Controversial social media activist, Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan, has reacted to the arrest of Ifechukwu Dennis, allegedly linked to a fake voice note involving President Bola Tinubu.
VeryDarkMan, in a video shared on social media, faulted the arrest, insisting that the individual being circulated online is also innocent and may have been wrongly identified.
He urged security agencies to carry out a thorough investigation before making arrests, stressing that efforts should be directed at tracing the original source of the controversial audio.
“The person Mr. Bayo Onanuga posted on his X account is also innocent. They should properly investigate before making arrests. They first accused me, and now they have arrested another person,” he said.
Although he acknowledged that the arrested individual could face consequences if found culpable, he maintained that the focus should be on uncovering those behind the creation and circulation of the audio.
“Although the person arrested deserves punishment, they should focus on finding the actual source of the video. They have the facilities to do that,” he added.
He further noted that the arrest may have been influenced by online claims, adding that a blogger had suggested the person seen in the viral content might be responsible.
“I heard it may be the person shown on the screen, according to what a blogger posted,” he said.
The controversy follows an earlier report of the circulation of a fake voice note allegedly linked to President Bola Tinubu, which has sparked widespread reactions and ongoing scrutiny on social media.
