Linus Williams, a cryptocurrency billionaire known as Blord, has been granted bail after three days in police custody.
Verydarkman, an outspoken critic, shared an update on his Instagram page, revealing that Blord was released after much ‘begging and crying.’
This followed reports from the social critic, who claimed credit for the tech millionaire’s arrest on fraud charges.
Days after the arrest, Verydarkman confirmed that Blord had been released on bail and would return to the police the following week to account for the crimes against him.
VDM claimed that the bail was granted following Blord’s dramatic pleading and tears, with an emphasis on justice for the alleged crimes against the techie.
The critic further criticized the businessman for bragging about being above the law, referring to himself as “Mr Influential.”
“After much begging and crying blord is out and he will be going back next week to answer for all his @l.leged cr!m€ I believe the @npf_nccc will not compromise and Justice will be upheld, see you next week Mr influential,” he captioned the video.
It is worth noting that the Blord Group denied the businessman’s arrest while stressing that he was only invited for interrogation. The statement further stated that Verydarkman has no authority to make such an arrest and hence called his bluff.

In other news, a video has appeared online in which a Nigerian man criticizes famed Nigerian rapper Zlatan Ibile for allowing his child to refer to street youngsters begging for help on the streets as “bad boys.”
Two days ago, a video showing Zlatan Ibile and his 3-year-old son Shiloh riding in their car in Lagos went viral online, eliciting conflicting opinions.
In the video, rapper Zlatan Ibile’s son fidgeted when street boys approached their car and hailed his father. When Zlatan asked his kid why he moved away, Shiloh responded honestly, “There are too many bad boys.”
The video, however, elicited a variety of opinions online. While some netizens laughed because they thought it entertaining, others chastised Zlatan for failing to correct his son’s perception of the street boys.
In response to the video, a man who claims to know Zlatan Ibile’s childhood story calls out the singer, emphasizing that the singer was a street boy before rising to fame in Nigeria’s music industry.
He described how he, Zlatan Ibile, and others from Ipaja would go play football at Fela Field, noting that Zlatan was a very broke street boy at the time.
He went on to respond: “How would Zlatan Ibile feel if someone referred to him as a bad boy just because he was a street boy seeking assistance?”
The man criticized Zlatan Ibile’s attitude in the video, pointing out that the same poor people his son referred to as bad boys are streaming his songs.
