Social media activist VeryDarkMan has alleged that fellow activist Livinus Nwosu was questioned about him during his reported detention by the Department of State Services (DSS).

In a video shared online, VDM claimed that after Nwosu was released from custody, the activist reached out to him with details of what allegedly transpired while he was being held.

Alleged questioning over civic campaigns

According to VeryDarkMan, Nwosu told him that security operatives asked questions about his whereabouts and attempted to find out when he would be returning to Nigeria.

He further alleged that DSS officials asked Nwosu to write down the names of individuals linked to voter awareness and civic sensitisation campaigns, including his own name and that of popular influencer Tunde Ednut.

Claims from messages after release

VDM said the information came from messages he reportedly received from Nwosu after his release from detention, adding that the claims raised concerns about the targeting of civic activists involved in voter education.

Return to Nigeria and reaction

The activist also shared details of his planned return to Nigeria, stating that he is not afraid of arrest if authorities choose to invite or question him.

He maintained that civic sensitisation efforts should not be discouraged, insisting that voter awareness remains essential ahead of future elections.

Public reaction and wider concerns

The allegation has sparked fresh debate online, with supporters expressing concern over the treatment of activists involved in voter education, while others have called for caution until official clarification is provided by security agencies.

As of the time of this report, the DSS has not issued any public response to the allegations.
