Protests were staged at various EFCC offices as sympathizers condemned what they described as an unlawful and unwarranted detention of a citizen who has built a following based on social advocacy and transparency.

After spending five days in EFCC custody, VeryDarkMan was released on the evening of Wednesday, May 7. In a video that has since gone viral, he broke his silence and disclosed that the reason for his arrest was tied to suspicions of money laundering.

Expressing shock and frustration at the accusation, he said:

“They think I am into money laundering, how would they put money laundering for person wey no get money? I have done so many charities, and them they wonder how. They don’t know that I use debt for charity. Anyway, we are outside, with my lawyer, of course.”

The video has further fueled discussions online, with many pointing out what they describe as a pattern of harassment against outspoken voices in Nigeria.

VeryDarkMan, who has gained popularity for his fearless criticism of institutions and celebrities alike, appears undeterred. His tone in the video suggested resilience and a commitment to continue his public advocacy.

At the time of this report, the EFCC has not officially commented on the specific allegations or whether he will face any charges. However, public interest in the case remains high, as supporters continue to rally behind the controversial but influential commentator.
