EFCC denies arresting VeryDarkMan, labels report as fake news
- The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) denied reports by BBC News Pidgin stating that VeryDarkMan (VDM) was arrested based on multiple petitions.
- BBC News Pidgin had quoted EFCC spokesperson Dele Oyewale confirming VDM’s arrest and potential release on bail, but EFCC labeled these reports as “fake news.”
- The EFCC posted a screenshot of the disputed BBC article on its official social media but provided no further clarification.
- The initial claim involved VDM’s alleged apprehension at a GTBank branch in Abuja, which sparked online backlash accusing the bank of collaborating with EFCC.
