Nigerian social media influencer, Martins Vincent Otse, widely known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), has been arrested by the Nigerian police in Abuja.
VDM’s lawyer, Deji Adeyanju, confirmed the arrest on his X account on Friday, May 2. The incident occurred at a GTB bank in Abuja.
Adeyanju wrote, “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 later added, “A team of policemen arrested VDM at GTB. He was arrested along with his friend, C Park, but they left his mother alone.”
The police have not yet provided an official statement on the arrest.
It’s worth noting that in November 2024, VDM was also detained by the police after responding to an invitation from them.
