Bobrisky: VeryDarkMan Threatens To Release More Evidence To Back His Allegations

Social media influencer, Martins Otse, also known as VeryDarkMan, has disclosed that he has additional incriminating evidence to bolster his allegations against Idris Okuneye, widely recognized as Bobrisky, particularly concerning the voice note in which Bobrisky asserted that he had completed his prison sentence in a private residence.

Furthermore, he emphasized that he did not aim to tarnish the reputation of human rights attorney and Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Femi Falana, contrary to claims made online.

“Now, let me tell you something even more interesting. I have another voice note to post, which I will share tomorrow, and it’s from a different person.

“I want a thorough investigation into this matter because the EFCC was mentioned, the Comptroller General of Prisons was named, as well as Uncle Femi Falana and Falz. A deep investigation will reveal everything,” VeryDarkMan said in an Instagram post.

This statement comes in the wake of Falana’s denial of any connection to Bobrisky, alongside his issuance of a 24-hour ultimatum to VeryDarkMan to retract the assertion linking him to Bobrisky.

In a letter addressed to VeryDarkMan, Falana’s attorney demanded both a retraction and an apology.

The controversy originated when VeryDarkMan disseminated a voice note in which Bobrisky purportedly stated that, following his conviction and sentencing for the misuse of naira notes in April, his godfather, in conjunction with the Controller General of the Nigerian Correctional Service, arranged for him to serve his six-month sentence in a private residence.

The voice note further alleged that Bobrisky had been approached by the rapper Falz and his father, Falana, who allegedly offered assistance in obtaining a Federal Government pardon for a fee of ₦10 million.

However, in the letter from his lawyers demanding a retraction and apology, Falana stated: “We wish to state, without any fear of contradiction, that our client (Falana) has never, in his life, spoken to Bobrisky regarding his alleged pardon or on any matter whatsoever.”

Reacting, however, in a subsequent letter, VeryDarkMan denied that he defamed the human rights lawyer, but merely expressed doubt about his alleged involvement.

He said, “First of all, I did not defame Uncle Falana, and I never will. Uncle Falana, SAN, is someone I respect 100%. I respect him not just because of his position as SAN, but because of what he has used that position to achieve—representing people like me. People like me, speak out against societal ills, the abuse of power, and influence, and the misdeeds of the government.

“How could I ever defame him? I only responded to Bobrisky’s claim that Falz connected Uncle Falana with a ₦10 million deal. What I said was that I chose not to believe Uncle Femi Falana would be associated with such a thing, and if he was, I would be disappointed because of his standing in society and what he represents.

“I had the option to cut the video where Falz was mentioned, but I didn’t because I wanted the matter to be investigated. I want a thorough investigation into this issue.

“I want a deep investigation into this case. The EFCC was named, the Comptroller General of Prisons was named, and then Uncle Femi Falana and Falz were named. A deep investigation would uncover everything, and if Bobrisky is lying, he should face the law for using someone as prominent as Uncle Falana in such a way.

“Uncle Falana, I will never defame you, and I did not defame you. Thank you very much; I still love you. You are my daddy, and I love you 100%.”
