Nigerian social media critic, Vincent Martins Otse aka VeryDarkMan has now apologised to human rights lawyer, Femi Falana (SAN).
On September 30, 2024, VDM appeared in front of the House of Representatives with his lawyer, Deji Adeyanju, after being invited to speak on the allegations that crossdresser Idris ‘Bobrisky’ Okuneye paid a N15 million bribe to the EFCC, among other things.
At the hearing, VDM took to the podium to address the matter, and he also used the opportunity to speak about his case with Femi Falana.

Recall that the Falanas, including rapper Folarin ‘Falz’ Falana, sued the dark man for allegedly defaming them on social media. The legal action came after VDM was given 24 hours to publicly apologise, which he didn’t carry out.
In a new development, VDM spoke at the House of Representatives and said that he was apologising to Femi Falana for the dent in his name owing to the Bobrisky situation.
The online critic however also added that it wasn’t his fault Falanas name was mentioned in the leaked audio because that was what surprised and irritated him. In his words:
“Right now, some people are taking advantage of what is going on to target Femi Falana and I would like to say here now that I apologise to him for the dent on his name. However, it’s so sad that his name was inside that audio, I could not believe it as well, that was the part that even irritated me more which I said I refused to believe that he would be part and party to something like that.”

Why VDM said Falz might be working with Bobrisky
Meanwhile, TheTalk.NG earlier reported that VeryDarkMan finally reacted after Bobrisky slammed him with a N1 billion lawsuit.
In his reaction video, VDM claimed a conspiracy was going on and that it appeared Bobrisky and Falz were now working together.
He explained that he feels that way because after the rapper gave him 24 hours to apologise and retract his statement, Bobrisky went from acting depressed to getting bold enough to sue him.
