Otse’s arrest was confirmed by lawyer, Deji Adeyanju, on Sunday, June 30.
This is the third time the critic will be arrested this year.
In a terse statement, Adeyanju said: “Our client, @thatverydarkman has just been arrested by the police on the instruction of CP Igwe for exposing someone who allegedly duped a Nigerian abroad.
“Instead of the police arrest the person alleged to have duped someone, they arrested VDM on allegation of defamation.”
