VeryDarkMan to Testify Before House of Representatives Amid Bribery Allegations Against EFCC

Must Read

Social media influencer Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan, is scheduled to appear before the House of Representatives on Monday in light of serious bribery allegations leveled against the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

The situation unfolded after VeryDarkMan released an audio recording featuring popular crossdresser Idris Okuneye, widely recognized as Bobrisky. In this audio, Bobrisky purportedly confessed to bribing EFCC officials with a staggering N15 million to have a money laundering case against him dismissed. Such claims, if true, could have far-reaching implications for the EFCC, an agency that is supposed to uphold the law and combat financial crimes in Nigeria.

In the alleged audio recording, Bobrisky is also heard claiming that he never actually served the full duration of his six-month jail term at Kirikiri prison in Lagos. Instead, he asserted that his godfather facilitated arrangements for him to stay in a lodge rather than the prison. This revelation has raised eyebrows and fueled speculation about corruption and preferential treatment within the prison system. Many have questioned how a high-profile individual could bypass the consequences of a prison sentence through alleged connections.

The House of Representatives, in response to these serious allegations, has taken the matter into its own hands. They have summoned VeryDarkMan, Bobrisky, and EFCC Chairman Ola Olukoyede to testify as part of a comprehensive investigation into the claims. This inquiry aims to uncover the truth behind the bribery allegations and assess the integrity of the EFCC and its operations. The presence of both VeryDarkMan and Bobrisky, who have become prominent figures in Nigerian social media, adds a layer of intrigue to the proceedings.

VeryDarkMan’s lawyer, Deji Adeyanju, has stated that his client will honor the invitation from the House of Representatives. He emphasized that VeryDarkMan is committed to cooperating with the investigation and assisting in uncovering the truth.

The House of Representatives’ investigation will likely delve into several key areas. Firstly, they will need to assess the veracity of the claims made in the audio recording. This may involve scrutinizing financial records, reviewing communications between Bobrisky and EFCC officials, and examining any evidence of a bribery scheme. Secondly, the investigation will focus on the operational procedures of the EFCC itself. Are there adequate safeguards in place to prevent corruption within the agency? How does the EFCC handle cases involving high-profile individuals?

As the scheduled appearance before the House approaches, both VeryDarkMan and Bobrisky are likely to be under intense scrutiny.
