The police have arraigned popular activist and social media influencer, Martins Otse over allegation of impersonation of the police.
The charge stems from a recent viral video in which VeryDarkMan was seen in Nigeria Police Force uniforms acting a skit.
In a statement signed by police spokesman Muyiwa Adejobi, the force said VeryDarkMan would be charged for impersonation.
The statement reads: “In response to recent developments, VDM, whose real name is Mr. Martins Otse, is set to appear in court today following allegations of impersonation related to the unauthorized use of Nigeria Police Force uniforms in a viral social media video.
“The FCT Police Command is actively handling the case, underscoring the Nigeria Police Force’s commitment to upholding the integrity of its symbols and preventing their misuse. Interested persons are encouraged to follow up on the proceedings as the case unfolds.”
