Nelly is innocent of the rape charges - Akon | Mr Olumide's Blog

Following reports that rapper Nelly was arrested for second degree rape yesterday, singer and friend Akon, has come out to support his friend saying he did not rape anyone.

Speaking with TMZ, Akon said:

We got the singer at LAX Saturday, and our guy throws him for a loop right away with the news. Akon’s clearly not buying it, though … and practically guarantees it’s not true because he knows Nelly.
Then it gets really interesting … Akon speculates the rape charge could be a case of mistaken identity or — even worse — the accuser might have made it all up to try to score an easy payday from the rapper.
Either way it’s evident — Akon thinks the rape allegations against Nelly are completely bogus … which is exactly how Nelly feels.
