Days after the arrest of popular activist VeryDarkMan, a Fulani herdsman has gone viral for sharing a video where he appeals for the activist’s release.
VeryDarkMan was recently arrested after confronting a GTBank branch, accusing them of taking money from his mother’s account without explanation. His bold actions quickly caught attention online and led to his arrest.
In response, a Fulani herdsman recorded himself standing among his cattle, calling on the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to release the activist.
Despite the public outcry, VeryDarkMan’s lawyer stated that no official communication has been made regarding his release or status. However, the EFCC later confirmed they had arrested him—not because of the GTBank incident—but due to his repeated failure to respond to their invitations following multiple petitions filed against him.
