Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), Femi Falana, has revealed one of his daughters has been receiving death threats over his plans to sue social media critic, Martins Otse, also known as VeryDarkMan.
Naija News recalls that VeryDarkMan, shared a voice note on social media in which Idris Okuneye, popularly referred to as Bobrisky, claimed that following his conviction and sentencing for misuse of naira notes in April, his godfather, in conjunction with the Controller General of the Nigerian Correctional Service, arranged for him to serve his six-month sentence in a private apartment.
VeryDarkMan alleged that certain unnamed officers from the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) received ₦15 million from Bobrisky to dismiss money laundering charges against him.
Additionally, VeryDarkMan claimed that Falana attempted to secure a presidential pardon for Bobrisky in return for ₦10 million.
In response to the allegations, Falana denied any connection to Bobrisky and issued a 24-hour ultimatum to VeryDarkMan to retract his statements linking him to Bobrisky.
In an interview with Sahara TV, Falana said his son Falz informed him that Bobrisky had contacted him from prison, but his son directed him to use the appropriate channel.
He said, “On May 4th this year, this guy called me from the correctional center and he asked him, are you calling through the Superintendent of prisons and he said No! He said ‘Please I trying to raise N3 million so I can be placed in a special part of the prison’. My son said Please stop calling me and if you are going to call me next time, do it through the proper channel or if you are going to write a letter, let it be endorsed.
