- Nigerian singer Seun Kuti and online personality VeryDarkMan may have had a falling out.
- The conflict reportedly began over Seun’s support for activist Omoyele Sowore.
- Sowore had previously supported businessman Blord in a dispute with VeryDarkMan.
There are signs that Nigerian singer Seun Kuti and online personality Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan, may have fallen out.
The tension reportedly started when Seun was accused of backing activist and politician Omoyele Sowore, who had shown support for businessman Blord during his dispute with VeryDarkMan.
Addressing the issue, Seun clarified that Sowore’s stance was not about defending any particular individual. Speaking during a live session that later circulated online, he argued that the real concern was the conduct of the Nigerian police. According to him, law enforcement officers sometimes appear to take sides in conflicts involving influential figures instead of remaining impartial.
He further emphasized that the matter extends beyond the people directly involved, noting that such alleged misuse of authority could affect anyone and points to a broader systemic problem.
However, Seun’s remarks in support of Sowore did not sit well with VeryDarkMan’s followers, many of whom criticised the singer.
Reacting via his Instagram story on Wednesday, April 22, Seun fired back at the backlash, describing VeryDarkMan’s supporters as “rats.”
In addition, a check of both parties’ Instagram accounts suggests that Seun and VeryDarkMan have unfollowed each other, further fueling speculation about a rift.
Previously, VeryDarkMan had supported Seun during his online clash with Afrobeats star Wizkid, which stemmed from comments related to Seun’s late father, legendary musician Fela Kuti.
