He said he still cannot understand why EFCC operatives arrested VeryDarkMan on Friday, May 2, 2025.
He made this known in a post shared via his X handle @adeyanjudeji on Monday evening, May 5, 2025.
“Got into the country this evening and went straight to VDM at EFCC. Just left him. We still cannot understand why he was arrested. EFCC said there’s no petition against him after our repeated demands.”
Nigerians react as VeryDarkMan's lawyer visits him
@KayfasCFD
Then why was he arrested
Maybe them plan to kill am lowkey but as everyone stood up their plans were abolished.
@ambitiousGunner
@officialEFCC, you owe Nigerians a clear explanation for VDM’s arrest. I may not care much about him, but I care about fairness and justice because if it’s him today, it could be anyone tomorrow.
@tboss_guy
Na fear make EFCC arrest am. No invitation o. Double standard in this country. This is nothing but injustice to VDM and the entire youth of this country.
@flourish007
What exactly is the reason for holding and abusing his human rights or is it true that @gtbank just wanted to "punish" VDM?
Lawless nation.
@Frank1470944016
Boss abeg try all your best to make sure VDM comes out please sir you’re the only hope we have now please 🙏 sir.
@jydkent
A quick one do they have the right to keep him there still since there’s no petition against him?
@abacus2020
From the look of things
VDM may have a very sophisticated leak or details of a high-profile person that may be too loud when revealed. Leak of Bobrisky has sent bob to exile. I see sense something is to be covered up.
@Tinubusvictim
He wasn't arrested. He was kidnapped. They want to shut him up that's all.
@mr_talkanddo
They are still busy looking through his phone to bring up charges against him, God pass them
