Verydarkman, the controversial and outspoken social media critic, has built a formidable reputation by fearlessly calling out alleged fraud, misconduct, and hypocrisy among Nigerian celebrities, influencers, and, by implication, the powerful networks they sometimes represent. His mode of operation such as public accusations, viral commentary, and a refusal to back down has earned him a massive following of supporters who see him as a necessary, if abrasive, anti-establishment voice.
However, this same approach has made him a target. He posted a video on his twitter handle on the 2nd of December 2025 saying “some people are after my life”. He also stated that some security operatives ceased his passport just so they could inform him of the danger ahead as this is terrifying.
When social media clashes move beyond online “drags” and legal threats to whispers of physical danger, it is a frightening reality. The security operatives also offered him some security assistance but he turned them down stating that he’ll pass away when it’s his time and nothing can alter that.

Verydarkman operates in a grey area between vigilantism and journalism, often bypassing traditional legal channels for trial by public opinion. While his supporters laud his bravery, his methods raise questions about motive and the ethics of public shaming. Yet, irrespective of one’s opinion on his tactics, a threat to his life fundamentally shifts the narrative. It becomes an issue of civil liberties and the right to dissent.
Ultimately, this statement showcases a profound and disturbing truth about challenging entrenched interests in certain environments. It shows that the backlash against his exposures has moved from cyberbullying and police invitations as seen in his past detainments to the realm of physical endangerment.
