Controversial vlogger Xtian Dela, also known as Arthur Mandela, has resolved his issues with the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) after being summoned over his explicit Instagram live show.
On Friday, Dela announced on his Instagram page that everything was all good after he was summoned by the DCI, and his Club Covid IG Live show will return on Friday night.
He thanked his lawyer Kepher Ojijo for handling his matter well and his fans for their unwavering support during his troublesome week.
"I've had a very stressful week. Thanks for the calls, messages and emails…Honestly speaking, I have been blown away by your support..Thank You!! It's all good now thanks to my (our) lawyer @kepherojijo. Thanks bro! Thank you for everything!! We owe you a lot!!" posted Xtian Dela.
He was summoned by the DCI to record a statement over his show, which has been praised and condemned in equal measure.
The show was at the center of controversy after three parents sued Dela for airing explicit content, claiming he was infringing on the rights of teenagers.
Through their lawyers, they accused Dela of broadcasting obscene material in his show and engaging young girls before the show, then later raising funds to pay them.
