Nigerian media personality King Mitchy has publicly criticized social commentator VeryDarkMan over a dismissive comment he made on her recent video addressing Nigeria’s worsening security crisis. The video, which called for immediate action from President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, sparked a heated online exchange after VeryDarkMan responded with the word “crack” in the comment section. King Mitchy reacted strongly, accusing him of trivializing a serious national issue and questioning his credibility. She emphasized that her message was directed specifically at the president and not meant to be a general social media rant.
The controversy erupted after King Mitchy shared a video highlighting the country’s escalating insecurity, including kidnappings, banditry, and attacks on communities across various states. She urged President Tinubu to take decisive steps to restore peace and protect citizens. Her call for action resonated with many Nigerians who have grown increasingly frustrated with the government’s response to security challenges. The video quickly gained traction on social media, drawing both support and criticism.
VeryDarkMan’s brief comment, “crack,” was perceived by King Mitchy as an attempt to mock or downplay her serious appeal. In her response, she expressed disappointment and frustration, stating that she had a direct line to the president’s son, Seyi Tinubu. She revealed that she had called him four days prior and that he answered her call, suggesting she maintains a level of access to the presidential family. This claim added weight to her argument that her message was not just public opinion, but a direct appeal to power.
King Mitchy’s fiery rebuttal included the now-viral line: “Bro I have the number of the president’s son. I call him, he pick my call. Four days ago I still called him. He can pick up my call if he wants to buy. I wanted it to be public. Na you be Mr lollipop…” The statement, shared widely on social media, underscored her frustration with what she sees as the apathy of some public figures toward national security. Her use of the term “Mr lollipop” was a pointed jab at VeryDarkMan, implying he is more concerned with trivial matters than urgent national issues.
The exchange has reignited conversations about the role of social media influencers and commentators in addressing Nigeria’s security challenges. Many Nigerians have weighed in, with some supporting King Mitchy’s direct approach and others questioning the validity of her claims about her access to the presidential family. Regardless, the incident highlights the growing public demand for accountability and swift action from government leaders.
As Nigeria continues to grapple with insecurity, voices like King Mitchy’s are gaining prominence in the national discourse. The incident serves as a reminder that citizens are no longer willing to accept inaction, and public figures are under increasing pressure to respond meaningfully to national crises.
