The days that followed saw VDM’s fans taking to the streets and social media to advocate for his release. After the critic eventually regained his freedom, his fans organised a welcome home party for him.

Videos from the welcome home party that took place in Abuja saw many youths singing, dancing and making merry over VDM’s freedom.

After the party videos went viral, actor Emeneks saw them and dropped his hot take online.

The movie star was not pleased by the display, and he described it as foolishness. According to Emeka, there are a lot of foolish people per square metre in Nigeria.

He tweeted:

“We have a lot of foolish people per square meter in this country 🤦🏻‍♂️”
