Phyno Urges Peace as He Asks VDM to Drop Blord Case at Enugu Easter Concert
Nigerian rap star Phyno stirred conversation nationwide after making a public appeal for peace during a high-profile Easter Sunday concert in Enugu.
The free, electrifying show held at the Enugu International Conference Centre drew a massive crowd as fans gathered to witness a star-studded lineup. Phyno shared the stage with Olamide, Evado Lee, and fast-rising talent Jeriq, who reportedly cut short a U.S. tour to be part of the event.
However, the biggest moment of the night came when Phyno invited controversial social commentator VeryDarkMan (VDM) on stage. In a heartfelt address, the rapper urged him to “let peace reign” by withdrawing the case involving tech entrepreneur Blord, who is currently detained at Kuje Prison over allegations linked to impersonation in app promotions.
The unexpected intervention drew loud cheers from the crowd, many of whom praised the gesture as a rare show of unity within Nigeria’s entertainment and digital communities.
Adding a personal touch to the night, Phyno also brought his daughter on stage, a moment that further energized fans and showcased a softer side of the rapper.
Meanwhile, the drama surrounding the case continues to unfold online. Popular comedian Dee One reacted critically to the development, issuing a 24-hour ultimatum to VDM.
He reportedly escalated their feud by printing VDM’s face on billboards across Lagos.
The incident has since sparked heated debates on social media, with opinions divided between those supporting Phyno’s peace call and others insisting that justice should take its course.
As tensions linger, observers say the situation highlights the growing influence of celebrities in mediating public disputes while also raising questions about accountability in Nigeria’s fast-evolving digital space.
