Social media activist VeryDarkMan (Martins Vincent Otse) has warned politician Omoyele Sowore against impersonating him, following Sowore’s public criticism of the detention of crypto entrepreneur Blord. Blord was remanded in Kuje Correctional Centre for criminal conspiracy, impersonation, and unauthorised use of VeryDarkMan’s identity. Sowore had condemned Blord’s incarceration and vowed to seek his release. VeryDarkMan responded on Instagram, expressing disappointment that Sowore did not reach out privately, and threatened legal action if Sowore uses his identity without approval.
Key Points:
The threat signals growing tension between online activists and political figures.
Impersonation cases may now carry a higher legal risk for public personalities.
VeryDarkMan’s stance suggests wealth and influence no longer guarantee immunity.
The dispute could discourage politicians from publicly commenting on detention cases.
Public figures may increasingly resort to legal threats over private mediation.
Watch whether Sowore responds publicly or pursues private dialogue, and if any formal impersonation complaint is filed.
