In a show of solidarity, Saida BOJ, a renowned influencer, has made a public appeal for the release of the contentious social media activist known as Verydarkman. The latter recently found himself behind bars in Abuja, accused of cyberbullying actress Tonto Dikeh. Saida BOJ‘s plea is directed towards the authorities, urging them to reconsider Verydarkman’s detention.
Addressing the situation via social media, Saida BOJ highlighted Verydarkman’s reputation for stirring the pot but argued that this shouldn’t warrant indefinite detention. She likened him to a troublesome sibling who, despite causing frustration, is still part of the family. “They can’t just leave him in jail,” she asserted, calling for empathy and action from those in power.
The influencer’s post quickly garnered attention, sparking a range of reactions among netizens. Some echoed her call for Verydarkman’s release, while others humorously suggested that a stint in detention might serve as a reality check for the controversial figure.
User @yomide__xx_ humorously noted, “If he comes out now, he will still insult you for this video you made!!! Let him stay there till December for the sake of Christmas, then they can release him.” Meanwhile, @ekua_paulla raised questions about the seemingly untouchable status of other celebrities and pondered whether Verydarkman was being made a scapegoat.
As discussions unfold online, the debate around Verydarkman’s arrest highlights broader issues of freedom of speech, the impact of social media on personal reputations, and the boundaries of cyber conduct. While some advocate for his immediate release, citing concerns over the precedent his detention sets, others view the legal action as a necessary step towards accountability in the digital age.
Saida BOJ’s vocal support for Verydarkman adds a significant voice to the ongoing conversation, underscoring the complexities of navigating social media controversies and the legal system’s role in mediating such disputes. As the situation develops, the community watches closely to see how authorities will respond to the mounting public pressure and what implications this case might have for digital discourse in Nigeria.
