Falz, a renowned Nigerian rapper and activist, has demanded a retraction and apology from VeryDarkMan over defamatory allegations. The allegations claimed Falz was involved in a scheme to secure a presidential pardon for Bobrisky, who faces legal troubles over naira abuse charges.
According to a letter from Falz’s legal team, Bobrisky requested N3 million from Falz to secure VIP treatment during his detention. However, Falz advised Bobrisky that such payments were unnecessary and refused to provide financial support.

The controversy surrounds Bobrisky’s bribery allegations against EFCC operatives, who allegedly demanded and received N15 million to drop money laundering charges. The EFCC has ordered an investigation into the claims.
