Social media critic Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), has responded to a legal threat from the Presidency.

 

 

A doctored video of VDM allegedly using fake audio of President Bola Tinubu had gone viral on social media.

 

Reacting, President Bola Tinubu’s media aide, Bayo Onanuga, said VDM would be made to face the law.

 

 

Responding, the self-acclaimed online police officer said he would not defend the video, adding that he was ready for the legal battle.

 

He said, “I will not defend the allegations. If I respond, let God punish me. I want to face that law. I will even book a flight to come earlier than I planned. I want to see what you people can do.

 

“If you are pained that VDM is speaking, what option do I have other than to speak? It is my right to criticise the government when it is doing wrong. We are in a democracy.”
