Stanley Ontop Blames Mercy Chinwo for VeryDarkMan’s Arrest
Popular Nigerian filmmaker Stanley Ajemba, better known as Stanley Ontop, has stirred controversy with claims that gospel singer Mercy Chinwo was behind the recent arrest of social media critic, VeryDarkMan.
In a post shared on Instagram on Sunday, Stanley reacted to trending news that pointed fingers at GTBank over the incident. However, he dismissed the bank’s involvement and alleged that Mercy Chinwo was the one who called for the arrest. He went further to criticize churches in Nigeria, claiming they act like powerful institutions that use law enforcement agencies such as the police, EFCC, and even the military to silence ordinary citizens.
“GTBank isn’t the reason VDM was picked up at their branch. It was Mercy Chinwo. She’s the one who got him arrested,” Stanley stated.
He added, “Churches these days operate like another arm of government, using the police and other agencies to intimidate people.” VeryDarkMan was reportedly taken into custody by the EFCC on Friday, May 2, shortly after visiting GTBank with his mother to complain about suspicious deductions from her account.
Nigerian singer Harry song speaks on the rising insecurity in the country and shared that increasing the security income can help improve their performance in securing the country.
The singer took to social media and urged the government “TO MR PRESIDENT. IF YOU REALLY, TRULY WANNA END INSECURITY IN NIGERIA? Start by increasing the salary and allowances of the armed forces. The salary of the army, the navy, the air force, the Nigerian Police Force is too small, too shameful. Increase their salary, this job should be worth dying for. Increase their salaries ooooooo pls and pls.”
Nigerian singer, Peter Okoye from the former duo P-Square, shares his greatest fear. During a recent interview, the singer spoke about his fears and revealed that he is not afraid of death.
Instead, he said he is scared of poverty and has this fear because he has experienced it before. “I am not afraid of death. The only thing I am afraid of in this life is poverty, of being broke.
“I have tasted it [poverty] before. I have been in our house with my parents and siblings, and a bulldozer came and demolished it.”
Popular Nigerian singer, Davido, makes headlines for his gesture of goodwill. It can be noted that during the afternoon performance, the singer paused for one minute of silence to honor his colleague Wizkid’s mother.
The singer paused during his performance and said “Personally, I have lost many loved ones, people close to me, so I understand how Wizkid is feeling right now. May his mother, our mother because she was dear to me, rest in peace.”
This gesture touched many fans, as they were in awe of the singer showing a kind heart despite the usual rivalry between their fan bases.
