Popular social media influencer, Martins Otse, also known as Verydarkman, VDM, has been detained by the Nigeria Police Force.
His lawyer, Deji Adeyanju stated this on Thursday night via a post on his official Facebook page.
According to the activist lawyer, the social media critic was arrested after honouring an invitation from the police.
He wrote, “Our client, VDM has been detained after honouring police invitation just like yesterday.
“VDM has been consistent in saying the Nigerian Police are our friends even when we all know they are not”.
This may not be unconnected to the recent use of police uniform as seen in a viral video clip.
DAILY POST recalls that the Police on Thursday last week, condemned the unauthorized use of its official uniforms and accoutrements by VDM in a video posted on his social media platforms.
The force said in a statement by its spokesperson, Olumuyiwa Adejobi said it had launched an investigation into the circulating video.
