Internet users have expressed displeasure over the reported physical fight onboard a commercial flight between social media influencer, Martins Otse, popularly known as Verydarkman (VDM), and comedian Freedom Atsepoyi, aka as Mr Jollof.

A viral video on Monday captured the duo trading blows inside a United Nigeria Airlines flight reportedly travelling from Asaba, Delta State, to Lagos.

The development reportedly caused disruption of the flight as other passengers struggled to separate them, and the airline’s crew later deboarded the two celebrities and handed them over to airport security for further interrogation.

However, VDM swiftly took to his Facebook page to confirm the altercation, boasting that he had “dealt with” Mr Jollof.

In a follow-up footage, he lifted his shirt to display bite marks on his chest, saying, “He bite me… man wey dey bite, he no shame.

“I enter plane, I see am. I say, ‘You go slap me today o.’ I go near am, he punch me.

“He don spoil my tattoo now with him teeth wey he no brush.”

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the brawl has generated a buzz on social media as VDM and Mr Jollof have a history of online clashes.

While many internet users lambasted both of them, others stood behind their favourite celebrity.
