Social media personality and critic Martins Otse, aka VeryDarkMan, on Sunday, June 15, shared a video from his visit to Yelwata, Benue State.

VeryDarkMan's visit to Benue State comes following the report of killings in Yelwata as he shared a disturbing video from the alleged scene.

Sharing the video, the social media critic sent a message to President Bola Tinubu-led administration as he wrote,

"I am live in yelewata in Benue state where over 200 people were kpaid yesterday being 14/6/2025….dear president bola Ahmed tinubu is this what you promised Nigeria during the campaign, look at this video for how long will this continue, BENUE IS BLEEDING,when does this stop?"

Videos showing the moment VeryDarkMan joined the protesters, who converged on the Wurukum food basket roundabout Makurdi to demand action over the alleged killing in Yelwata have also emerged.

It took the intervention of VeryDarkMan to prevail on angry Benue youths to end the protest.

He urged them to properly organise the protest on a scheduled date with permission from the police, who would provide security cover for the protest to be successful without violence.

“If we are protesting, we must also need to use our brains. How do we do that? The only reason the police will shoot teargas is when you use the wrong pattern. The pattern of blocking the road will not yield the desired result," he said.

The video of VeryDarkman speaking with protesters is below:
