Mercy Chinwo: PFN Accuses VeryDarkMan Of Releasing Fake Press Statement

The Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) has accused controversial social media influencer, Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), of fabricating and circulating a false press release in its name over the feud between him and gospel singer Mercy Chinwo.

According to PFN officials, the alleged press statement misrepresented the organisation’s stance on the sensitive issue, misleading the public. The PFN has strongly condemned the act, emphasising the dangers of misinformation and its potential to harm public trust.
