Woman Narrates How Blord Helped Friend Get Dream Job After Banking Layoff
Amid the incarceration of businessman Linus Williams Ifejirika, widely known as Blord, at the Kuje Correctional Centre, a Nigerian woman has come forward with a heartwarming story of how he offered her friend a life-changing employment opportunity. Anabel Oluebubechukwu shared the account on Facebook, detailing how her friend, who was the sole provider for her family, lost her banking job and found herself in financial distress.
Desperate Job Seeker's Early Morning Visit
According to Anabel, her friend was sacked from her banking position and left penniless, struggling to support her family. After a morning prayer session, she felt compelled to visit Blord's office early in the day to seek employment. She prepared quickly, took her curriculum vitae, and stood at the gate of Blord's company premises, hoping to catch his attention.
The move proved successful when Blord arrived at the office, noticed her, and stepped out to inquire about her presence. Upon learning she was seeking a job, he instructed his security personnel to collect her CV. Shortly after returning home, she received a call for an interview, which Blord conducted personally, ultimately offering her a well-paying position at his company.
Humanitarian Gesture Amid Legal Troubles
Anabel described Blord's action as emblematic of true humanity, emphasizing that her friend is among the many youths he has employed. She urged people to remember the positive contributions he has made, even as he faces legal challenges. Blord was remanded at Kuje Correctional Centre following his arraignment at the Federal High Court in Abuja on charges including criminal conspiracy, impersonation, and unauthorized use of identity related to online personality Martins Vincent Otse, known as VeryDarkMan.
In her Facebook post, Anabel wrote: "I just remembered how my friend got her dream Job from Blord company. She was sacked from her banking job and was penniless... Being the sole provider of her family she was seeking for job back to back! One day after morning prayer, one spirit asked her to go to Blord’s office and stand at his gate very early that she might be lucky to meet Blord when he visits his office... Blord ordered his security men to collect her cv and my friend left.. on reaching her house, she was called for interview and that was it. Blord interviewed her himself and she got a well paying Job. This is what humanity stands for..."
Mixed Reactions and Broader Context
The story has sparked varied responses on social media, with some users highlighting Blord's generosity while others reference the ongoing legal saga with VeryDarkMan. Comments include praise for his employment practices, with one user noting: "Blord pay so well. My babe also resigned her banking job to work for Blord. She recently got promoted last year October. I have never seen her this happier."
Meanwhile, an eyewitness named Ositadinma previously narrated details from the court proceedings involving Blord and VeryDarkMan, though he refrained from sharing specifics out of respect for VeryDarkMan's disclosures. The case continues to draw public attention, blending elements of personal philanthropy with legal controversies.
