Controversial social media personality Verydarkman has described Benue State as the most underdeveloped state he has ever visited.
In a viral video shared after a recent visit to the state, the influencer claimed, “Benue is still in the year 1940. It is the most underdeveloped state I have ever been to.”
He went on to lament the state of infrastructure and insecurity in the region, saying investors are discouraged from coming due to deplorable road conditions and safety concerns.
“Investors can’t come because of bad roads and insecurity.
“I’m currently drilling a borehole in Yelwata, but the people can’t continue the work because they are afraid of being killed,” he said.

Speaking in a video shared on his Instagram page, Mark said
“Good morning everyone , I am not here to say much. All I want you to do is to pray for VeryDarkMan. He has not posted for two days now. You all have been asking questions like ‘where is VeryDarkMan?’ The truth is I don’t know how to say this right now. This is so difficult for real”.
However, his call for public prayers raised concerns about VeryDarkMan’s whereabouts.
But breaking his silence, VeryDarkMan said “I really wish everyone can understand. I haven’t been able to post in the last few hours because my mind is still fkd, the killings involving the herdsmen and farmers is too much and believe me for the past 5days, I haven’t been able to sleep, I’ve been asking questions and doing research to know what the problem really is and trust me it’s been stressing me out.
