Social media influencer Martins Vincent Otse, widely recognized as VeryDarkMan, has publicly refuted allegations linking him to a viral mosque incident. In a statement, he categorically denied any involvement in sponsoring a religious agenda aimed at stirring conflict between Christians and Muslims in Nigeria.
The controversy stems from a video showing a young man being interrogated and assaulted after entering a mosque for prayers. According to the clip, the suspect allegedly claimed under duress that he was a Christian supported by VeryDarkMan, along with Deeper Life Bible Church and the Christian Association of Nigeria, to create unrest and promote a narrative of Christians being targeted by Muslims.
Reacting to the accusations, VeryDarkMan emphasized that he has never met the individual in question nor funded any religious propaganda. He stressed that he would never engage in activities that could lead to chaos or loss of life.
To prove his innocence and seek the truth, he announced a reward of one million Naira for anyone who can provide credible information leading to the identity of the man in the video.
