Popular social activist Martins Vincent Otse, better known as Verydarkman (VDM), has broken his silence following his recent arrest by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over alleged financial misconduct.
In a viral video recorded shortly after his release, VDM appeared alongside his lawyer, visibly shocked by the allegations of money laundering leveled against him.
“How would they level allegations of money laundering on someone who doesn’t have money?” he questioned. “I’ve done so many charity, they wonder how — they don’t know I use debt for charity. Anyway, we are outside, with my lawyer of course.”
VDM’s statement has sparked mixed reactions online, with some praising his commitment to charity and others questioning the circumstances surrounding the case. As of now, neither the EFCC nor his legal team has released an official statement detailing the charges.
