Activist and social commentator Martins Otse, aka VDM, is mourning Anambra businessman Ifesinachi Onyekere, also known as “Fish Magnet”.
Onyekere, who is the son of a chieftain of the All Progressives Grand Alliance in Anambra State, was abducted by the daredevil kidnappers on Saturday.
The assailants causing mayhem in the region had invaded his residence in the Ezinifite community in Okpuno, Awka South LGA of Anambra State and whisked him away to an unknown destination.
Fish magnet as he was fondly called was, however, found lifeless on Wednesday, sparking public outrage across the country.
In a video clip on his official Facebook page, VDM could be seen weeping over the development, lamenting the deteriorating security situation in Anambra and other parts of the country.
He disclosed his resolve to visit the state on August 4th for a candle light procession for the deceased.

He said, “The kidnapping and killings in Anambra State is too much. What is the hope of the entrepreneurs, what is the hope of those going into business in Nigeria?
“I will be coming to Anambra State maybe on the 4th then Maybe we can do a candle light when it will not clash with the sit-at-home in the state.
“Well will do walking in the fish market and do some awareness on the kidnappings going on in Anambra State”.

Earlier this month VDM called out his lawyer, Deji Adeyanju, for advising him to be cautious in public matters.
Adeyanju had expressed concerns about VeryDarkMan’s safety, stating that if anything happens to him, everyone will move on.
In his reaction, VeryDarkMan, in a video, labelled Adeyanju’s advice as cowardly, stressing that anyone suggesting Nigerians would quickly move on from his potential demise is either misinformed or trying to intimidate him from speaking out.
VeryDarkMan said he believes that his platform gives him the freedom to take risks, while Adeyanju seems to prioritise caution and self-preservation.
