Social commentator Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan, has issued a public apology to the Nigeria Police Force after donning a police uniform in a recent viral video.
The police condemned his actions and initiated an investigation into the matter.
In the controversial clip, VeryDarkMan humorously introduced himself as a “Chief Superintendent of Police (CSP) of the Online Division.”
The police swiftly responded, stating that such impersonation undermines the integrity of law enforcement.
