Social commentator, Martins Otse, also known as Verydarkman, VDM has been detained by the Nigeria Police Force.

This was disclosed by his lawyer, Deji Adeyanju in a post on his official Facebook page on Thursday, October 31.

Adeyanju said VDM was arrested after honoring an invitation from the police.

He wrote, “Our client, VDM has been detained after honouring police invitation just like yesterday.

“VDM has been consistent in saying the Nigerian Police are our friends even when we all know they are not”.

While the reason for his arrest remains unknown it may not be unconnected to the recent use of police uniforms as seen in a viral video clip.

Recalls that the Police on Thursday last week, condemned the unauthorized use of its official uniforms and accoutrements by VDM in a video posted on his social media platforms.

The force said in a statement by its spokesperson, Olumuyiwa Adejobi said it had launched an investigation into the circulating video.
