Court Orders VDM To Delete Videos Calling Out The Falanas

The court has ordered Nigerian internet critic Vincent Martins Otse, also known as VeryDarkMan, to remove his videos that criticise Femi Falana.

After accusing Femi Falana and his son, musician Folarin “Falz” Falana, of bribery on social media in an attempt to target crossdresser Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky, VDM found himself in legal hot water.

There has been a recent update on the situation, and the Falanas have pledged to take legal action against him.

A legal notice circulating on social media on October 15, 2024, stated that the court had ordered internet critic VeryDarkMan to take down his videos featuring Femi Falana and to cease discussing the human rights attorney going forward.

Nigerians’ reactions to the latest developments in VDM and Femi Falana’s case were not uniform. While some people applauded the court’s ruling, others thought it was oppressive.

In a recent update, Verydarkman revealed that he had successfully raised an astounding N62 million for his recently founded non-governmental organisation (NGO) through crowdfunding.

Recall that this popular figure had only a few days earlier founded his non-governmental organisation (NGO), which seeks to use innovative approaches to improve the public education system.

He was able to raise more than N20 million in one day on the day it was founded. He said in a recent update that the entire money is still growing and has now surpassed N65 million.

He posted this information in an Instagram blog’s comments section after the earlier amount was first announced.
