Social media critic, Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan, has accused Nigerian security operatives of being the ‘unknown gunmen’ causing insecurity in Nigeria.
VeryDarkMan made the allegation on Tuesday while speaking at the 2026 Nigerian Bar Association, NBA, Annual General Conference, AGC, in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
He alleged that there were no unknown gunmen anywhere, but the military, immigration, and customs officers.
“We have a lot of police checkpoints in Nigeria. When you’re traveling from Lagos to Abuja, along the Lokoja axis. You have a lot of checkpoints there, but then again, a lot of kidnappings happen along that route.
“Do you know why? When you pass with your car, you meet a checkpoint. When you meet the checkpoint, the policemen say, wind down. Open your boots. You open your boots. Believe me, everybody knows who is rich and who is poor, and everybody knows the people that belong to the middle class.
“So when they look at you, and you pass, they make those calls and say ‘that red Corolla coming, somebody is there that can pay. Do you understand? It’s no rocket science.”
“The military men are the unknown gunmen. Immigration and Customs officials are the unknown gunmen. There are no unknown gunmen anywhere; they are the unknown gunmen.”
