Netizens who are following the audio released by Martins Vincent Otse, aka, VeryDarkMan, say the allegation made by the suspected speaker against musician Falz and his SAN dad Femi Falana, is normal for anyone in their line of profession.
This is even as some people say that Falz and her dad shouldn’t have got involved in the entire messy saga.
In the totally actionable audio-visuals, someone said to be the popular crossdresser, Bobrisky, can be heard claiming that he not only paid the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission N15 million to have money laundering charges dropped against him, but that his [unnamed] godfather intervened to ensure that he served his sentence in a safe house rather than in a correctional facility as stipulated by the law.
Worst of all, the voice also alleged that Folarin Falana, better known by his stage name Falz, approached Bobrisky to have his dad, Femi Falana [SAN], help Bobrisky to apply for state pardon. The pardon will cost N10m, the voice, supposedly that of Bobrisky, claimed.
Listen to the audio-visual:
Netozens have, however, weighed in, arguing that Falz and his dad are lawyers and that approaching Bobrisky to help hi to get state pardon is perfectly in order.
See the reactions:
We have no issue with Mr Femi Falana and Falz because these people are lawyers. Even if you commit mourder, they’ll still defend you in court of law. That is their job! Are you guys dvmb!!!😂 pic.twitter.com/xCRu3Sg1u7

Any lawyer would have done what Falz and Femi Falana did for their client, a request for pardon isn’t illegal VDM has no case and he is still a compound f00l.

True, but not all lawyers have a legendary father-son duo like Falz and Femi Falana. VDM must be using comedic law textbooks for his arguments!

Why are ppl only talking about Falz and his Dad part alone? I think a lot was revealed in the audio recording which ppl don’t even talk about more

Exactly. And what was vdm saying about falz “doing” ? Don’t they know that they’re lawyers? And they’re doing what lawyers do, so what’s special about what falz and his dad did?

The fact that 10m had to be pushed as bribe to get the pardon is the crime not the pardon itself.

Others see the situation differently:
Was falz or falana his lawyer in the first place? That is the question here not applying for pardon! Don’t come and be saying rubbish just so people will engage ur post.

Actually, VDM does have a case. Might not be regarding Presidential pardon, but there are way too many irregularities he pointed out in that video.

The problem here is that Falz & Femi Falana are not just “any lawyer.” They are supposed to be some of the few voices the masses have left in this country. So, aiding illegality really doesn’t do them well at all.
