Controversial social media activist and influencer VeryDarkMan has returned to Nigeria after spending several months in China and immediately reignited political conversations with strong criticism of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration.
The activist, whose real name is Martins Vincent Otse, arrived in the country to a warm reception from supporters of the Ratel movement and admirers who gathered to welcome him back.
Addressing the crowd shortly after his arrival, VeryDarkMan wasted no time sharing his views on the state of the nation, expressing dissatisfaction with the country’s economic situation and the hardship many Nigerians are currently facing.
“Ratel don land, the message is clear: Bola Ahmed Tinubu is a failure and should not come back in 2027. Tinubu must go,” he declared.
The outspoken commentator argued that many citizens are struggling with current economic realities, citing the rising cost of living and mounting financial pressure on households nationwide.
According to him, everyday life has become significantly more difficult for ordinary Nigerians, making leadership accountability an important issue ahead of the next general election.
VeryDarkMan maintained that Nigerians deserve better living conditions and urged citizens to pay closer attention to governance and leadership choices as the country moves toward the 2027 elections.
His remarks quickly generated reactions across social media, with supporters applauding him for speaking openly about economic challenges, while others disagreed with his assessment of the administration’s performance.
The activist has built a large online following through his commentary on social issues, public accountability, consumer rights, and political matters.
Over the years, he has emerged as one of Nigeria’s most influential and controversial digital voices, regularly attracting attention for his outspoken opinions on national issues.
His return to Nigeria comes at a time when discussions about the economy, insecurity, inflation, and governance continue to dominate public discourse.
The statement also adds to the growing political conversations ahead of the 2027 general elections, with various political figures, activists, and commentators already positioning themselves on key national issues.
While supporters of the president continue to defend the administration’s policies and reforms, critics argue that many Nigerians have yet to feel meaningful relief from economic hardship.
For VeryDarkMan, however, the message delivered upon his return was unmistakable. He believes the country’s current challenges require a change in leadership direction and has called on Nigerians to consider that when the next election cycle arrives.
His comments are expected to further fuel debate among both supporters and critics of the government in the coming days.
