Key points:
- VDM shares a fresh clip on the Edo kidnap case. He says a soldier convoy fired, then drove off.
- He explains a long trip from Ogbelaka led to the scene. A lonely road and turned cars sparked fresh fear.
- He lifts a shot man to a clinic for care. He also gives fuel cash for the bills.
Martins Vincent Otse, known as Verydarkman, has spoken again. A new video breaks down the tense Edo kidnap chase. He says soldiers left the scene too soon. He calls that move “a stab in the back.”
Hours before, he met the Ogbelaka king in Benin. He says they talked about the bad Dangote truck road. The activist urged a plea to Aliko Dangote for repairs. That talk set off the trip that led to the clash.
Trip shifts to a lonely Akute–Benin road
After the palace visit, the king offered a driver and a cop. Their own driver had refused to go on. However, VDM says he later convinced that driver to return. The team then chose the Akute–Benin road.
He notes that the route looked calm and too quiet. Soon, cars and buses turned back with sharp warnings. Drivers yelled that kidnappers stood up the road. Still, his convoy kept going fast.
Gunshots ring out, then the soldiers drive away
VDM says he told the cop to fire in the air. The goal was to scare thugs and clear the way. A military convoy then showed up and fired too. At the time, he felt relief wash through the car.
However, he says the soldiers drove off at once. No checks, no aid, no chase, just brake lights. “They stabbed me in the back,” he says in pain. He claims they chose a VIP’s safety over lives.
He adds that his team faced great risk there. One cop and a single gun could not hold ground. If thugs had rushed out, things might have gone dark. That fear still sits heavy in his voice.
Cash gift goes to the victim’s care
Later on, the team found a man with ear wounds. A bullet, he says, went through the ear to the brain. He helped lift the man to a nearby hospital. He says staff took him in for quick care.
VDM adds that the man still fights to live. He shows a skull image and a brief doctor note. He also says he paid the fuel cash there. The king’s gift, he claims, went straight to treatment.
