- VeryDarkMan has criticised the APC for early campaign moves, arguing that governance not campaigning should earn public support.
- According to him, the period between 2023 and 2027 should be dedicated to delivering results for Nigerians, not preparing for another election cycle.
- He raised concerns about insecurity, accused leaders of misplaced priorities, and urged Nigerians to reject vote-buying.
Social media activist VeryDarkMan has sparked fresh political debate after criticising the All Progressives Congress (APC) over what he described as premature campaign activities ahead of the next general elections.
In a viral video circulating online, the outspoken commentator argued that the ruling party should focus on governance rather than campaigning, insisting that good performance should naturally earn public support.
“APC have no right whatsoever to campaign in this country again. APC have no right to campaign,” he said.
According to him, the period between 2023 and 2027 should be dedicated to delivering results for Nigerians, not preparing for another election cycle.
“You have first four years… for the people to beg you to run, not for you to come back and campaign,” he added.
Drawing comparisons, VeryDarkMan referenced Alex Otti as an example of leadership driven by performance.
“Just like Alex Oti of Abia State, they beg him… Alex Oti, you must run again,” he said.
A major part of his criticism focused on the country’s worsening security situation, which he described as his primary concern.
“Insecurity… that is my main problem,” he stated.
He further lamented the impact on agriculture, claiming that many farmers are unable to access their lands due to threats from armed groups, while referencing the spread of insurgent activities linked to Boko Haram.
“Farmers cannot go to their farms. Boko Haram have taken almost everywhere in Nigeria,” he said.
The activist also questioned the priorities of political leaders, accusing them of spending resources on campaigns instead of addressing urgent national challenges.
“In all of this, you have money to campaign, to put billboards everywhere,” he said, alleging that some influencers were being paid to “preach lies to the people.”
He concluded by urging Nigerians to reflect on their electoral decisions and avoid being swayed by short-term incentives.
“Nigerians… this greed to just collect sharp, sharp,” he warned, cautioning against vote-buying and political manipulation.
