A newly surfaced video has provided clearer details of the violent altercation between social media activist Martins Vincent Otse, popularly known as VDM, and comedian Freedom Atsepoyi, alias Mr Jollof, that occurred aboard an aircraft. The fresh footage shows the moment VDM headbutted the comedian during their intense physical confrontation.
The Viral Altercation: What The Clearer Video Reveals
In the latest video making rounds on social media, VDM is seen aggressively holding Mr Jollof by the neck of his shirt while comedian Funnybone attempts to separate the two feuding personalities. The recording captures the precise moment when the activist delivered a headbutt to Mr Jollof's bare head as their conflict escalated despite intervention attempts from other passengers.
The incident occurred during a flight, with multiple people visible in the background trying to mediate and settle the dispute between the two brand influencers. The clearer angle provides more context to the previously circulated footage that had already generated significant online buzz.
Fan Reactions and Celebrity Responses
Nigerian social media users have expressed mixed reactions to the viral video, with many tagging Xxssive, the lover of actress Nkechi Blessing, who had previously stated that Mr Jollof should physically confront VDM. Several comments mocked the comedian, suggesting the headbutt would "take him back to his factory setting" and "reset his thinking faculty."
However, other fans expressed disappointment in both personalities, noting that as public figures with substantial youth followings, their behavior was embarrassing to the country. The comments section revealed divided opinions, with some users criticizing both men for engaging in what they described as "shameless" behavior.
Root Causes of the Longstanding Feud
The physical confrontation didn't emerge from nowhere but was rather the culmination of an ongoing feud between VDM and Mr Jollof. The conflict began when VDM made serious allegations against Mr Jollof's wife in a viral video, claiming she was involved in extramarital affairs.
The activist went further to specify alleged locations where these encounters occurred and mocked Mr Jollof for his inability to control the situation. This led to a prolonged exchange of words and accusations on social media platforms before eventually escalating into the physical confrontation captured in the viral plane video.
Prior to the altercation footage surfacing, VDM had publicly threatened to beat up the comedian, declaring that nothing would happen as a consequence. He had also repeated his allegations about Mr Jollof's wife's conduct before her husband received an advisory role in the Delta state government.
