VeryDarkMan mourns young entrepreneur killed after kind gesture
Nigerian activist VeryDarkMan has shared a heartbreaking video online as he mourns the tragic death of a young fish seller popularly known as “Fish Magnet” from Anambra State. The entrepreneur was reportedly kidnapped and killed shortly after reaching out to VeryDarkMan with a kind offer to send him fish as a gesture of appreciation.
In the emotional Instagram video, VeryDarkMan showed the final messages he received from the late entrepreneur, who had expressed his excitement about sending him fish. His death has deeply shaken the activist and many of his followers, sparking widespread grief and outrage.
VeryDarkMan criticized the Nigerian government, particularly over the growing insecurity across the country, especially in the Southeast. He blamed the authorities for allowing things to deteriorate to the point where innocent citizens are kidnapped and killed without consequences.
Fish Magnet’s death has now become symbolic of the larger insecurity problem Nigeria continues to face. Many Nigerians took to social media to express their condolences and to call on the government to take action to protect the lives of ordinary citizens.
A candlelight procession has been scheduled to take place on August 4 in Anambra State to honour the memory of the slain fish seller. The event is expected to attract concerned citizens, human rights activists, and security reform advocates.
The tragic incident has also sparked conversations on the need for urgent security reforms and the implementation of safety measures, especially for small business owners and rural entrepreneurs who are often the most vulnerable.
As Nigeria continues to face growing unrest and violence in various regions, VeryDarkMan’s video has added to the growing call for unity and action from both the government and citizens to confront the crisis and prevent further loss of innocent lives.
