A quiet social media move has triggered loud speculation as Nigerian influencer VeryDarkMan and Afrobeat singer Seun Kuti appear to have fallen out.
Both men have unfollowed each other on Instagram, a development that has quickly fueled talk of a possible rift between the once-aligned figures. The timing has only intensified the buzz, coming amid VeryDarkMan’s ongoing legal dispute with Blord.
While neither party has issued an official explanation, Seun Kuti added fuel to the speculation with a pointed message on his Instagram story. In the now-viral post, the singer mocked VeryDarkMan’s fanbase, popularly known as “Ratel.”
“You are rats, not ratels. Why una dey disguise?” he wrote, a remark that has since sparked heated reactions across social media platforms.
The apparent tension marks a sharp turn from recent events, where VeryDarkMan publicly backed Seun Kuti during his clash with Wizkid over alleged disrespect toward Afrobeat legend Fela Kuti’s legacy.
Their relationship had been viewed as close, with VeryDarkMan even visiting Fela Kuti’s gravesite in a controversial display that drew widespread attention online.
Now, that perceived alliance appears uncertain. The absence of clear details has left room for speculation, with fans dissecting every online move for clues.
Whether this is a temporary fallout or the beginning of a deeper split remains unclear—but for now, the silence from both camps is only making the situation louder.
