The trial of Ghanaian artiste and socialite Showboy has been delayed after he arrived late for his scheduled hearing at the Adenta Circuit Court on February 12, 2026.
According to a report shared by GHOne TV online, the court has ordered that Showboy remain in custody for an additional two weeks while investigations continue.
Showboy faces allegations of blackmail and defamation targeting entrepreneur and music executive Davido GH (David Mensah). Authorities say the case revolves around claims that he threatened to release sensitive information about Davido GH unless certain demands were met.

The situation first came to public attention in January 2026, when CID officers attempted to arrest Showboy at his residence. The confrontation, which circulated widely online, captured Showboy questioning the legality of the arrest and insisting, “I need to see a warrant,” before complying.
He was eventually taken into custody on February 4 and brought before the court, where a psychiatric evaluation was conducted. After being declared mentally fit, Showboy returned to police supervision and remains in custody as the legal process unfolds.
