Social media activist VeryDarkMan, real name Martins Vincent Otse, has publicly denied serious allegations made against him by BBNaija star Phyna, insisting he is innocent and accusing unnamed individuals of orchestrating a campaign to destroy his reputation. The controversy erupted after Phyna claimed that VDM made inappropriate advances toward her during a vulnerable period following the death of her younger sister. In response, VeryDarkMan issued a strong statement, expressing fear for his safety and warning that the accusations could lead to violent consequences.
He stated, “With what Phyna is doing to me now, I won’t be surprised if they send ass@ssins after me because these people are really desperate to see VDM destr0yed.” The activist emphasized that the allegations were too severe to ignore, especially as they have been amplified across social media platforms. He also pointed to other recent claims against him, including accusations of sponsoring hate against Islam, which he firmly denied. “Also, yesterday, some people came out to falsely claim that I am sponsoring hate against !sl@m, and now this?” he said, highlighting what he sees as coordinated attacks.
VeryDarkMan explained that he initially chose to remain silent, hoping to let the matter fade. However, he felt compelled to respond due to the gravity of the claims. “I wanted to move on from these allegations Phyna made against me, but the allegations are too serious to ignore. How do you even make up things like this?” he questioned. He defended his personal relationships, stating that he has female friends of various ages, from 23 to 52 years old, and that his interactions with Phyna were purely platonic.
In a controversial remark, he added, “I even regret that I didn’t do it with you for real,” a comment that has drawn widespread criticism and further fueled the online debate. The incident has sparked intense discussions on social media, with supporters of both Phyna and VeryDarkMan taking sides. Some Nigerians have rallied behind VDM, accusing his critics of attempting to tarnish his image, while others argue that Phyna’s allegations should be taken seriously and thoroughly investigated.
The feud continues to trend on platforms like Twitter and Instagram, with neither party showing signs of backing down. As the public awaits further developments, the case has become a significant topic in Nigeria’s digital discourse, raising questions about online accountability, personal boundaries, and the power of social media narratives. The situation underscores the growing influence of digital personalities in shaping public opinion and the potential consequences of viral controversies.
