Bobrisky, the controversial Nigerian socialite known for his outspoken personality and flashy way of life, has made news again with a major legal move. Bobrisky, whose real name is Idris Okunneye, recently sued social media star VeryDarkMan for N1 billion in damages, saying that he should publicly apologise and take back hurtful things he said. The lawsuit is the latest in a long-running fight between the two, which has become more public as accusations and counterclaims have been made against each other.
VeryDarkMan is said to have started the case by saying that Bobrisky had done bad things, like giving N15 million to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) as a bribe. Bobrisky says that these accusations are not only false but have also done a lot of damage to his image. The case is meant to clear his name and get him paid for the alleged character assassination. Bobrisky is adamant that the accusations of bribery and earlier jail time are false, and he plans to use the law to show this.
Many people have seen the public fight between Bobrisky and VeryDarkMan start on social media sites like Instagram and Twitter, where both people have voiced their complaints. VeryDarkMan has been very open about how he feels about Bobrisky. He has even accused him of a number of bad things. Because of these claims, Bobrisky went to court and filed the case to try to get justice and hold people accountable. Bobrisky’s lawyers have said they will go after the case with all their might, stressing that the suit is not just about money but also about fixing the false information that has been spread.
In reaction, VeryDarkMan doesn’t seem to care about the lawsuit; he’s been talking about it on his social media accounts. He has kept saying that his claims are true and that he has proof of what he says is Bobrisky’s wrongdoing. Many people are interested in the public back-and-forth between the two celebrities because each new comment seems to add to the debate. Many people see VeryDarkMan’s position as an attempt to question Bobrisky’s social standing and power in Nigerian pop culture.
This is not the first time that Bobrisky has been in trouble with the law. Bobrisky is known for speaking his mind, and he has a past of going after people who attack or try to defame him in public. This new lawsuit is part of a larger pattern of him settling disagreements in public, where he uses his power and the law to protect himself. Many people who support Bobrisky think that this lawsuit is fair because they think VeryDarkMan went too far and hurt Bobrisky’s image more than it needed to be hurt. They say that acts like this should be stopped by publicly apologising and paying large amounts of money in damages.
Fans of VeryDarkMan, on the other hand, have spoken out in his defence, saying that he is just practicing his right to free speech. They say that one of the jobs of social commentators and people who have a lot of power is to hold public figures accountable. For them, VeryDarkMan’s words show how angry people are when they think certain celebrities are not being honest with their fans, and they see his actions as a brave attempt to reveal the truth. The public’s disagreement between these two groups has made the case more interesting and has led to a lot of talk about it on social media.
There are also concerns about the boundaries of free speech and the duties that come with being important in public life. As a well-known personality, Bobrisky has built his brand on being controversial and open about his life. That being said, being so open makes him a target for inspection and criticism, which can be hard. People who are famous may let the public into their private lives, but the case shows that people can only talk about or accuse them of certain things without breaking the law.
Both Bobrisky and VeryDarkMan are likely to keep making news as the court case goes on. Not only will the outcome of this action hurt their reputations, it could also set a standard for future cases like this one. Bobrisky is taking this very seriously by asking for a public explanation and N1 billion in damages. This may stop other people from making false claims against public figures.
For now, everyone is waiting to see how this story ends—whether there is an out-of-court settlement, a public apology, or a long court case that could reveal more about the personal lives of the people involved. No matter what happens, the fight between Bobrisky and VeryDarkMan is a clear example of how powerful social media can be, how words can have an effect, and what can happen when you make big claims without proof.
