ALLEGED N15m BRIBE: BOBRISKY CLAIMS AUDIO AI-GENERATED, FILES LAWSUIT AGAINST VDM
Popular Nigerian crossdresser, Idris Okuneye, commonly known as Bobrisky, has taken legal action against social media personality, Martins Vincent Otse, also known as VeryDarkMan, demanding N1 billion in damages for defamation and blackmail.
Earlier on Tuesday, EFCC Chairman Mr. Ola Olukoyede initiated an investigation into an alleged bribery allegation made by Bobrisky against some Commission’s officers.
In a viral audio recording shared online by VeryDarkMan, Bobrisky alleged that some EFCC officers extorted N15 million from him in exchange for dropping money laundering charges against him.
However, Bobrisky has denied the authenticity of the audio, claiming it was an AI-generated fabrication aimed at damaging his reputation.
In a formal letter issued on Sunday by his legal representatives, R.T. Omuvwie & Co., Bobrisky accused VeryDarkMan of using his name and image to gain social media attention, saying that the viral audio and associated commentary had caused significant harm to his public image, brand, and personal life.
In the letter, Bobrisky demands that VeryDarkMan immediately retract the AI-generated audio and all defamatory statements.
Bobrisky also demands a public apology to be published in two national newspapers and across all of VeryDarkMan’s social media channels, along with a written commitment to cease further defamatory publications and N1 billion in damages.
Failure to meet these demands within 24 hours, according to Bobrisky’s legal team, will result in further legal action.
“That you continued to make reckless and unfounded statement including hearsay statement that you cannot prove against our client, not minding his mental health and his general well-being, including his right to privacy and right to freedom of thought, right to life and other constitutional fundamental rights of our client.
“That one will think that after such attempts against our client that you would exercise some level of caution or restrain, considering the safety and wellbeing of our client but your goals are personal and self-uplifting for you and your backers, hence you have made it a life goal task to fulfill it by all means notwithstanding its negative effect on our client and other persons who may be caught in your unguided attacks.
“That it has come to the attention of our client that you recently published an Artificial intelligence generated audio call, claiming that same was between an unnamed individual and our client, for the record our client never had any audio conversation with this fellow who you claim to represent and that your act of defamation and blackmail should be withdrawn against our client within 24 hours of the service of this letter of demand via social media platforms.”
