•VDM and Tyla
Social media activist, Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), has warned the organisers of Lagos Concert for South African singer, Tyla, to put a stop to the planning and organisation as he was ready to lead other Nigerians to disrupt the show due to the recent renewed xenophobic attacks against Nigerians and other Africans in the rainbow nation.
VDM, who lamented ongoing xenophobic attacks on Nigerians in South Africa, stated in a video he posted on his official Facebook page yesterday that the concert will not happen.
According to him, the South African singer will not be allowed to profit from Nigerians, whom some South Africans have repeatedly despised, reports Daily Independent.
He said, “There will be no Tyla concert in Nigeria. It is not happening. This is a warning to the organisers and the show promoters bringing Tyla to Nigeria. That show is not happening.
“Not when Chidinma Adetshina is battling deportation in South African court. Now you want to bring in Tyla and sell tickets so that Tyla will make money off Nigerians. The same Nigerians that South Africans hate so much.
“This is a warning to you, if you go ahead with that show, we will come to the venue and we will bring the show down.”
Several Nigerians have called for a total boycott of the concert to retaliate against the attacks on Nigerians in South Africa.
This comes on the heels of Tyla’s management releasing her world tour schedule, which includes a performance in Lagos on December 22, 2026.
