Published on May 4, 2025

Deji Adeyanju, legal counsel to social media influencer Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan and VDM, has disclosed that he’ll be in Abuja, on Monday to secure bail for his client.

Recall that VDM was arrested at a GTBank branch in Abuja on Friday, May 2, over claims of unauthorized deductions from his mother’s account.

Following this, VDM’s legal counsel on Sunday told VANGUARD his intention to return to Abuja to work on his client’s release.

“I’m currently not in Nigeria, but I’ll be back in Abuja tomorrow afternoon. By 4 p.m., we’ll be at the EFCC to secure his bail,” Adeyanju said.

However, a source within the EFCC, who spoke on condition of anonymity, confirmed the arrest on Sunday, stating: “We picked him up based on several complaints that he used his social media platforms to harass, insult, and intimidate individuals — actions that may contravene the Cybercrimes Act of 2015.”
