Nigerian lawyer and human rights activist, Femi Falana, made headlines with his attempt to serve a controversial figure known as VeryDarkMan with a letter. However, VeryDarkMan had a response that is sure to turn heads.
In a surprising twist, VeryDarkMan stated, “If you are serving me a letter, you must also serve Bobrisky because I’m not the originator of the tape.”
ONSERVERSTIMES recalled that In a viral video by a blogger, Martins Otse known as VeryDarkMan, some unnamed EFCC officers collected the sum of ₦15m from Bobrisky to drop money laundering charges against him.
VeryDarkMan also alleged that Falana sought a presidential pardon for Bobrisky in exchange for N10 million.
But speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Thursday,and monitored by THE OBSERVERSTIMES Falana denied ever meeting Bobrisky or speaking to him.
Bobrisky never spoke to me, I have never met him, I do not know him from Adam. He was alleged to have spoken to my son Folarin (Falz),” Falana said.
He further narrated, “Yes, my son said this guy was appealing to people for assistance and called my son I think on May 4 this year – please can you give me N3 million to be placed in a special part of the prison, we call it the VIP section.
“My son asked him, are you calling me under the authorization of the superintendent of prisons? He said no – please don’t call me again, I am unable to assist you to bribe the prison authorities and be very careful since you are already in prison for an offence.
“Please if you are you are going to call me next time, you either do through the superintendent or you write a letter endorsed by the prison authorities and that was the last. Somebody now start releasing tapes somewhere and went out to lampoon and rather defame me by saying the guy has spoken to me.”
