Controversial social media critic, Mr. Martins Innocent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan has been granted administrative bail by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, and will be released upon perfection of his bail condition.

The anti-corruption agency also revealed that it arrested the social media personality due to several petitions received against him on allegations bordering on financial crimes.
