Tension Builds as Supporters of Very Dark Man Plan Street Protest for Monday

 

A fresh wave of activism is brewing online as supporters of social commentator Very Dark Man rally under the bold call: “No much talk! Let’s get on the street on Monday!” a statement now trending across X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram under the hashtag #VeryDarkBlackMan.

The rising tension follows days of controversy, including allegations of unfair treatment, censorship, and targeted attacks against the outspoken influencer, who has built a reputation for calling out corruption, injustice, and celebrity hypocrisy.

Online chatter suggests the protest will be peaceful but vocal, with youths, activists, and civil rights advocates expected to gather in key cities like Abuja, Lagos, and Port Harcourt, demanding justice, transparency, and protection for freedom of expression in Nigeria.

Security agencies are yet to respond officially, but sources say local police units are monitoring the situation closely.
