Davido Calls for the Release of VeryDarkMan

 

Award-winning Afrobeats star Davido has taken to social media to call for the release of controversial online personality Martins Vincent Otse known as  Verydarkman (VDM), sparking widespread reactions from fans and followers.

In a post shared on his official X (formerly Twitter) account about an hour ago, Davido expressed admiration for the public’s support of VDM, while reflecting on the impact of doing good for others.

“Outside all the noise it’s good to see that the good one does actually impacts lives and people actually appreciate! The support I’m seeing for VDM everywhere is encouraging… makes one want to do more for the masses ❤️ FREE MY GUY,” he wrote.

The statement quickly gained traction, with hashtags like #FreeVDM and #Davido trending as supporters echoed his call.

Verydarkman, known for his outspoken takes on social issues and celebrities, has recently faced backlash and legal troubles, though the details of his current detainment remain murky. Davido’s endorsement marks one of the most high-profile voices advocating for his release.

Fans of both Davido and Verydarkman have praised the singer’s courage, calling it a “bold move” in a time when many celebrities remain silent on controversial topics.

As the momentum grows online, many are watching to see whether Davido's influence will sway public opinion—or even authorities.
