Struggling social commentator, VeryDarkMan, has spoken out after the purported move by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to disclose his photo along with allegations of money laundering charges.
This occurred three days following his release from EFCC custody on Wednesday.
The Daily Post remembers that VeryDarkMan was apprehended following his trip to the Guaranty Trust Bank (GTB) branch in Abuja, where he went to tackle claims of unauthorized transactions from his mother’s account.
His arrest sparked outrage online, with many netizens including celebrities, and politicians demanding his immediate release.
In response to the requests, EFCC declared in a statement that VeryDarkMan was apprehended due to several complaints submitted by unidentified persons alleging his involvement in “financial misconduct.”
Following his liberation, the attorney representing VeryDarkMan, Deji Adeyanju, addressed the public.
unveiled that his client’s telephone and vehicle are still being held by the EFCC
despite being granted bail.
Yet, days following his release, VeryDarkMan broke his silence on Friday through an Instagram post, expressing worry about the dissemination of his mugshot along with allegations of money laundering and tax evasion. This photograph had been captured during his time in EFCC custody.
He stated that even though he is “beginning a friendship” with the agency, he remains committed to continuing his criticism of the EFCC for wrongfully accusing other individuals, should the money laundering label remain attached to his image.
EFCC, as we begin this relationship, let’s discuss something that could damage our friendship. The issue is that you have taken a photo of me, and the concern arises when imagining that same photo accompanied by allegations of money laundering.
But if you post my photo on your page and I notice any signs of money laundering, this could be our first public case. You would have to demonstrate the evidence of money laundering not just to me but to everyone in Nigeria.
You consider tax evasion trivial, no issue with that. However, if money laundering is involved, you must provide evidence. This implies that all accusations made against individuals are completely false.
Eliminate the money laundering. You’re aware that I noticed it and informed you I would discuss this.
