Falz’s Sister Addresses Very Darkman

Folakemi Falana, the daughter of human rights lawyer Femi Falana and sister of musician Folarin Falana, a.k.a Falz, has addressed the allegations made against her father and brother by internet personality Martins Otse, popularly known as Very Darkman. Very Darkman had accused the Falana family of helping influencer Bobrisky avoid a jail sentence.

In a post released on her Instagram account Friday morning, Folakemi stated, "My parents and our firm, Falana & Falana, have been applying for presidential pardons for Nigerians absolutely FREE way before a lot of you were born or before you could talk. Slide 1 is from 2016 and Slide 2 is from 2022.

It's crazy that some Nigerians act like they can't read or think for themselves. It's unfortunate.

It's even crazier that all it takes is for a ridiculous character like VDM to accuse my dad and Falz of bribery, corruption, and perversion of the course of justice, and you suddenly forget who they are and what they stand for. For him to have the audacity to go as far as even accusing Falz of being homosexual and having an affair with Bobrisky is wild.

The fact that some of you actually believe it is what is blowing my mind.

For the record, anyone can write the president to request a pardon for any convicted person in Nigeria.

TO BE CRYSTAL CLEAR, THE FACTS ARE AS FOLLOWS:

MY DAD HAS NEVER MET OR TALKED TO BOBRISKY WHETHER DIRECTLY OR VIA A PROXY. BOBRISKY REACHED OUT TO FALZ THE SAME WAY HE REACHED OUT TO MANY OTHER CELEBRITIES ASKING FOR MONEY. THE REASON HE GAVE WAS SO THAT HE COULD AFFORD TO STAY IN THE VIP SECTION OF PRISON. HE NEVER EVER DISCUSSED A PRESIDENTIAL PARDON WITH HIM. HE SAID HE WAS REACHING OUT FROM PRISON. FALZ HAD NO REASON TO BELIEVE OTHERWISE.

DO YOU REALLY THINK MY DAD OR FALZ NEED BOB'S MONEY??? FOR WHAT?

Seeing as you have refused to do the needful, @verydarkblackman, see you in court."

Her brother Falz had also earlier given Very Darkman 24 hours to retract his statement or face legal action.
