Social media activist VeryDarkMan criticizes Nigerian celebrities for donating N63 million to Bobrisky after his release from custody, arguing that the money should have supported impoverished communities instead. His comments sparked widespread debate online, with some agreeing and others defending the celebrities’ choices.
Social media activist Martins Otse Vincent, popularly known as VeryDarkMan, has publicly criticized Nigerian celebrities who collectively donated N63 million to support crossdresser Bobrisky after his recent release from police custody. Bobrisky had shared a list of his benefactors, which included high-profile figures like Don Jazzy, Tiwa Savage, Funke Akindele, and Victor Osimhen. He expressed gratitude for their support during his legal troubles.
However, VeryDarkMan expressed his disappointment on Instagram, stating that he had lost respect for these celebrities. He argued that their financial support for Bobrisky, whom he described as a negative influence, was misplaced. Instead, he suggested that the funds should have been directed towards helping impoverished communities in Nigeria.
The activist’s comments sparked significant reactions on social media, with some users agreeing with his stance, while others defended the celebrities' right to spend their money as they see fit. One user commented, “You might not like him, but he said nothing but the truth,” while another said, “Who are you to tell an adult what to do with their money?” The debate continues, highlighting the ongoing tension between public opinion and celebrity actions in Nigeria.
