Legit.ng recounts VDM's most controversial online moments involving other famous individuals.

Verydarkman speaks against Prophet Fufeyin's Miracle products

Verydarkman utilised his social media platform to criticise the prophet and the NAFDAC.

Dissatisfied with the activist's views, the Delta state-born prophet filed a N1 billion lawsuit against VDM and requested a restraining order accusing him of selling miracle soap and water.

In another viral video, Verydarkman responded to the cleric's complaint by promising to meet him in court.

He threatened to assault the court with 800 deaf people, 700 blind people, and 36 women looking for the fruit of the womb.

The critic accepted his challenge and purchased Prophet Fufeyin's miracle items.

He tested the items at an unknown handicap home in Abuja that housed around 1,500 people. VeryDarkMan chronicled the process in a 24-minute YouTube video, which showed people with disabilities utilising the items without any magical results.

However, during a live Sunday service, Mr Fufeyin addressed his congregation and stated that his spiritual wares may not be practical for everyone save those who adore him.

Verydarkman drags Iyabo Ojo during Davido's wedding

Verdyarkman and Iyabo Ojo have had a long-running feud. Verydarkman is a harsh critic of almost every move the actress makes.

He began by criticising the actress in 2023 regarding Mohbad's case. Verydarkman suspected the mother of two was hiding some truth from the public.

Verydarkman continued his campaign of calling individuals out in 2024. Even when Ojo recoiled from Mohbad's case due to the controversy surrounding it, he maintained that she was aware of some truth.

The controversial activist also slammed Ojo during Davido's wedding. He said she was not invited to the ceremony but only to the reception. Ojo went on to produce proof of her invitation and her WhatsApp conversation with Davido's sister about the wedding.

Verydarkman comes for Iyabo Ojo's Paul O

In addition, he involved music entrepreneur Paulo Okoye in his dispute with Iyabo Ojo. Paulo attempted to intercede when Verydarkman chastised Ojo for entering Davido's wedding without permission and urged him to respect his partner.

Verydarkman lambasts Obi Cubana

Billionaire industrialist Obinna Iyiegbu, popularly known as Obi Cubana, was also drawn into the fight between Verydarkman and Iyabo Ojo. 

The businessman attempted to weigh in on the dispute between the activist and the actress. Obi Cubana condemned the blogs for allowing Verydarkman to disrespect his elders.
