence that led to his detention.
The dancer made the remarks during a video call with social media activist Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), while reflecting on his experience and the support he received during the difficult period.
Poco Lee’s comments come after his release from detention in the UK, where details surrounding the alleged offence had generated public interest among his fans and followers.
Speaking during the video call, Poco Lee insisted that he was simply being himself and maintained that he had done nothing wrong.
“I was being myself, God sees my heart, my only worries out there was my people,” he said.
The dancer explained that his biggest concern while dealing with the situation was the people close to him and those who were supporting him from Nigeria.
According to Poco Lee, he would have accepted the consequences if he had actually committed the offence for which he was detained.
However, he maintained that he was innocent and had not done anything to warrant the situation.
Poco Lee further explained that he would not have complained about facing the consequences if there had been evidence that he committed the alleged offence.
He said he understood that people must be held accountable for their actions when they do something wrong.
However, the dancer maintained that his situation was different because, according to him, he did not commit the alleged offence.
His comments appeared to be aimed at clarifying his position while also reflecting on the emotional pressure associated with being detained in a foreign country.
During the conversation, Poco Lee also made a striking comment about the experience, advising men to spend a significant portion of their daily lives being cautious around women.
He told men to spend “18 hours” of their daily lives fearing women, a remark that quickly became one of the notable parts of the conversation.
The statement appeared to reflect his perception of the situation he had experienced and the need for men to be careful in their interactions.
However, the comment is likely to generate debate, particularly among social media users who may interpret his words differently.
The conversation with VeryDarkMan provided Poco Lee with an opportunity to discuss his experience following his release.
VDM has become known for publicly discussing issues involving Nigerian celebrities and social controversies, often using his social media platforms to draw attention to matters involving public figures.
The video call allowed Poco Lee to speak directly about his experience and acknowledge the support he received while dealing with the situation.
Poco Lee also highlighted his concern for his people while he was detained.
His statement suggested that his thoughts were focused not only on himself but also on those who were worried about him and following developments from outside the UK.
Being detained in another country can attract significant emotional and public pressure, particularly for a well-known entertainer whose activities are closely followed online.
Poco Lee’s latest comments have therefore offered his first-person perspective on the experience.
For now, Poco Lee continues to maintain that he did not commit the alleged offence.
While he acknowledged that he would have accepted responsibility if he had actually done something wrong, he insisted that this was not the case.
The circumstances surrounding the detention and the alleged offence remain subject to the available information and any relevant legal proceedings.
Poco Lee’s comments have nevertheless renewed public discussion about the incident and his experience in the United Kingdom.
