Controversial social media critic Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), has broken his silence after an old video of him making harsh comments about Priscilla Ojo and her now-husband, Tanzanian singer Juma Jux, resurfaced online.
The video, initially recorded during a heated online clash between VDM and Priscilla’s mother, actress Iyabo Ojo, was recently reshared by former BBNaija star Deeone. In the clip, VDM made a bold and controversial claim about Priscilla’s future, stating: “That your pikin marriage e no fit last, that your pikin go end up like you, a single mother. It is a generation thing.”
In response, Deeone appeared to mock VDM by reposting the video with the caption: “Always wish people well.”
Reacting to the renewed attention, VDM posted a new video addressing the backlash and what he described as a coordinated effort by his critics. He recalled how false stories were previously spread about him being denied entry to businessman Obi Cubana’s 50th birthday celebration.
Calling for calm, VDM urged people to allow the couple and their families to celebrate without dragging him into the conversation. He emphasized that he has more pressing matters to focus on.
“Let the young lady enjoy her day, that’s the least y’all bloggers can do…. first Obi birthday now this,” he wrote in a caption. He added that his time is currently consumed with running his NGO and fighting societal injustices.
Recall that Verdyarkman and Iyabo Ojo have been at each other’s throats for a while now. There is hardly any move Iyabo makes that is not hugely criticised by Verydarkman.
He started by calling out the actress over Mohbad’s case. Verydarkman believed the mother of two knows some truth which she has been hiding from the public.
In 2023 the activist called Ojo ignorant for the way she handled Mohbad’s case. He also charged the actor of failing to identify the boy in dreads who broke the news of Mohbad’s demise.
Verydarkman kept up his campaign of calling people out In 2024. Even when Ojo recoiled from Mohbad’s case due to the controversy that surrounded it, he asserted that she is aware of some truth.
The controversial activist also dragged Ojo during Davido’s wedding. He claimed she wasn’t invited to the wedding ceremony but the reception. Ojo had to show proof of her invitation and chat with Davido’s sister about the wedding.
