You’ll get trouble if you’re looking for it, Falz tells VeryDarkMan

The scandal started when VeryDarkMan posted a supposedly recorded audio in which crossdresser Bobrisky said that when she was doing a six-month sentence for naira abuse, Falz and Femi Falana, his father, a human rights attorney, called her.

Falz and his father “tried to get me a presidential pardon in exchange for N10 million,” according to the crossdresser’s allegations on the video.

Later, Bobrisky called the widely shared recording “fake” and vowed to sue VeryDarkMan for allegedly defamatory remarks.

Falana and Falz called for the claimed defamatory remarks to be retracted and a public apology. Additionally, VerDarkMan was ordered by an Ikeja high court to stop spreading false information regarding Falz and Falana.

Falz said in a recent appearance with the Afrobeats podcast that he talked to VeryDarkMan, who challenged him to sue.

According to the rapper, he tried to have a rational discussion with the activist but was confronted with defensiveness.

Falz called the accusations “horrible” and stressed that VeryDarkMan had no evidence to support his claims.

He questioned whether the activist was trying to achieve “heroic status” by pursuing legal action.

Falz remarked, “This guy was defensive right away; I’m like bro, try and listen.”

“What are you arguing over right now? Without holding back, he told me, “Go to court, Shebi; you’re a lawyer.”

“… I do not know if it portrays him as a hero. He did not apologise to me. People are trying to peddle me as an oppressor.” 

The rapper said that until the activist brought up Falana’s name, he had never had any problems with him.

“He stuck out his neck for the oppressed, trampled on everything my father stood for,” he claimed.

Therefore, if you claim that you want to find trouble, trouble is what I do. Let’s go if you claim that’s what you’re after.
