BREAKING NEWS 🚨🚨🚨

Mercy Chinwo and EeZee Concept have officially settled their case out of court!

They simply sat down, had a conversation, and resolved everything.

But guess what? EeZee Concept didn’t even inform VDM the same person who carried their issue like it was his final year project.
Some people even claimed he was paid!

Moral Lesson: Don’t carry other people’s problems on your head when they make peace, you might be the only one looking confused. 😅

Sad 💔💔

Sidney Holmes was sentenced to 400 years in prison for a crime he never committed. He ended up spending 34 years behind bars for something he didn’t do. 💔

At just 23, Holmes was thrown into prison. He lost his father while inside and wasn’t even allowed to attend the burial. 💔

Instead of giving up, he used the time to educate himself earning a theology degree, a legal services certificate, and computer qualifications. Years later, the Conviction Review Unit under Broward County State Attorney Harold Pryor reopened his case… and found him innocent. He was finally freed.

Now, the state has agreed to pay him $1.7 million in compensation. But let’s be honest no amount of money can bring back his youth or the years he lost. 💔

Moral lesson: This is why I understand why VDM always insists on logic and solid evidence. If people like Naira and others were wrongly accused without proof, they too could rot in jail for decades. Let’s always calm down and seek truth before judgment.

VDM keeps bringing people down, right? 🤦‍♂️💔

Meet Jojo.

Just a few months ago, she had barely 100k followers and engagement was poor. Fast forward, and she’s now at 530k followers with massive reach. What changed? VDM.

Back then, she had zero brand deals. But the moment she connected with VDM, everything flipped. Today, she has over 10 deals and one of them even got her a new car.
All thanks to VDM.

Jojo had never stepped foot in the UK 🇬🇧. But guess what? She’s there now and she’s proudly saying VDM made it happen.

This man changed her entire life. But funny enough, nobody talks about this part.
They’d rather say “he doesn’t support women.”

But wait — Jojo na man?

Moral lesson:
Put some respect on VDM's name. He’s out here lifting his people, and that’s a fact.

Petition Saga: “You’re Ins¥lting a Man Who Detained Him!” — Actress Doris Ogala Sl@ms Iyabo Ojo Over CP Uche Ifeanyi and VeryDarkMan Drama

Nollywood actress Doris Ogala has taken a swipe at her colleague Iyabo Ojo over her recent petition against CP Uche Ifeanyi Henry, Director of the Nigeria Police Force National Cybercrime Centre (NPF-NCCC), amid the ongoing social media feud involving controversial figure, VeryDarkMan.

In a fiery live video that has since gone viral, Doris fiercely defended CP Uche and called out Iyabo for what she described as baseless and h¥pocritical accusations. Iyabo had earlier petitioned top government officials, accusing CP Uche of enabling VeryDarkMan and handling the cybercrime case with bias.

But Doris was having none of it.

She reminded the public that this same CP Uche once ordered the arrest and detention of VeryDarkMan over comments he made about Bobrisky’s alleged ties with politicians.

“If you saw how they handc¥ffed VeryDarkMan, you’d think he was a terr%rist,” Doris said, recounting how the influencer was transferred from the gender-based unit to the NCCC and detained for an entire week a move she claimed happened when CP Uche wasn’t even in the country.

According to her, the arrest led to intense behind-the-scenes drama, including pleas from figures like music promoter Don Lulu and blogger Tunde Ednut for his release. She noted that VeryDarkMan was finally released on a Sunday after multiple interventions.

“This same man [CP Uche] that you’re now insulting the one who detained VeryDarkMan for one week is the same person you’re accusing of enabling him?” Doris questioned, adding that Iyabo’s accusations only surfaced after the case stopped going in her favor.

Doris didn’t hold back, describing CP Uche as a disciplined, corruption-free officer who once served as an ADC to a president. She criticized Iyabo for disrespecting such a senior officer, who, according to her, had treated her with dignity even granting her bail and allowing a police-mediated agreement between her and Naira Marley.

“You had no proof to back all the def@mation and cyberb¥llying you unleashed on Naira Marley,” Doris alleged. “You walked in there with Tonto Dikeh, yet you call CP Uche a VeryDarkMan enabler?”

Breaking News 🤦‍♂️💔💔

DJ Splash has come out to say Iyabo Ojo LIED. According to him, he never told her that Naira Marley gave Festus any dr*gs. He says he’s shocked to hear such a claim.

He even revealed that Festus visited their house when Naira Marley wasn’t even in the country 🤦‍♂️. To top it off, Naira was actually the one who bought him his DJ set 🤯.

This case is beginning to twist in unexpected ways.
The truth go soon surface.

Moral question:
What exactly did Iyabo have against Naira Marley

Breaking News ❤️❤️❤️

Nigerians and Ghanaians do not need a visa to visit Burkina Faso 🇧🇫 entry is now visa‑free for both countries.

This means they can now travel freely, explore the culture, and enjoy everything Burkina Faso has to offer no stress, no embassy runs.

Moral lesson: Travel should connect us, not divide us. Let more African countries open their doors to each other.

BREAKING NEWS 🚨🚨🚨

Davido has donated ₦3 million to a fan in need of leg surgery.

The fan had been trying to raise funds for months, but everything changed when Davido came across his post on Twitter. Without hesitation, he reached out and covered the full amount.

Truly, Davido has a heart of gold.

Is there any artist more generous and connected to the streets than Davido?

Moral lesson: May God continue to bless Davido for always showing up for those in need.

"IF Mohbad’s father was a rich man, would this case be like this? If a wealthy father had walked into that house and found his son already embalmed, do you think anybody would have left that place? No way. That house would’ve been on lockdown. Everyone inside would’ve been arrested, and they would’ve been forced to say what happened to Mohbad.

Don’t be fooled these people sat down, drew up a plan, and pushed out a carefully crafted narrative. But let’s ask real questions: the boys who were in the car announcing his death where exactly did they pick up the body from? Who was in the house? What happened that day that made them rush him to the hospital? Why the panic?

Very soon, I’ll be posting details about the private DNA test and what was said about it in the group. But before that, let me remind you one month after Mohbad died, Twitter influencers Pooja and Mbah posted that the DNA had been done and confirmed that the baby was his. I give them 24 hours to explain those tweets. If it turns out they were paid to mislead the public, I’ll be disappointed but not surprised.

And to anyone saying I should stop talking about justice for Mohbad — may God p**nish you."
