EFCC Detains Social Media Personality VeryDarkMan Amid Ongoing Investigation

Controversial social media activist, VeryDarkMan, has been taken into custody by operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), sparking a wave of reactions across online platforms.

Sources close to the development revealed that the internet personality, known for his vocal stance on trending national issues and his no-holds-barred commentary, was picked up for questioning in relation to an ongoing investigation. While the EFCC has yet to issue an official statement confirming the specific allegations, insiders suggest the arrest may be tied to cyber-related offences or financial impropriety claims.

Videos circulating online show EFCC operatives reportedly escorting VeryDarkMan to their office, though it remains unclear whether he has been formally charged or is still being interrogated.

His detention has triggered mixed responses on social media, with supporters demanding his immediate release and accusing authorities of targeting outspoken voices, while others have urged the public to await the full facts.

This is not the first time VeryDarkMan has faced public scrutiny or controversy. He has gained a reputation for exposing alleged scams and calling out celebrities and politicians, earning him both praise and criticism.

Meanwhile, human rights advocates and legal experts have called on the EFCC to ensure that due process is followed and that the activist’s rights are not violated while in custody.

As of the time of this report, efforts to reach EFCC spokespersons for an official comment were unsuccessful.
