Goski, the long-time personal assistant to Nigerian singer and content creator Speed Darlington (Darlington Achakpo), has announced the end of their four-year working relationship while leveling severe allegations of financial exploitation against the entertainer.
In a video statement posted online, the former aide detailed his frustration over what he described as unfair compensation and mistreatment despite his years of dedication and out-of-pocket support.
The most striking claim centered on an alleged ₦30 million deal where Goski claimed he received a fraction of what he was owed for connecting the singer with key clients and opportunities.
"250,000, 0.75% out of 30 million. Not even one per cent. Not even one million," Goski revealed, detailing the payout he received from the multi-million naira transaction.
He further explained that Speed Darlington had previously agreed to a 6% cut from booked jobs, only to later hide behind the lack of formal paperwork to avoid paying.
"Even if I don't have a contract with you, does it mean that you keep me like trash?" he asked.
Beyond the deal commission, Goski alleged that he repeatedly used his personal funds to handle logistics, pay for transport, and travel to Abuja multiple times during Speed Darlington’s legal troubles. He added that the relationship collapsed because the singer favored intimidation over a professional partnership.
According to Goski, the entertainer wanted an assistant he could control rather than someone actively contributing to his career through content creation and business development.
Concluding his address, the former aide officially cut ties and warned event organizers and fans against reaching out to him for any future bookings involving the artist.
"I’m not with Speedy, and I’ll never be with him anymore," he declared.
