The Nigerian police in Abuja have arrested Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), a well-known social media influencer and personality in Nigeria.

He allegedly publicly criticised Guarantee Trust Bank (GTBank) for allegedly allowing unauthorised transactions from his mother’s account, which led to his detention.

His lawyer, Barrister Deji Adeyanju, confirmed the development on Twitter on Friday, revealing that officers of the Nigeria Police Force apprehended VeryDarkMan at Area 3 in Abuja.

“JUST IN: VDM arrested by the police at GTB. Spoke to them before he was arrested. This is absolutely unacceptable. Demanding accountability is not a crime,” Adeyanju tweeted.

In another update, he added, “A team of policemen arrested VDM at GTB. He was arrested with his friend C Park but they left his mom alone.”
