Popular social media critic, VeryDarkMan has stated that he is not scared of human rights lawyer Femi Falana and his son, singer Falz.
VeryDarkMan who spoke ahead of the court hearing of a defamation lawsuit filed against him noted that he will not apologise to the legal luminaries, reiterating that the video he posted was to expose corruption in Nigeria and urged the Falanas to clear their names.
He said, “I just arrived in Lagos for the Femi Falana case against me at the Ikeja High Court by 9:00 AM. I came to Lagos ahead of that. As you all know, they (Falana and Falz) said I defamed them, but for me, it’s corruption that I exposed. I see things that don’t make sense, like someone going to prison and not serving jail term or the EFCC, which is expected to catch people involved in corruption, collecting money.
“That’s what I exposed. But sadly, some people, Falana and Falz, whose names were mentioned, said I should have informed them before posting such things about them. They asked me to apologize. I don’t see anything wrong with what I did, so I’m not apologizing to anybody. They should clear their name.
“I have tried to respect them, but it didn’t work because I went to prostrate for Falana, yet they insisted that I must go and apologize. Now it is time for the court hearing, and heaven won’t fall. Tomorrow, if I hear their names again, I will post it. I don’t fear anybody’s father. I don’t want a country where, when it is someone’s time, we should keep quiet.”
In September, VDM shared a leaked audio in which crossdresser Bobrisky implicated Falz and his father.
In the controversial leaked audio, Bobrisky alleged that Falz and his father contacted him while he was imprisoned at the Kirikiri Correctional Centre to facilitate a “presidential pardon” for N10 million.
Both Father and son have denied the allegations and dragged the social media activist to court.
