R&B superstar R. Kelly Found Guilty
R&B superstar, R.Kelly has been found guilty of racketeering in a high-profile sex-trafficking case after being trailed by accusations of sexual misconduct and abuse for a long time.
The singer has been in custody and on trial in New York for one count of racketeering since he was formally charged in 2019, with 14 underlying acts that included sexual exploitation of a child, kidnapping, bribery and sex trafficking charges. He was also charged with eight additional counts of violations of the Mann Act, a sex trafficking law which bars the transport of people across state lines “for any immoral purpose.”
Though R.Kelly who is best known for the 1996 hit “I Believe I Can Fly” pleaded not guilty to all charges in the case and did not take the stand in his own defense, prosecutors in the trial which centered around the allegations of six people, alleged that the singer was a serial sexual predator who abused young women as well as underage girls and boys for more than two decades.

Federal prosecutors in the Eastern District of New York successfully proved to a jury of seven men and five women that Kelly had been the head of a criminal enterprise, whose purpose was to lure girls, boys and women to the R&B singer for his sexual gratification.
In a closing argument that lasted two days, Assistant U.S. Attorney Elizabeth Geddes accused Kelly and his entourage of using tactics from “the predator playbook” to control his victims.
It was alleged that his tactics include confining victims in hotel rooms or his recording studio, managing when they could eat and use the bathroom, and forcing them to follow various “rules,” including demanding they call him “Daddy.”
Fifty prosecution and defense witnesses took the stand during the five-week trial, including victims who were identified as “Jane Does” in Kelly’s indictments. There were 45 prosecution witnesses.

NDLEA Speaks on Pretty Mike’s Arrest, Warns Against ‘Drug Party’ Trend
The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has cautioned nightclub operators and fun seekers across Nigeria against the growing trend of organizing and attending “drug parties”, describing the practice as a serious criminal offence under Nigerian law.
The warning follows a major raid conducted by NDLEA operatives at Proxy Night Club, located at 7 Akin Adesola Street, Victoria Island, Lagos, on the night of Saturday, October 25, into the early hours of Sunday, October 26, 2025.
According to a statement released on Monday, October 28, by NDLEA spokesperson Femi Babafemi, over 100 attendees were arrested during the operation, alongside the club owner Mike Eze Nwalie Nwogu, popularly known as Pretty Mike, and his manager Joachin Millary, who are currently in custody.
“Any gathering organized for the purpose of consuming, distributing, or abusing illicit substances is an act of criminality,” Babafemi said. “These ‘drug parties’ contravene the NDLEA Act and will be treated as serious narcotic offences.”
The agency disclosed that its operatives had conducted undercover surveillance on the club prior to the raid, including pre-purchases of illicit substances, to confirm reports of ongoing drug transactions.
“For four hours, between 11 p.m. and 3 a.m., our operatives observed and recorded drug transactions and abuse before disrupting the brazen display of illegality,” Babafemi added.
NDLEA officials reportedly seized 384.882 kilograms of Canadian Loud, a potent strain of cannabis, along with other narcotic substances from the club’s storage area.
While all attendees were later profiled, counselled, and released, in line with international best practices, the two principal suspects Pretty Mike and his manager remain in NDLEA custody pending further investigation.
The agency reiterated its commitment to enforcing drug laws and urged Nigerians to refrain from attending or promoting drug-related events, warning that anyone found complicit will face prosecution.
