Nigerian social media activist VeryDarkMan revealed that he was the one who called for the arrest of activist Harrison Gwamnishu, who is currently in custody in Benin, Edo State.
“He was arrested yesterday night. In all honesty, I initiated the call that led to his arrest. I did. And first of all, I’m really disappointed in everything, but I would wait for him to come out, and this time, I would want him to use his mouth to say the truth about what happened in Auchi.”
VeryDarkMan revealed that he made the call because the activist was lying instead of revealing the truth.
