Social commentator VeryDarkMan has responded to criticism over his appearance at a Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) conference, saying critics have ignored the key issues he raised about insecurity.
In a statement, VeryDarkMan said the discussion surrounding his invitation had shifted away from the points he made about insecurity and individuals allegedly benefiting from the situation.
“Since you people have decided to ignore all the points I made at the NBA Conference about insecurity and the people benefiting from it, you instead decided to judge me and say I’m not fit to be there because I’m not a lawyer.”
His comments come after his participation at the NBA conference sparked debate over whether a non-lawyer should have been invited to address members of the legal profession.
VeryDarkMan maintained that his contribution was based on his experiences and observations concerning insecurity rather than an attempt to teach law.
The controversy has continued to generate reactions online, with discussions focusing both on the appropriateness of his invitation and the substance of the security concerns he raised during the conference.
