Associates of cryptocurrency entrepreneur BLORD have called out social media critic VeryDarkMan, accusing him of spreading false information regarding the ongoing legal proceedings.
In a strongly worded statement, the group alleged that VeryDarkMan misrepresented details about BLORD’s condition and detention, particularly claims that he was moved from a “ghetto prison” to a VIP cell due to illness.
“I didn’t want to make this video, but because of the lies from VeryDarkMan, I am forced to speak out. VDM, your end is looming. You said BLORD was sick and transferred from ‘ghetto prison’ to a VIP cell. Were you there?” the associate said.
They further claimed that prison authorities were displeased with how the situation was handled, referencing a warning allegedly issued by the Controller of Kuje Prison.
“The Controller of Kuje Prison told us that if he had been present when you people escorted BLORD from court to prison, he would have fired and shot at you for breaching the law,” the statement added.
The associates also accused VeryDarkMan of being aware of legal developments in the case, including the counter affidavit filed by the police to oppose BLORD’s bail application, contrary to his public claims.
The back-and-forth has intensified tensions surrounding the case, with both sides trading accusations as legal proceedings continue.
Meanwhile…. Human rights activist Omoyele Sowore has claimed that social media personality VeryDarkMan would have remained in detention if he had not intervened during his arrest in 2024.
Sowore made the remark while recalling events around the Easter period of 2024, when VeryDarkMan was arrested in a case that drew widespread public attention and online reactions.
“VeryDarkMan would still be in prison if I had not intervened during Easter 2024 when he was arrested,” he said.
The activist did not give further details on the nature of his intervention or the specific legal steps involved at the time.
The 2024 incident occurred during the Easter period when VeryDarkMan was arrested over allegations linked to cyber-related offences, including accusations of cyberbullying and online harassment involving public commentary on individuals.
He was detained by law enforcement authorities and faced court proceedings, with his case attracting significant social media attention. Supporters and critics engaged in heated debate over the legitimacy of the arrest and the broader issue of online speech regulation in Nigeria.
