Wizkid Is Owing Me Money: VDM Reacts to Old Video Amid Begging Claims

Social media critic Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), has responded to an old video resurfaced by Wizkid’s fans, who accused him of begging the singer for money. Amid his ongoing clash with Wizkid FC following his involvement in the Wizkid–Seun Kuti online feud, VDM claimed the narrative was false. In a now-deleted video, he alleged that Wizkid actually owes him money for using his catchphrase “Don’t Play” in the 2022 song Diamond from the More Love, Less Ego album. VDM said he trademarked the phrase and displayed documents to back his claim, insisting his earlier message was about compensation, not begging. The claim sparked mixed reactions online, with many fans dismissing it and criticising the outspoken commentator.

About 10 hours ago, VeryDarkMan dared Wizkid FC to prove a point by massively unfollowing him and dragging his follower count down to 850k before the end of today—after a lady claimed that 70% of his followers are Wizkid FC.

Fast-forward to now… his followers are still sitting comfortably at 2.8 million.
No drop. No shake. No movement at all

So what’s really going on?
Was the claim exaggerated, or is Wizkid FC simply unbothered?

VDM Calls Out President Tinubu Over Failed Scholarship Promises to Nigerian Students in Morocco

Nigerian activist Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as Verydarkman (VDM), has publicly criticized President Bola Tinubu and his son, Seyi Tinubu, over the deteriorating conditions some Nigerian students are reportedly facing in Morocco. The students, granted scholarships by the Nigerian government, were promised full support including a $500 monthly allowance, and were allegedly instructed not to work while studying.

In a video shared online, VDM revealed that some students have suffered serious consequences due to the government’s alleged failure to deliver on these promises. He claimed that one student died while another sustained a broken leg after attempting to work secretly to survive. He also highlighted the poor state of their accommodation, where up to five students were crammed into rooms meant for one, lacking electricity and proper study facilities.

VDM warned that if students continue to be neglected, they may resort to cybercrime, which could negatively impact Nigeria’s international image. He also alleged that attempts by students to reach out to influencers and media houses were met with demands for money before their stories could be shared.

The activist called on the government to intervene urgently and suggested that funds meant for students may have been embezzled. VDM’s video has received praise from fans who expressed outrage at the government’s inaction and applauded his advocacy for the students’ rights.

This incident underscores ongoing concerns about government accountability in managing scholarship programs and protecting Nigerian students abroad, and it adds to VDM’s history of activism, which includes previous solo protests addressing national insecurity issues.

Nigerian Scholars Abandoned in Morocco Lament Hunger, Unpaid Rents, Medical Neglect, Urge Tinubu Government to Disburse Stipends

Nigerian students on federal government scholarships in Morocco have accused the Tinubu administration of abandoning them to extreme hardship, hunger, unpaid rents, and medical neglect. Social media activist Martins Otse, known as VeryDarkMan, released a video highlighting the plight of these students, who say they have gone without promised monthly stipends for years.
Students claim the scholarship prohibits them from working, leaving many stranded without income. One student suffered a broken thigh bone while secretly seeking work, while another recounted the death of a fellow scholar, Bashir Malami, due to untreated tuberculosis. Cases of life-threatening medical emergencies, unpaid hospital bills, and eviction threats were reported.
The scholars appealed to the Federal Government to urgently intervene, warning that their academic futures and lives are at risk. As of the report, the Nigerian government has not responded.

EXCLUSIVE: Tiger Base Atrocities—Imo Police Staff Allege Threats To Life, Abuse Of Power And Dismissal Plot By Anti-Kidnapping Unit Commander ACP Oladimeji Odeyeyiwa

Police personnel attached to the notorious Anti-Kidnapping Unit of the Imo State Police Command, popularly known as Tiger Base, Owerri, have raised serious allegations of intimidation, threats to life, and an alleged plot to dismiss one of their own by the unit’s commander, Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Oladimeji Odeyeyiwa.

In an exclusive account to SaharaReporters, a police staff member accused the commander of sustained harassment, humiliation, and professional victimisation, claiming the crisis escalated after she rejected an alleged personal relationship with him. She further alleged that she was falsely accused of collaborating with activists and social commentators, including Omoyele Sowore, VeryDarkMan and Nonso Nkwa, to expose alleged atrocities linked to Tiger Base.

The staff member said she was transferred from Tiger Base to Egbema Division in October 2025, a posting she described as extremely dangerous due to repeated threats to her life. Despite raising safety concerns and receiving assurances from the commander that the posting would be reviewed, no action was taken. She also claimed that efforts to seek help through the Imo State Government’s Chief Security Officer, CSP Shaba—allegedly a close ally of the commander—proved futile.

Months later, the officer was allegedly informed that a dismissal letter had already been prepared, with the commander reportedly blocking her calls and openly boasting about plans to sack her. The police staff described an atmosphere of fear within the Imo State Police Command, alleging that ACP Odeyeyiwa and CSP Shaba wield unchecked influence, making officers afraid to speak out.

Fearing for her life and livelihood, the officer appealed for urgent intervention, warning that silence is enforced through intimidation and the risk of victimisation. SaharaReporters said attempts to obtain responses from the Imo State Police Command, ACP Odeyeyiwa, and CSP Shaba were unsuccessful as of the time of filing the report.

Afrobeats superstar Burna Boy has donated $100,000 (approximately ₦145–150 million) to social activist VeryDarkMan (VDM) for humanitarian efforts.

In a widely shared video, VDM displayed the cash while sitting alongside Burna Boy. Later that day, the pair visited a prison facility in Lagos, taking $50,000 in an attempt to facilitate immediate releases.

However, they were unable to free any prisoners on the spot, as the warden informed them that proper protocols must be followed.

VDM announced plans to systematically collate data on eligible fined inmates across all 36 states (and the FCT) to ensure transparent and nationwide distribution of the funds. A similar process will be used for hospital bill settlements.
