The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has explained that controversial social media activist, Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan or VDM was not arrested as being reported but only invited for questioning by the Police.

 

The FCT Police Command’s spokesperson, SP Josephine Adeh, in a statement on Sunday evening, said the social media influencer has since been released after giving his statement regarding a matter involving him.
