Yes, I saw the gist. But small correction first —Burna Boy Didn't Pay Ms Jorji Any $200,00 To forget about the case with Pocolee is in the UK.
Here’s what’s happening with *Pocolee / Iweh Pascal Odinaka* as of now Sept 2026:
What’s the case about.
- CHARGES: He’s facing *5 s*xual offence charges* at Snaresbrook Crown Court in London: 1 count of attempted r**e, 2 counts of r**e, and 2 counts of assault by pe*******on.
- *Alleged date/location*: The alleged offences happened in *Tower Hamlets, east London on July 23*.
- STATUS: He first appeared at Thames Magistrates' Court on Aug 18, and the case was moved to Snaresbrook Crown Court.
- NEXT COURT DATE: *September 15, 2026* for "plea and trial preparation hearing". A reporting restriction is in place to protect the complainant’s identity.
OTHER GISTS FLYING AROUND
1. U.S ALLEGATION: Texas-based Nigerian rapper Ms Jorji posted videos alleging that Pocolee tried to s*xually assault her and her girlfriend about 2 years ago in Dallas. She said she spoke up because of the UK case. This is separate and has not been verified by any court.
2. MANAGEMENT STATEMENT: His team on Aug 25 said the matter is in court and urged people not to treat allegations as guilt. They also debunked "drink spiking" claims, saying that’s not part of the charges.
3. *Release rumour*: A few days ago TikToker Peller and some blogs claimed Pocolee was released because the accuser withdrew the case. But the *Crown Prosecution Service* responded that the case is "still live" and he’s still set to appear Sept 15. They didn’t confirm if he’s been released from custody or not.
IMPORTANT NOTE
He has *not been convicted*. The court and his management keep saying "allegations are not evidence of guilt" until the legal process is done.
So summary: No conviction yet. Case is in UK court. Next hearing is Sept 15. The "s*x worker in America" part isn’t what’s in the official charges — the UK charges are the main one, and there’s a separate unverified claim from a US-based artist.
