Popular Nigerian dancer Iweh Odinaka, known as Poco Lee, is held on remand in the United Kingdom over an alleged assault offence, according to Nigerian-UK community sources. Vanguard and Daily Post Nigeria both report that his case is pending before the courts.
A community advocate in the UK says Poco Lee’s next court appearance is scheduled for the second week of September. Vanguard similarly states that he will appear in a London court in September, describing the matter as an alleged assault. The reports rely on information shared by community representatives rather than quoting court documents or prosecution statements.
Across the outlets, the agreed points are Poco Lee’s detention on remand, the allegation of assault, and that a September court date—specifically in London and likely in the second week—is set. None of the articles provide further details about the incident or the exact date and jurisdiction beyond the September timeframe.
