Recall that Verydarkman was allegedly arrested by the Nigerian police after Tonto Dikeh leveled some allegations against him. The arrest came swiftly after he got into a social media back-and-forth with Bobrisky.
In a video circulating on X, Seun Kuti said that Verydarkman had done nothing wrong to be locked up. He said it was a conspiracy between the Nigerian police and Tonto Dikeh who has been trying to lock up Verydarkman.
He likened the situation to his disagreement with Obidients, stating that after he called out Peter Obi’s elitism, the Nigerian police and Obidients conspired against him.
The artist questioned the reasons for the arrest, stating that Verydarkman was not the first to talk about homosexuality in the country.
