Controversial social commentator, Saida Boj, has reacted to VeryDarkMan’s arrest on social media.

Recall that on May 1, VDM whose real name is Vincent Martins Otse, was taken away by some men after he went to a GTBank branch with his mother to complain about the alleged deduction from her salary account over a loan she never took.

VeryDarkMan’s arrest shook the Nigerian social media space with some netizens calling on popular voices to speak on the matter, one of them being Saida Boj.

On her Instagram page, the young lady whose real name is Sarah Idaji Ojone cautioned the people calling on her to speak on VeryDarkMan’s arrest.

According to Saida Boj, she won’t beg for his release over how he repaid her when she spread awareness during one of his previous arrests. The social critic claimed that she had advocated for his release at the time but he refused to acknowledge or appreciate her after regaining his freedom. She said:

“When he was locked up last year, I pleaded for him and even posted his picture on all my social media platforms asking people to repost it, oversabi like me. When he was finally released, did i get a thank you? No. Why he go tell me thank you? Dem send me message? Make nobody tag me again. With or without my voice, he won’t be there forever?”

Not stopping there, Saida Boj added that VeryDarkMan is an ungrateful person and she doesn’t like people who disrespect her like he did. In her words:

“This boy na very ungrateful person and I Saida Boj do not like ungrateful people. How dare you disrespect me like that? Even when you know that I do not like to be disrespected.”
