In other news… The ongoing conflict between businessman Blord and activist VeryDarkMan (VDM) escalated as the pair got into a spat over a controversial iPhone modding project.
Blord recently shared a video showing off what he claimed was a revamped iPhone XR, upgraded to resemble the latest iPhone 17 Pro.
In the video, the entrepreneur boasts that the custom device was rebuilt in China and features similar design elements, icons, and features to Apple’s latest models.
However, soon after the video went viral, VeryDarkMan accused Blord of deceiving Nigerians.
In its response video, VDM claimed that Blord overpriced the modified phone to appear innovative, describing the project as a “cheap trick.” He insists the so-called escalation is just a ploy to mislead his followers.
Broad was unfazed by the criticism, firing back on Instagram to refute the accusations and insist his actions were legal. He claims to have a main office in China where the phone modifications are done.
In one of his posts, he wrote:
“This boy claims he owns a factory 100 times bigger than my office in China. I’ve asked my children about the address they want to visit. We’ll see.”
Blord also posted another video defending the high cost of customizing iPhones, saying the price reflects the quality and craftsmanship that goes into its creation.
