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.
Popular content creator and actress Kemi Ikuseedun speaks on the challenges she faces in the entertainment industry.
During a recent interview, the actress shares her joy with her role but expresses how she feels limited to only a particular role.
“Every time I go on set, it’s ‘Please give us that Mummy Wa vibe. And I understand it, the character connects deeply with people. But I always remind them that while I love Mummy Wa, I’m also an actor with range.”
“So, I’ll give you that Mummy Wa magic if the story calls for it, but I’m also open to roles that show other sides of me. Even Mummy Wa sef no be only comedy she sabi, sometimes she get depth.”
Afrobeat rapper Odumodublvck makes headline after his comment to a younger man who didn’t greet properly.
The rapper trends through a viral video of him cautioning the young man. In the video, Odumodublvck stated “Why didn’t you greet me, don’t do that again in your life.”
Fans then react to the viral video and share their thoughts on the situation.
Afrobeat singer 2Face expresses his concern and worry over the happenings in his hometown, Benue state.
It can be recalled that a massacre recently happened in the state killing up to 200 persons. The singer the expresses his sadness and prays over the state.
“My heart is heavy, terribly sad, terribly angry! It’s become a national emergency what is going on in my state, Benue state….I can’t wrap my head around it. It’s just business as usual. Condemn the killings but this thing has to stop…..”
“This thing is not funny. It’s not funny anymore. It’s gone beyond condemning. Serious action needs to start to take place”
