Social media activist and influencer VeryDarkMan (Martins Vincent Otse) has significantly escalated his public confrontation with Jigan Baba Oja and music producer Samklef, demanding they prove their innocence by publishing the entire WhatsApp group chat where they allegedly coordinated action surrounding the late singer Mohbad’s death and VeryDarkMan’s own legal troubles.
🔍 The Allegations & Challenge
VeryDarkMan previously exposed what he called the “Justice for Mohbad” WhatsApp group, which included entertainment figures such as Davido’s media aide Dre DMW, Iyabo Ojo, Tonto Dikeh, Jigan, and Samklef. He claimed members conspired to leak his private videos to authorities, resulting in his month-long detention for cyberbullying allegations .
In a series of Instagram and TikTok posts, VeryDarkMan demanded that Jigan and Samklef “screen record the full WhatsApp group chat—from start to finish—including voice notes” to allow Nigerians to judge their involvement impartially .
He further declared that if they believe they truly “saved themselves from wrongdoing,” they should publicly release the messages in full, voicing: “So Jigan, for now…” implying further exposure might follow .
🧑🎤 Jigan’s Response
Jigan Baba Oja has since confirmed that the WhatsApp group existed. He stated that he joined to support justice for Mohbad—not to orchestrate any negative campaign against VeryDarkMan. Jigan insisted there was “nothing hidden in the group,” calling his intentions sincere and aligned with advocacy, similar to VeryDarkMan’s efforts .
He explained that once justice ceased to progress in group discussions, he disengaged and distanced himself from the conversation entirely .
🎯 Samklef’s Position
Samklef has yet to go into full detail about the group or the challenge. However, one report claims he admitted authorship of the petition that led to VeryDarkMan’s arrest, suggesting deeper involvement in the chain of events .
Acknowledging Jigan’s participation but denial of wrongdoing, public eyes now turn to Samklef: Will he comply with VeryDarkMan’s demand, counter the claim, or remain silent?
VeryDarkMan is doubling down on exposing perceived injustice, while his critics warn of unintended consequences of mass leaks and reputational damage.
The situation highlights a broader struggle in Nigeria between social media activism and legal protection—battles over narrative control, personal rights, and the rise of digital vigilantes.
VeryDarkMan’s challenge marks a high-stakes moment in the unfolding Mohbad justice saga. By demanding Jigan and Samklef publish full WhatsApp logs, he is testing whether public figures will embrace total transparency or resist exposing personal exchanges. As Jigan has already responded affirmatively about the group’s purpose, all eyes are now on Samklef’s next move—and whether this confrontation will lead to greater accountability or new controversy.
