Social media activist Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as Verydarkman (VDM), has responded to the emotional video shared by his elder brother, Mark Otse, regarding his recent absence from social media.

In the viral video, Mark appeared visibly shaken as he called on fans to pray for his brother, struggling to explain the situation but stressing the need for public support and intercession.

Reacting through a post on Instagram, VDM revealed that he had been mentally overwhelmed and unable to sleep for nearly five days.

He explained that the recurring killings involving herders and farmers, particularly in Jos and Benue, had deeply affected him.

According to the activist, he has been researching the root causes of the conflict, which has left him emotionally and mentally drained.

VDM further stated that the violence in Jos did not begin recently but has persisted for over a decade. He described it as a recurring cycle, where the same pattern repeats, violence erupts, citizens protest, service chiefs visit the affected areas, and life resumes without real solutions.

He questioned the government’s approach, asking what officials were doing wrong and what could be done to permanently end the crisis.

This comes days after VDM publicly criticised the president and the Benue state governor over their response to recent killings in the region.
