Social media activist, Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan, has denied any connection to a controversial audio currently circulating online, describing it as doctored and falsely attributed to him.

In a statement issued by Deji Adeyanju & Partners, legal representatives of the activist, the management faulted comments reportedly made by the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Mr. Bayo Onanuga, over the audio clip.

The statement said a simple verification of VeryDarkMan’s verified social media platforms would have shown that he neither produced nor shared the audio in question.

“It is surprising that, despite the resources available to the Presidency, adverse comments were made concerning our client without proper verification of the facts,” the statement read.
