In a recent video shared on her TikTok page, Vee suggested that these supporters might require a mental evaluation.

âI donât believe in freedom fighters. I donât believe in an individual coming out to say they want to fight for the rights of Nigerians. It doesnât make sense to me. I think it should be a joint effort. I think everybody should be involved. And I definitely donât think it should be VDM doing it.
âI donât have much to say about the Falz versus VDM issue, by the way. They say he [Falz] is going to court. Lovely. Aside from Falz, Bobrisky and VDMâs case, I feel like anybody defending VDM is not somebody I want to have a conversation with.
âThis country makes no sense. People are suffering. People are hungry. Anybody defending this government needs mental evaluation. Anybody defending VDM⊠We donât even know what his [VDMâs] achievements are. Whatâs he trying to achieve? I personally do not know and I will not defend him. When I come across a VDM video, I skip it. When they are talking about the guy, I will continue to skip.â
BIZTELLERS reports that human rights lawyer Femi Falana and rapper Falz issued a 24-hour ultimatum to VeryDarkMan (VDM) to retract his statements, accusing them of facilitating a soft landing for controversial cross-dresser Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky, during his jail sentence.
However, VDM released a video denying any defamation of Chief Falana and Falz.
In response to his refusal to retract the publication, Folakemi Falana, an entertainment lawyer and Falz’s sister, has threatened legal action against VDM.
