Social activist Martins Otse a.k.a VeryDarkMan has disclosed that his recent visit to Yelewata, Benue State has left him broken.
VDM has been out of circulation for after his return from Yelewata where over 200 people were killed by suspected Fulani herdsmen raise concern for his welfare. His brother Mark Otse on Sunday called on Nigerians to pray for him.
However, later Sunday evening VeryDarkMan emerge and posted on social media page: “I really wish everyone can understand. I haven’t been able to post in the last few hours because my mind is still fkd, the killings involving the herdsmen and farmers is too much and believe me for the past 5days, I haven’t been able to sleep, I’ve been asking questions and doing research to know what the problem really is and trust me it’s been stressing me out.
“Benue killings didn’t start today, Jos Plateau killings didn’t start today it goes back to 10/15 years, same style same format and same reaction (protest, security chiefs visiting victims and affected areas) everything is the same. The question is not when does it stop, the question is how does it stop? What has the government been getting wrong, a lot of gains and a lot of losses. My mind is messed up in thoughts that I can’t explain. Anyways let me not ruin your Sunday with my worries, happy Sunday my people”.
