King Mitchy Returns to Social Media After False Death Reports
Controversial Nigerian influencer Mukoro Michelle, widely known as King Mitchy, has made a dramatic return to social media following widespread online rumors claiming her demise. The businesswoman and brand influencer broke her silence with an emotional video post addressing both the death reports and ongoing criticism surrounding her recent school renovation project.
Addressing Critics and Defending Her Work
In her heartfelt social media statement, King Mitchy directly confronted those attempting to discredit her philanthropic efforts. "Many people have been trying to discredit my work by questioning my intentions and dragging my name online," she stated emphatically. The influencer clarified that her motivation for renovating the school was not for public validation but stemmed from personal experience and genuine desire to help.
She explained her perspective further: "I did not renovate the school for validation. I grew up without certain privileges that many take for granted." This revelation came as she addressed the intense online backlash that followed her feud with fellow influencer Verydarkman, which had been trending across Nigerian social media platforms.
Revealing Painful Childhood Without Father
King Mitchy shared deeply personal details about her upbringing, revealing that she grew up without knowing her father. "I did not know my father while growing up and only met him once when I was eight years old," she disclosed. The influencer added that if she were to see her father today, she might not recognize him, as their only meeting occurred when her mother took her to visit him in prison.
She expressed the emotional toll of her journey: "People do not understand the strength it takes for me to keep going and build myself. I have had to stand on my own, yet people sit behind their phones daily to tear me down and insult me." Despite the criticism, King Mitchy vowed to continue her personal and professional growth, promising not to allow anyone to silence her over her work.
School Renovation Project and Online Reactions
The influencer shared a video showcasing the improvements made at the school she renovated, featuring a woman who works at the institution. This came after earlier clips had surfaced online highlighting the school's poor condition before her intervention. However, the project has faced scrutiny, with critics questioning why she posted a video claiming to have renovated the school in six days when the work appeared incomplete.
Online reactions to her return were mixed and often mocking:
- Many fans referred to her as "Lazarus" in reference to her resurrection from rumored death
- Some demanded apologies if she was indeed alive
- Others questioned whether her posts were coming from "heaven" or being managed by her team
- Several comments referenced her ongoing feud with Verydarkman
Background of the Controversy
The death rumors about King Mitchy began circulating after her highly publicized feud with activist Verydarkman, who had posted multiple videos about their clash. The controversy escalated when Verydarkman shared an emotional video about alleged threats to his life amid the ongoing dispute. An aide of King Mitchy had previously confirmed she was alive but "not in a good condition" after visiting her home.
The influencer's management had earlier addressed the death rumors, with one representative stating clearly: "She is not dead," while another source had incorrectly confirmed her passing after allegedly drinking a poisonous substance. This conflicting information contributed to the confusion and speculation surrounding her actual status.
King Mitchy's return to social media marks a significant moment in the ongoing Nigerian entertainment and influencer drama, highlighting both the intense scrutiny public figures face and the personal struggles they often conceal behind their public personas.
