VeryDarkMan storms Auchi, blocks Dangote trucks over unpaid medical bills of accident victim

Social media activist Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), on Monday led a protest in Auchi, Edo State, blocking Dangote trucks from plying the roads until the company takes responsibility for accident victims.

VDM, alongside students of Auchi Polytechnic, demanded justice for Ruth Otabor, sister of BBNaija winner Phyna, whose leg was amputated after she was crushed by a Dangote truck just days after her graduation.

In videos shared online, the activist was seen addressing a large crowd of students, insisting that Dangote must not only settle Ruth’s medical bills but also provide compensation for other victims of similar accidents.

“The people of Auchi have no choice but to stop all Dangote drivers from using our roads until the company compensates victims, regulates its drivers, and takes full responsibility,” he stated.

The protest came on the heels of another tragic incident involving a Dangote truck.

Just a day earlier, three people lost their lives near Omega Fire Ministry, Auchi, when a Dangote truck and another vehicle rammed into a Mercedes Benz GLK.

Reacting to the incident, Apostle Johnson Suleman, General Overseer of Omega Fire Ministry, condemned the tragedy, describing it as “an avoidable loss of lives caused by reckless driving.”

VDM, angered by the recurring crashes, vowed that Dangote trucks would not be allowed to ply Auchi roads until justice is served and adequate compensation is given to the victims.
