Blessing CEO has finally ended her long-standing online feud with social media activist VeryDarkMan (VDM), offering an emotional and unexpected public apology that has taken fans by surprise. In a heartfelt video posted on her Instagram page on Thursday, June 26, 2025, the controversial relationship therapist praised VeryDarkMan’s selflessness and dedication to social justice, calling him “a true defender of the voiceless.”
Once one of his most vocal critics, Blessing CEO admitted that her past attacks on VeryDarkMan were misplaced. “VeryDarkMan, I am no longer your enemy,” she said, fighting back tears. “You constantly put yourself at risk for people who may never be able to repay you. Everything you’re doing is admirable. Well done.”
The reconciliation comes just days after VeryDarkMan’s relentless online campaigns in defense of flood victims in Benue State went viral, drawing national attention and support from high-profile Nigerians. Blessing CEO specifically referenced his Benue advocacy, thanking him for standing up for marginalized communities when others stayed silent.
Observers say this public show of gratitude marks a major shift in Nigeria’s influencer culture, where public beefs often generate toxic drama. Blessing CEO’s decision to openly acknowledge VeryDarkMan’s positive impact has been widely described as “mature” and “commendable” by fans and media personalities.
Her statement also acknowledged that VeryDarkMan could have used his influence for personal gain but instead chose to focus on human rights issues. “You have every opportunity to enrich yourself, yet you’ve chosen to fight for others,” she said. The video has already racked up over 2 million views across Instagram and X (formerly Twitter) within 24 hours.
Reactions from VeryDarkMan’s followers have been overwhelmingly positive, with many calling on other influencers to also put an end to online hate and unnecessary rivalries. Some fans even suggested the two collaborate on future advocacy campaigns focused on youth empowerment and social change.
As the video continues to trend under hashtags like #BlessingCEOxVDM and #UnityForChange, it remains to be seen whether this peace gesture will spark similar reconciliations among other feuding Nigerian content creators. For now, social media is applauding what many are calling the most unexpected influencer apology of 2025.
