VeryDarkMan Announces Own Death in Response to King Mitchy's Passing
Nigerian social media activist Martins Vincent Otse, widely known as VeryDarkMan, has made a shocking announcement of his own death on social media. This move came in the early hours of Saturday, February 28, 2026, as a direct reaction to viral claims that influencer King Mitchy had passed away following a heated online feud between the two personalities.
Unusual Announcement and Mimicry
Rather than expressing grief over King Mitchy's reported death, VeryDarkMan took to his Instagram page to post a photo of his graveside, declaring that he was dead. He also replicated a video originally shared by King Mitchy, mimicking her style and content. This unusual announcement has captured significant attention, stirring conversations across social media platforms and drawing mixed reactions from netizens.
According to reports, King Mitchy's management disclosed that she died after consuming a poisonous substance, which they linked to the intense online clash with VeryDarkMan. Instead of responding emotionally, VeryDarkMan chose to mirror the announcement, further escalating the situation and highlighting the ongoing feud.
Background of the Feud
The conflict between VeryDarkMan and King Mitchy began when King Mitchy urged VeryDarkMan to use NGO funds donated by Nigerians for development projects. The disagreement quickly escalated into a heated exchange, with both sides trading accusations and involving prominent figures such as Seyi Tinubu and the Ooni of Ife in their arguments.
King Mitchy has also alleged that VeryDarkMan accused her of inappropriate behavior, claiming she was "licking lollipop" and suggesting it belonged to Seyi Tinubu, though she did not confirm these allegations. She warned that she could take actions to bring down pages and criticized VeryDarkMan for portraying himself as the only good person while labeling others negatively.
Netizens React to the Announcements
The announcements from both sides have sparked a flurry of reactions on social media. Many users expressed disbelief and humor, with comments ranging from hopes for resurrection to calls for the feud to end. Some netizens questioned the authenticity of the deaths, while others urged the parties to resolve their differences peacefully.
Key reactions include:
