During a brief interview with a content creator, he discussed the difficulties he faces and his unsuccessful attempts to reunite with his alleged brother.

He said:

"I am Verydarkman's younger brother; he's my elder brother from Edo State. It's up to 10 years now, I have not seen my brother.

When people see me, they can tell I am his brother, and it makes me feel ashamed because of the condition I am living."
