UPDATE: Sowore Visits Blord in Kuje Prison, Alleges Political Influence from city boys Behind Arrest

Human rights activist and political figure Omoyele Sowore has visited influencer Blord at Kuje Correctional Centre in Abuja, making fresh claims about the circumstances surrounding his detention.

Sowore says new information suggests that Blord’s arrest was not just a straightforward legal matter, but influenced by powerful figures unhappy with a viral video.

During the visit, Sowore told reporters and supporters:

“We just found out that there is a political influence around Blord’s arrest by VeryDarkMan. It’s because of the video where he said he will never join city boys, so they want to deal with him.”

The statement has reignited debate about the case and the role of social dynamics in how influencer disputes unfold.


Sowore’s Message from Kuje

Sowore’s visit was described as both a show of support and a call for transparency around the legal process.

He emphasized:

  • Concerns about external influence on the case
  • The need for due process and fairness
  • The importance of separating social opinions from legal decisions

Supporters gathered near the prison called for accountability and a clear judicial process.


What This Means for Blord’s Case

Blord remains in custody while the legal process continues. Sowore’s comments add a new layer of public scrutiny. Key questions now include:

  • Is there political influence in the legal proceedings?
  • Will Blord’s legal team respond to Sowore’s claims?
  • What evidence supports or refutes these allegations?

The prison visit itself signals rising interest from activists and observers.


Background on the Dispute

Blord was remanded in Kuje Correctional Centre after a dispute involving VeryDarkMan’s brand and allegations of unauthorized use of images and identity. The case drew attention online and sparked debates about digital rights and influencer accountability.

As the situation evolves, observers are watching for:
