VeryDarkMan’s Lawyer Calls Mercy Chinwo’s N1.1 Billion Defamation Suit a Joke
Deji Adeyanju, the lawyer representing social media critic Martins Vincent Otse, also known as VeryDarkMan, has dismissed gospel singer Mercy Chinwo’s defamation suit against his client as “a complete joke.”
A Magistrate Court in Wuse Zone 6, Abuja, recently issued a bench warrant for VeryDarkMan’s arrest on March 13, 2025, after he failed to appear in court over allegations of defaming Chinwo. The summons was initially issued on March 5, 2025.
Chinwo has also filed a lawsuit at the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, demanding N1.1 billion in damages. The lawsuit stems from allegations that VeryDarkMan made defamatory statements on social media, accusing Chinwo of being involved in a contract dispute and the mismanagement of $345,000 tied to her former record label boss, Ezekiel Onyedikachukwu (Eezee Tee).
Speaking in an interview with AIT, Adeyanju brushed off the lawsuit, questioning the basis for such a huge claim. “Pay N1.1 billion for what? Over what? This isn’t a court of law, so I won’t discuss our strategy here. We have no comment — it’s nothing serious, just a joke,” he said.
Meanwhile, VeryDarkMan, who is currently outside the country, has challenged security agencies to arrest him at the airport when he returns to Nigeria. He confidently stated that he was no stranger to being arrested.

And I also want to have a lot of power. And with that power comes new responsibility. And my responsibility and duty will always be to the children.”
