Nigerian Woman Urges VeryDarkMan to Keep Blord in Prison Despite Phyno's Request
A Nigerian woman has publicly advised online personality VeryDarkMan not to pardon businessman Blord, explaining her stance in a viral TikTok video. This comes after musician Phyno pleaded with VeryDarkMan during a concert in Enugu to withdraw a petition against Blord, which led to his remand in Kuje Prison, Abuja.
Woman's Arguments Against Releasing Blord
In the video shared by @lilywise.enterpri, the woman emphasized that VeryDarkMan should not accept Phyno's request. She stated, "VDM, you see that thing wey be say Phyno do with you for Enugu stage for Enugu show, e no fit happen o. You see that beg wey Phyno beg you for stage, e no suppose happen at all." She provided two key reasons for her advice.
Firstly, she pointed out that those now begging for Blord's release did not warn him against the actions that resulted in his imprisonment. She said, "Because when Blord was doing all these things, nobody call am. I know say people go don call am tell am, e no hear." This suggests a lack of prior intervention from Blord's supporters.
Secondly, she warned that pardoning Blord could encourage others to commit similar offenses, believing they could also be freed through public appeals. She explained, "Just know that if you release Blord because people dey beg, other people are going to do the same thing. Because they know once you take action, people are still going to come out to beg for them." She added that Blord should serve his full 26-day sentence to set an example.
Background of the Case
VeryDarkMan filed a petition against Blord, leading to a court appearance in Abuja and Blord's subsequent remand in Kuje Prison. The drama has gained significant attention online, with Phyno's public plea adding to the controversy. Meanwhile, other reactions have emerged, such as a man predicting Blord might brag if released and MC ICE analyzing Phyno's motives for inviting VeryDarkMan on stage.
Public Reactions to the Woman's Advice
The woman's video has sparked various comments on social media. For instance:
- Jenny Ify said, "I swear e pain me eh."
- Shilohcutz_ noted, "So phyno come Enugu which side."
- Ledigu added, "No be lie ooo."
- Nemo shared, "Let VDM forgive Blord."
- michaelodey212 wrote, "Nah true talk my sister."
This ongoing debate highlights the complexities of online influence and legal petitions in Nigeria, with many weighing in on whether forgiveness or strict adherence to justice is the better path.
