VeryDarkMan's Brother Veryblackman Arrested Over Death Threat Against DeeOne

• Veryblackman, the brother of popular Nigerian activist VeryDarkMan, was arrested by the Rivers State Police Command in Port Harcourt
• The arrest is linked to an alleged threat made against reality star and comedian DeeOne in June 2026 for criticising VeryDarkMan
• DeeOne publicly reacted to the arrest on Instagram, directing a pointed message at Veryblackman

VeryDarkMan's brother, known online as Veryblackman, has been arrested by the Rivers State Police Command in Port Harcourt following an alleged death threat he made against Nigerian reality star and comedian DeeOne.

The arrest came on Monday, August 10, with authorities transporting him from Port Harcourt to Lagos shortly after. The development was first flagged by the Ratel Members Movement page on social media, which reported that the reason for the arrest was still unclear at the time of posting.

However, background to the case points squarely at a threat Veryblackman allegedly made in June 2026, when he reportedly said he would kill DeeOne over comments DeeOne had made criticising VeryDarkMan. The threat drew widespread condemnation at the time, with several Nigerian celebrities, including Mario Wazobia and Broda Mike, publicly calling for his arrest.

"Why? Does this have anything to do with the video he made where he pledged support for VDM against the AIG? How do you arrest someone for unknown reason... I think they trying to know how VDM got the case files... hence going after his wiglafs... to see if they know something"
