Lagos State High Court on Tuesday ordered the social media personality, Martin Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan, to pay the sum of N500 million for defaming the Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Femi Falana and his son, Folarin.
Justice M. O. Idowu delivered the ruling in suit no: ID/8584/GCM/2024 brought before the court by Femi Falana.
VeryDarkMan, had in a viral video, alleged that Falana sought a presidential pardon for Idris Okuneye known as Bobrisky in exchange for N10 million.
Falana, who had denied the allegation approached the court to clear his name and that of his son.
Justice M. O. Idowu, while delivering his judgment, centered around defamatory remarks and videos posted by VeryDarkMan on September 24, 2024, linking the Falana family to controversial internet personality Bobrisky.
The judge said the court found the statements to be defamatory and damaging to the public image of both Femi Falana and his son.
According to the ruling, the social media critic knew the claims were false but published them with the intent to harm their reputations.
Besides the N500 million fine imposed on VeryDarkMan, the court also ordered him to remove defamatory comments and videos concerning Falana and his son, Folarin posted in all media platforms.
