When invited to present his testimony, VDM expressed his dismay over Bobrisky’s absence, stating, “I don’t know why I am here while the person who made these allegations is not present.”
Abuja, Nigeria – Popular social media influencer, Martins Otse, widely known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), declined to address allegations raised by Idris Okuneye, also known as Bobrisky, before a House of Representatives investigative panel on Monday.
Bobrisky had alleged that officials of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the Nigerian Correctional Service demanded N15 million for his placement in a VIP section at the Kirikiri Medium Custodial Centre in Lagos.
When invited to present his testimony, VDM expressed his dismay over Bobrisky’s absence, stating, “I don’t know why I am here while the person who made these allegations is not present.”
He continued, “Bobrisky mentioned in the voice note that there is a godfather. Maybe this godfather told him not to appear before the committee. His absence shows disrespect to this committee.”
Amidst efforts by the panel to persuade VDM to speak, he asserted, “You are already threatening me with arrest. If you detain me, I will stay in the cell. If Bobrisky is not here, I will not say anything. If I say anything, let me die.”
At the time of filing this report, members of the committee were still trying to convince VeryDarkMan to share his account, assuring him that Bobrisky would be summoned to face the panel as well.
