Social media activist VeryDarkMan (VDM) has reignited online debate with a new video defending his claims in a courtroom controversy involving Mama Pee, Randy Peters, and activist Omoyele Sowore. The dispute centers on footage from a court session related to Justice Crack’s case, with VDM accusing Mama Pee of misrepresenting events by posting an old video recorded before the judge arrived. In a statement shared on social media, VDM emphasized his commitment to evidence-based discourse, stating, “Mama pee went ahead and posted a video from when the judge had not yet arrived in court instead of the video of them during the court session that I requested for, I really hate damage control and I don’t talk without evidence. VDM never lies.”
To back his assertion, VDM released another video allegedly featuring Omoyele Sowore confirming that only members of Justice Crack’s family, one other individual, and the lawyer were permitted inside the courtroom during proceedings. This new evidence has intensified the ongoing online clash, drawing sharp reactions from both supporters and critics. Many Nigerians have taken to social media to express their views, with some questioning the credibility of VDM’s claims and others defending his right to speak with proof.
Among the critics, user @Mandela367020 dismissed VDM’s actions, writing, “Look how an illiterate is playing with the intelligence of Nigeria youths. Omo the future of this country blur.” Another user, @creature657, went further, criticizing all parties involved, stating, “Mama pee, Sowore, Randy Peters and all revolutionary members are all nuisance and irrelevant.” Some users also challenged VDM’s understanding of courtroom protocols. @Shorombus questioned, “So, if Peters was in court before the judge arrived, he would be asked to leave the court when the judge arrived? Lawyers abeg oh.” Others accused him of shifting his narrative, with @Ayomitb commenting, “This guy is so daft you quick change narrative again?”
The controversy has also sparked concerns about VDM’s public image, with user @lagostrip suggesting he is losing support: “This guy is drowning very quickly. The cause has changed, this is not the original VDM we all knew and supported. Money has changed him sad.” Despite the backlash, a segment of his followers continues to stand by him, emphasizing his role in holding powerful figures accountable. The debate remains active across social media platforms, with Nigerians deeply divided on the authenticity of the footage and the motives behind the conflicting statements.
As the online discourse continues, the incident underscores the growing influence of digital activism in Nigeria and the challenges of verifying information in real time. The case involving Justice Crack, the courtroom access, and the conflicting videos highlight broader issues of transparency and accountability in public legal proceedings. The situation is likely to remain a focal point of public discussion as more details emerge and stakeholders respond.
