Social Media Critic VeryDarkMan Condemns Celebrities for Supporting Bobrisky During Imprisonment

-
 

Prominent social media commentator and self-proclaimed activist, VeryDarkMan, has openly criticized celebrities who financially supported Nigerian transgender personality, Bobrisky, during his recent time in prison.

The controversy began when Bobrisky, known for his polarizing presence in the entertainment industry, publicly acknowledged several celebrities who provided him with monetary support while he was incarcerated. Among those listed were popular figures like Don Jazzy, Funke Akindele, Tonto Dike, and Tiwa Savage.

In a viral video that has sparked widespread discussion, VeryDarkMan expressed his profound disappointment with the celebrities involved. He questioned their motives, asking what message they intended to send by donating large sums of money to someone who, according to him, had violated the law.

“I saw names like Don Jazzy, Tiwa Savage, and I was shocked. I've lost respect for everyone on that list,” he stated passionately. “What exactly are they trying to promote by contributing to this? It’s disappointing.”

The video, which has gained significant attention online, highlights the divide in public opinion regarding the actions of these celebrities. While some have defended their right to support whomever they choose, others, like VeryDarkMan, believe that their contributions send the wrong message.

As the debate continues, the incident underscores the ongoing tensions in Nigeria’s social and cultural landscape, where actions by public figures are often scrutinized and debated by the public.

  In Nigeria, the judiciary stands as a pillar of democracy, tasked with upholding the rule of law and ensuring justice for all. However, recent events have cast a shadow over the integrity of the judiciary, as political favoritism and nepotism have infiltrated the process of judicial appointments. One glaring example of this troubling trend emerged with the recent list of appointments to the appeal court, where the wife of Nyesom Wike, the Minister of Federal Capital Territory, secured a position.

In the context of the judiciary, nepotism undermines the principles of meritocracy and impartiality, eroding public trust in the legal system.

The Federal Government has confirmed that Rivers State will continue to receive its federal allocations, despite a pending legal dispute challenging the disbursement of funds. Bawa Mokwa, Director of Press and Public Relations at the Office of the Accountant-General of the Federation (OAGF), clarified on Friday that a notice of appeal filed by the Rivers State government has effectively suspended the earlier judgment barring the release of allocations. “Since there is a notice of appeal, it has overridden the earlier court judgment. As a matter of law, Rivers State will be paid while the appeal is ongoing,” Mokwa stated. Legal Background On October 30, 2024, the Federal High Court in Abuja issued a ruling barring the Federal Government and the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) from releasing monthly allocations to Rivers State.
