Friends and associates of popular Nigerian social media personality, Martins Vincent Otse, better known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), have raised concerns over the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission’s (EFCC) refusal to allow them to provide food for him following his recent arrest.
It was earlier reported that VDM was arrested by EFCC operatives on Friday, as confirmed by his legal representative, activist-lawyer Deji Adeyanju. The arrest has sparked widespread outrage online, with many questioning the alleged role of a certain bank in what some critics describe as a targeted crackdown.
In a five-minute video shared by Koko Pee, one of VDM’s close friends, he revealed that the EFCC denied their attempt to provide food for VDM. According to Koko Pee, they were told that the Commission would handle all food provisions for VDM.
“We are here at the EFCC headquarters, trying to take food and go and see VDM. The body that took the beating needs to eat,” Koko Pee said in the video.

A few moments later, he released another video while leaving the EFCC headquarters, revealing a standing order preventing anyone from seeing VDM or providing food to him until Monday.
As of this report, EFCC spokesman Dele Oyewale was unavailable for comment, and all attempts to reach the EFCC through its official channels were unsuccessful.
