More details about Nigerian critic Verydarkman’s arrest have emerged online.

According to a new testimony by VDM’s close friend and upcoming singer, Kokopee, the arrest was brutal and traumatising. He claimed that armed men invaded the bank, assaulting VDM in front of his elderly mother.
An eyewitness told Kokopee that VDM was violently beaten and dragged out of the bank. Before the assault, the social media critic was purportedly covered in a dark cloth, possibly to confuse and destabilise him.
Kokopee further stated that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) is targeting VDM because he has critical information regarding the agency.
He also claimed that there had been attempts to poison VDM and promised to provide additional information in due course.
In his caption, he wrote:
“Vdm’s mother is the biggest victim here , @gtbank failed to think about her mental health before agreeing to this act with the efcc 😭😭!!”

“Give us the branch address of that GTBank and location please, we wan enter there on Monday please.”
khaycee.o said:
“If you’re serious about protesting against GTBank, the most powerful move is to withdraw your money. Banks don’t just store your money—they invest it. When large numbers of people pull their funds, it sends a strong message and can seriously affect the bank’s operations. A silent mass withdrawal can speak louder than any online trend.”

“You hate this guy? Fine but pray Nigeria dosent happen to your family or someone close to you. That day you will know that as an activist you don’t need to like all his content but the important things is what we value. The only person giving me hope for Nigeria is nowhere to be found shame to the so call giant of Africa. Let the giant go learn from toreee. All we giants are good at is killing, hating ourselves and expect the westerners to respect us. 😢😢.”
