Nigerian comedian Deeone, real name Aderombi Adedayo Martin, has taken his feud with social media activist Verydarkman (VDM) to another level.
In a recent video, Deeone claimed to have incriminating evidence regarding VDM’s sexuality and announced that he was in Abuja to hand it over to the appropriate authorities.
This development follows their ongoing rivalry, which escalated after Deeone accused VDM of being gay during an interview on the Honest Bunch Podcast. The allegation caused major backlash, even leading to Nedu Wazobia stepping down from the show.
Deeone Teases “Proof” in New Video
In a recent clip, Deeone flaunted a printed monochrome image, which he claimed was a scene from the alleged evidence involving VDM’s close friend, Kokopee.
“Who be this wey dey open mouth like say something dey inside… like say e dey collect something? Black and white dey; colored dey,” Deeone said, adding that he had more clips but wouldn’t release them online. Instead, he planned to let the law take its course.
“If I release half of the things I have, social media go scatter.”
Mixed Reactions Online
The video sparked heated debates, with many questioning Deeone’s credibility and others urging him to back up his claims with solid proof.
• “You no dey ever show evidence complete, wetin you dey hide?” – @lasking_trobe
• “If you truly have evidence, take it to court, not social media.” – @lord.owens
• “VDM does this to people all the time. He should take a dose of his own medicine.” – @leeeymarrrrh
Nigeria’s Anti-Gay Laws & Possible Legal Fallout
In Nigeria, homosexuality is illegal, with laws carrying severe penalties:
• 14 years imprisonment for anyone engaging in same-sex marriage or civil unions.
• 10 years imprisonment for public displays of affection, or for operating/participating in LGBTQ+ groups.
These laws have been widely criticized by human rights organizations. If Deeone’s allegations hold weight, VDM could face serious legal consequences.
Deeone Dares VDM to Sue
Earlier, Deeone challenged VDM to take legal action against him, insisting that his claims were backed by proof. He also dismissed rumors that Nedu Wazobia paid him to make the accusations.
With tensions escalating, all eyes are now on VDM’s response and whether this battle will head to court or fizzle out online.
