Prophet asks VeryDarkMan to rest

He wrote:

“Please tell Very Dark Man to rest. He truly needs rest—mentally, physically, and medically. I am not saying he should stop his work or remain quiet; no. He should continue doing what he is doing, but he must take time off his phone, sleep, and care for his body.

“Medically, he needs attention and proper check-ups. He needs to rest, take breaks, and allow his body to recover. If possible, travelling out of Nigeria to rest would be very beneficial.
“This is not a judgment—he simply needs to pause for a week, step away from social media, and focus on his health. His body is not firewood; it cannot sustain nonstop work without care.”

He added via a X post:

“We need to pray for him. God, give him the wisdom and opportunity to rest. Let him rest, recover, and be renewed.”

VeryDarkMan claims to tackle injustice in Nigeria

VeryDarkMan’s social media activism began in 2022. He first gained attention through his online exchanges with Nigerian celebrities, which significantly boosted his following.

He later began sharing videos that stirred controversy, and by early 2023, his content had gone viral, further amplifying debates around his online presence.
