Popular social media commentator and activist VeryDarkMan (VDM) has once again generated reactions online following his comments on religion and the use of deliverance sessions involving schoolchildren.
In a recent video, the social media personality questioned the practice of conducting public deliverance activities in schools, arguing that educational institutions should focus primarily on learning and the development of students. His remarks quickly sparked debate across social media platforms, with many Nigerians expressing differing opinions on the issue.
While some supporters agreed with his concerns and called for greater emphasis on education, others defended the role of religious activities in schools, saying faith remains an important part of many students’ lives.
The controversy has added to a growing list of discussions involving VeryDarkMan, who is known for speaking openly on social, political, and public-interest matters. His videos frequently attract widespread attention and generate conversations among Nigerians both online and offline.
Despite the debate, VeryDarkMan maintained that his comments were aimed at encouraging critical thinking and prioritizing the welfare and education of children rather than attacking any particular religion.
As reactions continue to pour in, the discussion has highlighted the broader conversation about the relationship between religion, education, and child development in Nigeria.
