Social media influencer and blogger, Martins Vincent Otse, also known as Verydarkman, has been remanded in police custody after a Federal High Court in Abuja denied his bail application.
The police opposed his bail, presenting charges of cyberstalking against him. The court adjourned the case to May 29, 2024. The charges include posting false and offensive videos on social media platforms and targeting public figures like Iyabo Ojo and Tonto Dikeh.
Despite criticisms of his arrest and condemnation of Bobrisky's freedom, the police stated that Verydarkman's release is pending further legal procedures.
