A social media influencer, Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan on Monday apologised to human rights lawyer, Femi Falana, SAN, over his recent derogatory innuendos against the senior lawyer.<\/p>\n
VeryDarkMan, who appeared before the House of Representatives Joint Committee on Financial Crimes and Reformatory Institutions on Monday, said he also did not believe Falana was involved in the alleged bribery levelled against crossdresser, Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission and the Nigeria Correctional Service.<\/p>\n
He said, \u201cApparently now, some people are taking advantage of what is going to target Femi Falana.<\/p>\n
\u201cHere I apologise, it\u2019s so sad that his name was inside that audio, I couldn\u2019t believe as well; that is the part that irritated me more which I said I refuse to believe that he is a party to something like that.\u201d<\/p>\n
The blogger had shared audio of a popular crossdresser, Idris Okuneye, also known as Bobrisky, claiming she bribed some Economic and Financial Crimes Commission officials with N15 million to drop the money laundering charge against her.<\/p>\n
In the purported recording, the crossdresser also claimed that her \u201cgodfather,\u201d alongside the Controller-General of the Nigerian Correctional Service, Haliru Nababa, ensured she served the six-month sentence in a private apartment and not in prison.<\/p>\n
Reacting to the development in a video, VeryDarkMan called for a thorough investigation into the matter, saying that he had no intention of defaming Falana.<\/p>\n
VeryDarkMan also alleged that Falana sought a presidential pardon for Bobrisky in exchange for N10 million.<\/p>\n
However, in a letter dated September 25, 2024, from his legal team at Falana & Falana\u2019s Chambers and signed by Taiwo E. Olawanle, Falana stated that he never spoke to Bobrisky about any alleged pardon or other matters, denying claims made in the video. Punch<\/p>\n
