Social media influencer VeryDarkMan arrested by police in Abuja

Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), a well-known Nigerian social media influencer, has been arrested by the Nigerian police in Abuja.

According to reports, the arrest occurred at a Guaranty Trust Bank (GTBank) branch following VDM’s public allegations against the bank over unauthorized withdrawals from his mother’s account.

His legal representative, Barrister Deji Adeyanju, confirmed the arrest on Friday via Twitter.

“JUST IN: VDM arrested by the police at GTB. Spoke to them before he was arrested.

This is absolutely unacceptable. Demanding accountability is not a crime,” he wrote.

In a follow-up post, Adeyanju noted that VDM was taken into custody along with a friend identified as C Park, while his mother was not detained.
