Recall that Verydarkman was arrested in Abuja by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) with no information, and Guaranty Trust Bank (GTB) was accused of complicity.
In a recent development, legendary Nigerian singer and saxophonist Seun Kuti claimed that Verydarkman's detention arose from commenting on an issue involving an unnamed Gospel artist.
Seun Kuti says his allegation originates from a conversation with the TikToker's lawyer, Deji Adeyanju.
“VDM’s lawyer is my lawyer, and we’re currently entangled in a case with GTB and other banks.There’s no bank in Nigeria that’s a good bank,” He stated.
Furthermore, Seun Kuti stated that religious officials are persecuting VeryDarkMan for reportedly telling the truth.
“As Federal government is running our country, all these big pastors dey run Nigeria. The people of God are the ones fighting VDM for speaking the truth,”He added.
Meanwhile, VDM’s fans speculate that Mercy Chinwo was involved in VerymarkMan's arrest.
Recall that the activist assisted Mercy’s former record label boss, Eezee Tee in a lawsuit with the singer.
