VeryDarkMan granted bail on ‘very stringent’ conditions

Social media personality and activist, VeryDarkMan




Deji Adeyanju, counsel to Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan, has disclosed that the social media critic and influencer has been granted ‘very stringent bail’ after his arraignment over alleged impersonation.

Tribune Online reports that Police detained VeryDarkMan after honouring invitation over use of uniform resembling that of the Police without authorisation.

Meanwhile, the Nigeria Police Force in its post on Friday, disclosed that VeryDarkMan will be arraigned in court through the Federal Capital Territory Command, following allegations of impersonation related to the authorised use of Police uniform in a viral social media video.

Providing an update on the arraignment, Deji Adeyanju, in a tarse Facebook post, stated that his client has been arraigned in court, but granted a stringent bail which he did not disclose in details.

“VDM arraigned, granted very stringent bail,” he said.

Recall that prior to VeryDarkMan’s recent video where he disclosed that he had visited a police station for questioningover the allegations and apologized to the NPF, the Police Headquarters had issued a statement where it condemned unauthorized use of its uniforms or insignia, described it a punishable offence and vowed to take it up with VeryDarkMan.
