Nigerian dancer and entertainer, Iweh Pascal Odinaka, popularly known as Poco Lee, has been charged with five sexual offences in the United Kingdom.
The charges, confirmed by Snaresbrook Crown Court in London, include one count of attempted rape, two counts of rape and two counts of assault by penetration.
Poco Lee is currently on remand in the UK and is expected to appear before Snaresbrook Crown Court on September 15, 2026, for plea and trial preparation.
The court has also imposed a reporting restriction to protect the identity of the complainant.
Poco Lee has not been convicted of any offence, and the allegations against him remain to be determined by the court.
His management has urged the public to exercise restraint, stressing that allegations should not be treated as evidence of guilt.
The development follows reports of the dancer’s detention in the UK earlier this month.
Poco Lee was in London for a music event before reports of his detention emerged.
