Famous Social media critic Martins Vincent Otse also known as VeryDarkMan, has tendered an apology to the Nigerian police publicly due to a video he made earlier.

Recall that VeryDarkMan appeared on the internet a few days ago wearing an outfit that looked like it belonged to the Nigerian Police.

Subsequently, the self-described activist presented himself as their online division's Chief Superintendent Officer (CSP).

VeryDarkMan assured his followers that he is responsible for apprehending anyone responsible for internet injustices and will not think twice about holding them accountable.

The Nigerian police were not pleased with this action; they brought VeryDarkMan to their station and accused him of using their outfit without authorization.

The social media commentator honored their invitation and apologized afterward, adding that he had no idea there was a police rank known as CSP -Chief Superintendent Officer. 

VeryDarkMan captioned his post: “Back from the police station where I was interrogated based on the post I made wearing a costume that the police claim is similar to theirs,l didn’t intend to impersonate the police in anyway and I tender my unreserved apologies to the Nigeria police force and the office of the inspector general of police and also I will like to use the medium to tell the general public to always seek permission from the police or other law enforcement agencies before using anything that might look like their uniform,you might want to use it for good but there are others that might want to use it for bad, so it’s good to get full approval before using anything that might seem impersonating @nigeriapoliceforce and also shout out to my lawyer @adeyanjudeji who is always ready to stand”
