Story Highlights
Martins Vincent Otse, known as VeryDarkMan, publicly accused human rights activist Harrison Gwamnishu on January 3, 2026, of manipulating defense videos to conceal financial impropriety. The online personality alleged Gwamnishu charged N2 million for free legal aid and misled a donor regarding flight logistics for a medical case.

Nigerian online personality Martins Vincent Otse has intensified his public dispute with activist Harrison Gwamnishu by releasing a detailed response to the latter’s recent defense.
On January 3, 2026, the critic popularly called VeryDarkMan (VDM) posted a video analysis accusing Gwamnishu of editing clips to mislead the public about donation management.
This reaction follows a recent statement where Harrison Gwamnishu explains refusal to refund a specific N600,000 donation involved in the saga. VDM described the activist’s two-part video release as “damage control” designed to hide the truth rather than clarify the issues.
The self-acclaimed “Ratel King” noted that splitting the defense into multiple edited parts looked suspicious for someone simply telling a personal story.
Claims of secret fees for free aid
VDM challenged the narrative that Gwamnishu provides legal help entirely free of charge to indigent Nigerians. Screenshots shared by VDM reportedly show a transaction of N2 million paid to the activist for a 2022 land dispute intervention.
These allegations add weight to the ongoing conflict, which escalated when VeryDarkMan admits reporting Harrison Gwamnishu to the Edo State Police Command in December. Otse argued that soliciting public funds while secretly charging clients amounts to indirect financial gain under the cover of charity.
The flight ticket discrepancy
A major point of contention remains the N600,000 donation meant for a young boy’s medical case in Cross River State. VDM accused Gwamnishu of deceiving the donor by sending videos that suggested he was already traveling to Calabar when he was not.
The critic pointed out date errors on the flight receipts Gwamnishu shared as proof of travel during the dispute. VeryDarkMan warned that this exposure is only the beginning and promised to release further evidence of alleged deception soon.
