Man ridicules attendees of Verydarkman’s welcome party

Upcoming Nollywood actor Emeka Nwagbarocha has sparked controversy after criticising the organisers and attendees of a lavish welcome party held in Abuja for social media activist VeryDarkMan, following his release from EFCC custody.

VeryDarkMan, known for his vocal criticisms of corruption and societal injustice, was released after spending five days in EFCC custody; an arrest that prompted a protest at the anti-graft agency’s Abuja headquarters by his supporters.

However, it was the celebratory mood and fanfare surrounding his return that drew the ire of Nwagbarocha, who took to X (formerly Twitter) to express his disapproval.

In a post that has since gone viral with over 7,000 engagements, the actor wrote:

“We have a lot of foolish people per square meter in this country.”

His blunt remark stirred intense debate online, with many users pushing back at the actor’s stance, defending the celebration as an act of solidarity with a man they see as a “voice of the poor.”

Reactions trailing Emeka’s criticism of Verydarkman’s welcome party

MarquizDejavex said: “For celebrating their helper? It’s okay when they celebrate useless celebrities but they can’t celebrate the voice of the poor.”

balogun19_sarah wrote: “A lot of people don’t have father figures. They see him as their dad, you can’t blame them.”

ogbame_justus argued: “You’re one of them, and in this instance you’re a champion of it, because welcoming back someone they hold in high regard is not a problem. Even if it was thieves welcoming back their thieving colleague, allow people practice democracy my brother.”

OGNAZti defended the gesture: “It’s not foolish to welcome a freedom fighter. Though I no rate am, but this is the only person that fights for the poor and voiceless in this land! A welcome party is the least people can do for a person who’s chesting about 40+ lawsuits unto fighting for the poor!”

Iyabo Ojo Addresses Police Invitation, Threats And Fire Outbreak, Clarifies Position On Mohbad’s Death

Published

on

Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has issued a detailed statement addressing her recent invitation by the Nigeria Police Force, threats to her life, and the fire outbreak that affected her business premises, all in connection with her campaign for justice over the death of singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad.

In a post titled “For Public Records,” shared on Instagram, Ojo confirmed she was recently invited by the National Cybercrime Centre in Abuja over petitions related to a live video she recorded years ago. In the video, she had urged certain individuals to present themselves for questioning in connection with Mohbad’s death.

She clarified that her call was not an accusation but part of a broader push for justice, supported by official letters from her NGO, Pinkies Foundation, sent to the Lagos State Governor, Attorney General, Commissioner of Police, and other authorities. The letters requested an independent investigation and a coroner’s inquest.

Ojo noted that she had met with key stakeholders including the then Commissioner of Police, Idowu Owohunwa, the late Deputy Commissioner of the Lagos State Criminal Investigation Department, Ayilara, and members of the Lagos State House of Assembly, to advocate for a thorough probe.

She emphasized that she never interfered with the police process and does not have the power to dictate how investigations are carried out.

However, she decried the personal cost of her advocacy, revealing that she and her children have faced continuous threats, including a letter sent to her office days before her daughter’s wedding in Tanzania, warning her of “hell” in the coming months.

“I now see coffins inscribed with my name, videos openly threatening my life and property, and more signs that my family and business are at risk,” she wrote.

Ojo also attributed part of the hostility to her political views during the last elections, noting that her honest personal opinions had exposed her to intimidation and targeted attacks.

She reiterated that she never accused anyone of killing Mohbad but was only reacting emotionally to disturbing videos circulating at the time. She stressed that all her actions were carried out through proper legal channels and at her own expense.

On the recent fire incident that destroyed her office, she appealed for time to recover emotionally and physically while expressing readiness to continue cooperating with police investigations.

“I am fully ready to honor further police invitations or arraignments, as I have always done,” she wrote.

The actress concluded by thanking the police, friends, and supporters who have stood by her regardless of tribe, religion, or differing opinions.

“Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but God will deliver me from them all,” she added.

The demonstrators appeared to be expressing disapproval of Iyabo Ojo’s role in the investigation surrounding Mohbad’s death.

VDM Accused of Exploiting Mohbad Case for Content Creation

Prominent social commentator and media aide, Ossai Ovie Success, has criticized social media influencer VeryDarkMan for allegedly using the tragic case of late singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, for content creation.

In a statement released on Wednesday, Ossai expressed deep disappointment over what he described as a sensational and potentially harmful approach taken by the influencer. He specifically condemned Very Dark Man’s decision to interview individuals believed to be suspects or witnesses in the ongoing investigation surrounding Mohbad’s death.

According to Ossai, airing such interviews not only puts the individuals at risk but could also compromise the integrity of the ongoing case. “Interviewing witnesses in an ongoing trial and sharing their testimonies publicly may be considered a crime,” he warned. “Those interviewed could potentially sue Very Dark Man for putting their safety and protection at risk.”

He further noted that in cases involving sensitive investigations, the standard practice is to protect witnesses from public exposure to preserve both their safety and the validity of their testimonies. “Very Dark Man’s approach is more like sensationalism than responsible journalism,” he added.

Calling for a more cautious and respectful approach, Ossai urged content creators to prioritize ethics and empathy, especially in cases involving the deceased and ongoing legal proceedings. “It’s disappointing to see Very Dark Man handling the Mohbad case in this manner. I am disappointed,” Ossai concluded.

Asked what downtime even looks like for him, Burna paused before admitting,
“Nah, I don’t know, you know. I’ve never been on a vacation.”

The host, visibly shocked, joked about wanting to see the singer lounging on a beach with his feet in the sand.
“I’ve never seen Burna Boy on a beach just with his toes… I want to see your toes, bro. Not like that—it sounds mad, but…”

Burna laughed off the comment, replying with a grin,
“No, my toes are nice, you know.”

While fans might assume the globetrotting star frequently takes time off in exotic locations, Burna clarified that his only real barefoot beach moments have been in Lagos. He recalled a single trip to Jamaica but quickly added that he doesn’t count it as vacation either:
“That’s home to me too. So I can’t really count that.”

Published

Music star Reekado Banks has opened up about burying the hatchet with Afrobeats sensation Wizkid, revealing that the singer recently apologized for their public fallout during the #EndSARS protests.

The rift began in 2020 when Wizkid criticized Reekado over the release of their joint track Omo Olomo, calling it insensitive amidst the nationwide protests. Reekado, however, explained that he had advised against dropping the song, but his management overruled him.

“Not the nicest, especially considering I didn’t want to put the music out. I had urged my management at the time not to put it out, but they were convinced that it wasn’t a problem… It was so bad at the time. I was able to move on from it,” he said.

He described the experience as deeply unpleasant and said he regretted not standing his ground. “Absolutely. So there is not much that I am convinced to do these days that I do not do,” he added.

In a recent twist, Reekado shared that Wizkid visited his restaurant, where they finally addressed the lingering issue.

“Recently, he came visiting my restaurant. We had a little talk, and he was a little regretful about it. He was like he shouldn’t have gone that route. He mentioned his behaviour towards Don Jazzy as well, and he was like we are three people in the game that have only recently lost our moms. He feels sorry about the time and it’s good now.”

Priscilla Ojo Reveals Threat Letter Delivered Before Fire Gutted Iyabo Ojo’s Office

Published

on

Priscilla Ojo has opened up about a threatening letter that was delivered to her mother Iyabo Ojo’s office on May 24, 2025—just days after her wedding and shortly before the office was engulfed in flames.

The letter, written by a group identifying themselves as “Aggrieved Group,” accused Iyabo of celebrating while allegedly putting someone in trouble. It read in part, “You put someone in trouble and you out enjoying giving out your daughter in marriage abi? O ma laya o. You can’t escape in the next 3 Months as we are out monitoring you.” The message went on to say, “We shall render that your daughter married useless and rubbish it with scatter scatter. That your daughter will not enjoy her marriage. Sebi we are all there on that wedding day. Watch and see.”

Priscilla explained that her mother never saw the letter until after she returned from her trip to Tanzania for the wedding. “Sadly, on the 24th of May, this letter was delivered to my mother’s office [the same one that was engulfed in fire yesterday],” she said. “Strictly speaking, it was a threat to life and a strategy to ruin JP2025.”

According to her, the fire that broke out on July 8 was no coincidence. “The unfortunate incident of yesterday, 8th July 2025, is their PLAN B, as their plans to ruin JP2025 failed woefully.”

She also noted that the threat mentioned a three-month window of monitoring. “A close look and reading at the threat letter it read in parts ‘that in the next three months, they would be monitoring us’,” she wrote, expressing disbelief that such an attack would target an office her mother had run peacefully for eight years.

Priscilla stated that more CCTV cameras have been installed at both the office and their home. She added, “We shall eventually detect the face of the delivery agent and show the public and the police at the right time.”

While she hinted that there are deeper issues she cannot yet share publicly, she made it clear that her mother would not be silenced. “You can’t silence my mother with all of this threat and criminal acts. God is stronger than any evil, and time will surely tell.”

The family is now pursuing full investigation into both the letter and the fire incident, confident that justice will prevail.
