Nedu Demands N500 Million Compensation from VeryDarkMan Over Defamation
Media personality Nedu Wazobia has issued a pre-action notice to social media critic VeryDarkMan over alleged defamatory statements made against him.
VeryDarkMan revealed this in a post on his Instagram page, confirming that he had been served legal notice by Nedu’s lawyers.
According to the legal representatives of Nedu and Tokindrumz Picture and Media Ltd, a 12-minute video posted by VeryDarkMan on YouTube and Instagram on February 19, 2025, contained defamatory and false claims. The video, titled “How Nedu Diverted NGO Scholarship Meant for Nigerians,” was described as misleading and damaging.
The legal team clarified that Nedu is not the owner of Tokindrumz but a talent under the brand. They have demanded that VeryDarkMan retract all videos concerning Nedu from his platforms within 24 hours, issue a public apology, and pay N500 million in damages for reputational harm.
Failure to comply, they warned, would lead to legal action.
Reacting to the notice in a video, VeryDarkMan acknowledged the lawsuit and told his followers to brace for a court battle.
