News ‘Sending BLord to prison is not victory’ – Sowore tells VeryDarkMan, lawyer Published on April 2, 2026 By Racheal Ayodele googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1500386953281-8'); }); Nigerian human rights activist, Omoyele Sowore, has stated that sending Blord to prison due to expertise of VeryDarkMan’s legal team is not victory. Sowore stated this hours after a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja remanded Blord in Kuje prison for 26 days. DAILY POST reports that Blord was remanded on Wednesday, April 1 2026, for impersonating VeryDarkMan, forgery, false endorsement, breach of privacy, identity theft, among other charges. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1524595905268-5'); }); However, reacting to the report, Sowore in a Facebook post, condemned the manner at which the case was handled. While accusing VeryDarkMan and his lawyer, Marshal D F Abubakar of oppressing Blord, Sowore said victory should come through the strength of the case and not by legal brilliance. He wrote, “have read about the court-ordered detention of an individual known as B-Lord, and I must say this clearly that no one should celebrate the incarceration of any person under the color of law. “I have reached out to my astute rights lawyer, Marshal D F Abubakar, urging him to disengage from the process. We must all agree that sending B-Lord to prison is not a victory for legal brilliance or advocacy. Rather, it risks emboldening a system of oppression that weaponizes the law against citizens. “Justice must never be reduced to punishment for its own sake. I will work to ensure this case is discontinued and B-Lord is released without further delay.” Don't Miss Easter: NSCDC deploys 365 personnel to secure worship centres in Zamfara You may like Court remands Blord in Kuje prison for impersonating VeryDarkMan [VIDEO] ‘Provide medical evidence’ – VeryDarkMan reacts to Blessing CEO’s cancer claim NBA condemns Sowore’s conduct in Abuja court ‘You cannot intimidate me’ — Sowore, SAN clash in court [VIDEO] ‘Nobody good for your eye’ – Tunde Ednut blasts Sowore over remarks on Gov Otti You an APC spy – Charly Boy blasts Sowore over Otti comments
