Bobrisky: Falz Reacts To VeryDark Man Allegation
Renowned Nigerian Singer and activist, Folarin Falana, popularly known as Falz, has confirmed that he had contact with controversial social media personality, Idris Okuneye, also known as Bobrisky, in relation to legal issues Bobrisky faced earlier this year.
He also said that Bobrisky begged him for N3m to secure a VIP section at the Correctional Centre.
This clarification comes on Wednesday after Falana’s legal team, Falana & Falana Chambers, issued a letter to Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan, demanding the retraction of defamatory statements made against Falz.
According to the letter, the controversial social media post suggested that Falz had conspired with Bobrisky to “pervert the course of justice” by assisting him financially to secure a favourable outcome for his legal troubles.
In the letter dated September 26, 2024, Falz’s lawyer, Taiwo E. Olawanle, outlined the sequence of events, explaining that while Bobrisky had indeed reached out to Falz for advice, Falz firmly rejected the notion of providing financial assistance, insisting that no payments were necessary.
The letter read, “Your publication of September 25, 2024, on your Instagram page captioned “In everything and everyone that is mentioned here, I will be disappointed if truly FALZ and his father are involved in this whole Bobrisky issue…” has been drawn to our notice wherein you made some defamatory statements against our client.
“To set the records straight, our client never at any point initiated a conversation with Mr Idris Okuneye. Our client has documentary evidence that Mr. Idris was in fact the one who initiated a call.
“Specifically, on the 4th of May 2024, Mr Idris Okuneye (AKA Bobrisky) contacted our client requesting a phone conversation with him. Our client gratuitously obliged, having knowledge of the Naira abuse charges leveled against him, and genuinely believing he might require legal advice.
“Mr Idris Okuneye (Aka Bobrisky) called shortly after but instead of soliciting legal advice, stated that he was in distress and needed financial assistance of about N3,000,000 (Three million Naira) which he claimed he needed to pay some officials to be permitted to stay in the VIP section of the Correctional Centre.”
The letter added, “Our client, in the same conversation, advised him that there was no need to pay the officials of the Correctional Centre any money. However, Mr Idris Okuneye (Aka Bobrisky) stated that his lawyers had messed up his case by asking him to plead guilty to the charges filed against him. Mr Idris Okuneye (Aka Bobrisky) insisted on his request for the money which our client continuously disapproved.
“Without contacting our client, you went ahead to publish a careless statement containing multiple allegations including an insinuation that our client is involved in a homosexual affair and intended to get a presidential pardon for Mr Idris Okuneye.”
Falana & Falana Chambers demanded an immediate retraction of the defamatory statements and a public apology to be issued across all platforms where the accusations were disseminated. The letter warned that failure to comply within 24 hours would result in legal action, including a claim for monetary damages for the harm caused to Falz’s reputation.
A viral video shared by VeryDarkMan revealed Bobrisky’s allegation that unnamed EFCC officers collected N15 million from him to drop money laundering charges.
Bobrisky has, however, denied the bribery allegations. The EFCC Chairman, Ola Olukoyede, also ordered an immediate investigation into the matter.
Popular Nollywood actress, Doris Ogala, has raised alarm over the presence of armed policemen in her house.
Expressing fear, the actress who captured how the police surrounded her residence very early on Tuesday, stated that she was never invited.
While calling on the public to hold the founder of Grace Nation International Ministry, Pastor Chris Okafor responsible if they don’t hear from her again, she accused the clergy man of orchestrating yet another attempt to arrest and imprison her this morning without her legal representative.
“I have police people in my house. I don’t know how they entered my house. They said they’re from Lagos. Chris doesn’t want to leave me alone. He has carried me to three different courts and more than seven police stations.
“They have surrounded my house. If you people don’t see me again, please hold Chris Okafor responsible for my disappearance”, she said.
DAILY POST reports that the fight between her and her pastor began in late 2025, when a video of Chris Okafor’s engagement to Pearl Okafor went viral on social media.
Reacting to the engagement video, Doris called out the clergy man for dumping her to marry a younger lady after years of her sexual relationships with him.
Okafor who did not deny the allegations, allegedly paid Doris $10,000 for settlement.
Announcing the sad incident Mama No Network prays for the recovery of his losses.
Sharing the video of the incident, the actress wrote “Lanko Omo Oba Dubai house got burnt. I pray may God will recover all his losses soon.”
DAILY POST reports that Mama No Network got married to Lanko in 2014 and remarried in 2023 after separation from the actor.
Nigerian actress Scarlet Gomez has revealed that her husband does not care about her kissing on a movie set when speaking about trust and boundaries in marriage.
The actress, known for her remarkable performance in the Nigerian series movie “Wura”, made this disclosure in a recent episode of the Curiosity Made Me Ask.
During the discussion, media personality Isbaeu made a reference involving a man, questioning how people handle romantic encounters and the narratives they give afterwards.
He said, “I don’t know how you people do it, you’ll kiss somebody and go home and say it is Joshua I kissed. It’s not Joshua you kissed, it was Yomi Fash-Lanso you kissed.”
Reacting to the conversation, Scarlet Gomez emphasised trust and confidence in her marriage, stating that her husband is unbothered by her on-screen roles involving kissing scenes.
The actress said, “I’m married to a man, not a boy. He doesn’t have a small ego, and he trusts his wife. Moving on.”
The exchange has since gained attention online, fueling discussions about trust in relationships and how partners handle boundaries within the entertainment industry.
