Media Personality Radiogad Slams Verydarkman for Allegedly Turning Mohbad’s Tragedy into Online Profit [VIDEO]

 

The tragic passing of Nigerian singer Mohbad has continued to ignite heated debates and emotional reactions across the country. While the public clamors for justice and clarity surrounding the artist's untimely demise, tensions have emerged among influencers and celebrities who have positioned themselves at the center of the conversation. One such clash has surfaced between popular media personality Radiogad and controversial activist and social commentator, Verydarkman.

Radiogad, known for his no-holds-barred approach to commentary, recently took to social media to sharply criticize Verydarkman. In a strongly worded video message, he accused the activist of using Mohbad’s death as a vehicle for personal gain and social media clout. According to Radiogad, instead of focusing on the singer’s legacy and supporting genuine efforts to seek justice, Verydarkman has allegedly made the case more about himself.

"You want to make this whole Mohbad situation about you," Radiogad said bluntly in his video. "You're online talking about how they planned to arrest you in the group chat. Who does that help? What’s the relevance of that information to Mohbad’s justice?"

Radiogad did not mince words as he criticized Verydarkman for allegedly dragging the names of others into the controversy without evidence or necessity. He expressed particular concern about Verydarkman’s insinuations involving Davido’s associate and questioned the motivation behind such claims. He challenged the activist to address Davido directly if he had genuine grievances instead of targeting individuals associated with the superstar.

The media personality also took issue with Verydarkman’s criticism of others who have been advocating for justice in the case, including actress Iyabo Ojo and music producer Samklef. Radiogad pointed out that these individuals have shown consistent support for the late Mohbad and that undermining their efforts only confuses and divides public opinion.

"Instead of standing with people who are actually fighting for justice, you’re tearing them down," he added. "You’re turning this entire case into a personal vendetta, feeding your audience with misleading narratives."

In a particularly scathing part of his statement, Radiogad accused Verydarkman of manipulating his followers and profiting from the ongoing attention surrounding Mohbad’s death. "You’re gaslighting your followers. The ones who still believe everything you say without questioning your motives," he stated. "This boy don kpai, and you're here turning his tragedy into an opportunity to gain followers and generate revenue on social media."

The comments have sparked renewed conversations online about the ethical boundaries of social media activism and public mourning. Many Nigerians have taken sides, with some defending Verydarkman’s outspoken style while others echo Radiogad’s concerns about the exploitation of grief for digital influence.

Observers argue that the real issue is getting lost in the noise. The late Mohbad, born Ilerioluwa Aloba, was a rising star in Nigeria’s music scene whose death raised significant concerns about industry practices and personal safety for young artists. Instead of focusing solely on the unresolved questions around his death, some believe that too much attention has shifted toward online feuds and power struggles among influencers.

Social media platforms have become a major stage for public opinion, especially in high-profile cases like Mohbad’s. While digital activism has played a vital role in spotlighting injustices, it has also exposed the darker side of influence culture. Accusations like those made by Radiogad shine a light on the fine line between advocacy and opportunism.

Verydarkman, known for his controversial takes and confrontational style, has yet to issue a formal response to Radiogad’s video. Whether he chooses to address the accusations or ignore them altogether remains to be seen. However, the public’s focus appears divided, with many calling for restraint and a return to the original demand: justice for Mohbad.

As the debate rages on, what remains clear is that Mohbad’s legacy has sparked deep emotional reactions across the country. Nigerians from all walks of life continue to demand answers, hoping that the memory of the young artist is honored with truth and dignity rather than controversy and clout-chasing.
