A throwback photo of controversial activist, Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as Verydarkman, has stirred a flurry of reactions after it surfaced on social media.

The picture, which was shared online, shows Verydarkman shirtless, posing for a snapshot against the backdrop of an unfinished building.

The photo was shared on Instagram by the activist himself, who is known for his outspoken nature and frequent visual appearances in singlets.

However, Nollywood producer, Stanley Ontop seized the moment to criticize the activist, suggesting that his habit of standing shirtless started at a young age.
