Reacting to the pictures, the outspoken TikToker pointed out that they were fake and he didn’t have any intention whatsoever of meeting the industrialist.
He wrote: “This picture of me and Aliko Dangote going viral is fake, please disregard it. I have never met Aliko Dangote, and I have no interest whatsoever in meeting him! Believe it is AI-generated with the aim of spoiling my name.”

Legit.ng earlier reported that VDM admitted to initiating the call that resulted in the detention of activist Harrison Gwamnishu, who is currently in police custody in Benin, Edo state.
In a Facebook video posted on Friday, he confirmed that Gwamnishu was apprehended on Thursday night and stated that he personally called the police after hearing allegations of an incident involving Gwamnishu in Auchi.
According to him, he was "disappointed" by the information he gathered and had advised certain people not to discuss the topic online.
However, a video later appeared on social media, causing him to confront those responsible. He added that one of the people who shared the video stated he did it to clear his name after being accused of involvement in the case.
The social media critic also criticised Gwamnishu's response video, calling it "gaslighting" and an attempt to manipulate public emotion despite knowing the facts of the case.
He claimed that the police had warned people present not to film, but one person managed to get a video of Gwamnishu returning money related to the case.
