The online critic added that he is committed to sanitising the social media arena by using his position to speak out against oppressors, including online sellers.

In a statement released on Saturday, October 26, the police spokesperson, Muyiwa Adejobi, said the Force has initiated an investigation to ascertain the provenance of the police gear used.

Adejobi further stated that the Force dissociates itself from the unauthorised portrayal of its officers in the video.

In a new development, VDM shared a video of himself dressed in a carton colour-matching suit. He revealed that he was on his way to the Federal Capital Territory police station to honour the invitation.

The critic was seen on the pedestrian lane as he made it known that he was waiting for his lawyer to arrive so that they could go to the station together.
