Award-winning Nigerian singer Davido has added his voice to the growing calls for the release of controversial online personality VeryDarkMan (VDM). The singer, known for his massive influence both in music and on social media, made a public statement urging authorities to ensure fair treatment and justice for VDM, who is currently in detention.
Why Was VDM Arrested?
VDM, real name not widely known, is popular for his bold videos where he addresses social issues, calls out celebrities, and speaks against injustice. He has gained a loyal following for his fearless opinions, though they often spark controversy. His recent arrest is believed to be linked to some of his online comments that allegedly offended certain powerful individuals or groups.
Davido Speaks Out
Davido, while not going into deep legal details, made it clear that freedom of speech should be respected. He emphasized the importance of allowing individuals, including VDM, to speak their minds without fear of being silenced, as long as it doesn’t promote hate or violence. His message was simple but powerful: “Let’s be fair. Free VDM.”
Support from Fans and Celebrities
Following Davido’s public call, fans and other celebrities have shown solidarity online. The hashtag #FreeVDM has started trending again, with many Nigerians demanding transparency in how cases involving outspoken figures like VDM are handled.
A Voice for the Voiceless
Davido’s involvement is significant because of his wide reach. By speaking up, he brings more attention to the issue and encourages more people to stand up against what they see as injustice. It also highlights the growing connection between entertainment, activism, and public discourse in Nigeria today.
The Bigger Picture
This situation once again raises important questions about freedom of expression, censorship, and the role of influencers in society. While not everyone agrees with VDM’s methods, many believe that his right to speak should be protected in a democratic society.
