The Nigeria Police Force has arrested popular social media influencer Martins Vincent Otse, known online as Verydarkman.
According to activist lawyer Deji Adeyanju, Otse’s arrest was ordered by the Police Commissioner of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Command, CP Igwe. Otse was detained for allegedly exposing a Nigerian accused of defrauding someone abroad.
Adeyanju told newsmen on Sunday, June 30, 2024, “Our client, @thatverydarkman, has just been arrested by the police on the instruction of CP Igwe for exposing someone who allegedly duped a Nigerian abroad. Instead of the police to arrest the person alleged to have duped someone, they arrested VDM on allegation of defamation,” He said.
