The police had previously condemned his unauthorized use of the uniform and launched an investigation into the matter.
In the contentious video, VeryDarkMan appeared in a police uniform, introducing himself as a Chief Superintendent of Police (CSP) of the Online Division.
In response to the criticism, he released a video on Thursday expressing regret for wearing clothing that closely resembles the official police uniform.
He also urged Nigerians to obtain the necessary permissions before wearing police attire to prevent any misunderstandings or potential legal issues.
“Back from the police station where I was interrogated based on the post I made wearing a costume that the police claim is similar to theirs.
“I didn’t intend to impersonate the police in any way and I tender my unreserved apologies to the Nigeria police force and the office of the Inspector General of Police.
“Also I would like to use this medium to tell the general public to always seek permission from the police or other law enforcement agencies before using anything that might look like their uniform.
“You might want to use it for good but there are others that might want to use it for bad. So it’s good to get full approval before using anything that might seem impersonating,” he said.
