VeryDarkMan has revealed why he was arrested and detained by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
The popular social media critic was apprehended on Friday, May 2, after a visit to GTBank in Abuja.
VeryDarkMan’s arrest outraged Nigerians, who condemned the development as unlawful and urged the EFCC to release him.
Daily reported that he was released on Wednesday, as announced by Omoyele Sowore and his lawyer, Deji Adeyanju.
Speaking in a viral video after his release, VeryDarkMan shared that he was arrested on suspicion of involvement in money laundering.
He questioned the anti-graft agency for suspecting him of the crime, hinting that he does not possess the kind of wealth to warrant such suspicions.
“They think I am into money laundering, how would they put money laundering for person wey no get money? I have done so many charities, and them they wonder how.
“They don’t know that I use debt for charity. Anyway, we are outside, with my lawyer, of course,” VeryDarkMan stated.
