EFCC ARRESTS INFLUENCER VERYDARKMAN OVER DISPUTE WITH GTBANK

Nigerian social media influencer, Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), has been detained by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

Activist lawyer Deji Adeyanju confirmed the arrest, linking it to VDM’s recent criticism of GTBank over alleged unauthorized withdrawals from his mother’s account.

According to Adeyanju, VDM and a friend were apprehended at the bank, with the influencer held in the bank’s exit area to facilitate the arrest. Legal action against GTBank is reportedly being prepared for what was described as inhumane treatment.
