Social media user Adeyeye, widely identified online as an “X banger boy,” has reportedly reunited with his family after regaining freedom in a case linked to false claims involving singers Adekunle Gold and Simi’s child.
According to reports, Adeyeye had earlier been arrested for allegedly spreading fake news concerning the celebrity couple’s daughter.
The matter later took another turn after a Good Samaritan reportedly paid the court-imposed fine connected to the case.
Reports indicated that the payment facilitated his release, allowing him to reunite with members of his family.

No additional official details were immediately provided regarding whether further proceedings remain active in the matter.
The case continues to generate discussion around responsible digital conduct and the growing scrutiny of online commentary in Nigeria’s entertainment space.
