Nigerian dancer and entertainer, Iweh Odinaka, popularly known as Poco Lee, has broken his silence on his recent ordeal in the United Kingdom, insisting that he remained confident throughout because he knew he was innocent of the allegations against him.

Poco Lee spoke during a video conversation with popular social commentator VeryDarkMan, who shared the video on his Instagram page on Sunday.

The entertainer said his concerns during the period centred largely on his associates and business activities, rather than the allegations against him.

“I was just being myself; God sees my heart. My only worries were about my people: Jago could not do anything business-wise; I didn’t want to stress anyone.

“If I were 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,” he said.

Also speaking in the video, VeryDarkMan expressed support for Poco Lee and questioned the circumstances surrounding the reports about his situation in the UK.

He particularly acknowledged the support given to the dancer by Nigerian singer Burna Boy and social media celebrity, Rahman Jago.

The development comes amid reports circulating online about the status of the criminal case against Poco Lee in the UK.

Some of the reports claimed that the dancer had been released from prison, while others suggested that the complainant had withdrawn from the case or that the matter had been resolved out of court.

However, the status of the case remains unchanged, according to the Crown Prosecution Service.
