Controversial social media activist Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), has been re-arraigned before the Federal High Court in Abuja on allegations of cyberbullying Nollywood stars Iyabo Ojo and Tonto Dikeh.
, who has gained notoriety for his outspoken online presence, was brought before Justice Musa Liman on a five-count charge under the Cybercrime (Prohibition, Prevention, etc.) Act, 2015. The charges stem from alleged offensive and threatening content posted on his Instagram account, targeting Ojo, Dikeh, and other public figures.
The social media personality pleaded not guilty to all charges. His legal counsel, Deji Adeyanju, requested that the court maintain the bail conditions previously granted by Justice Mobolaji Olajuwon, which included a ₦10 million bond and two sureties. The prosecution did not oppose the motion, and Justice Liman upheld the existing bail terms, adjourning the case until July 24, 2025, for trial.
