Human rights activist Omoyele Sowore has stated that he would not trade words with social media personality Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), over the ongoing legal drama involving businessman Linus Williams Ifejirika (BLord).

Sowore made the comment shortly after VDM appeared in court alongside BLord, where both men were seen exchanging handshakes — a gesture that many interpreted as a possible step toward reconciliation.

The activist emphasized that he would not be drawn into online spats or controversies surrounding the matter, noting that his focus remains on broader issues of justice and governance.

Observers say Sowore’s stance reflects his preference for engaging with systemic challenges rather than personal disputes, even when they involve high‑profile figures in Nigeria’s social media space.
