Social media critic VeryDarkMan has explained why he was absent from Peller and Jarvis‘ traditional wedding, claiming he currently has powerful enemies in Lagos.
Speaking during a TikTok live session shared on X (formerly Twitter), he said he deliberately stayed away from the event because he believes there is a high chance he could be set up if he enters Lagos.
According to him, his relationship with the Lagos Police has deteriorated, making it unsafe for him to attend public events in the state.
“Unfortunately, I could not go to Lagos because I have bigger enemies now in Lagos. The Lagos Police right now, we’re not friends. Immediately I go into Lagos, there’s a high chance that I might be set up, so that’s why I couldn’t go for Peller’s wedding.
I got the asoebi. I streamed everything online. It was interesting and organised. I really love that boy, Peller. Their marriage is blessed, and the child they are also expecting is blessed as well. That boy has a very bright future in this country. He’s going to use his influence one day,” he said.
Despite missing the ceremony, he congratulated the newlyweds and wished them a happy married life, expressing confidence that Peller has a promising future ahead.
In a follow-up post, VDM had earlier alleged that the Nigeria Police were trying to intimidate him following an invitation from the Lagos Police Command.
He claimed senior police officers wanted to lure him to Lagos for arrest over evidence he said he had against them, adding that he would instead take the matter to the National Assembly, the Senate, the ICPC, and the Office of the National Security Adviser.
