In a dramatic twist to the ongoing controversy surrounding the viral photo of Nigerian actress Nkechi Blessing, a social media user known as Verydarkman has offered a staggering N500,000 reward for the person who took the controversial picture. His statement has ignited further debate and drawn even more attention to the situation, revealing layers of personal grievances and accusations.

Verydarkman’s post begins with a bold declaration: “I have N500,000 for the person that snapped Nkechi’s picture at the gym.” He goes on to reference a past incident where Nkechi allegedly insulted him, saying, “In 2023, she called me an animal and said that I lived in a rat house. Thank God I don’t live in a rat house anymore.” This comment highlights a personal vendetta, suggesting that the offer is not purely about the picture but rather a response to past conflicts between them.
He continues by criticizing Nkechi’s reaction to the photo, stating, “You were cursing the person that snapped the picture. Was it not you that posted the picture of a lady in 2023 and called her a walking infection? It is karma that is dealing with you.” This assertion points to a perceived hypocrisy in Nkechi’s outrage, as Verydarkman accuses her of previously shaming others online. He implies that her current situation is a consequence of her past actions, encapsulating the idea of “what goes around comes around.”
While he acknowledges that it is wrong to take someone’s picture with the intention of mocking them, he maintains that Nkechi is also facing her own karma. “To the person that snapped the picture, next time you can make a public video, but it is wrong to snap someone’s picture with the intention of mocking her. Still, it is Nkechi’s karma,” he states, attempting to balance his condemnation of the act with a justification for its occurrence.
Verydarkman doesn’t stop there; he further criticizes Nkechi’s online persona. He claims, “If you have been showing social media your real self, you will not be mad that someone took your picture. Nobody can take my picture and put it online. I always show my real self.” This comment suggests that he believes Nkechi presents a false image of herself online, enhanced by filters and social media editing. “You look like Beyoncé on social media with filter, but when the filter is gone, you look like you,” he quips, implying that the disparity between her online and offline appearances is significant.
Finally, he wraps up his message by encouraging the individual who took the photo to reach out to him directly for the reward, saying, “The person that snapped the picture should send me a DM for his 500k.” This call to action adds a layer of intrigue, potentially incentivizing further controversy and engagement from the public.
The entire exchange has sparked a flurry of reactions online, with many users weighing in on both Verydarkman’s comments and Nkechi’s situation. Some support Verydarkman’s stance, viewing it as a form of poetic justice, while others criticize him for perpetuating negativity and conflict.
As the drama unfolds, it raises important questions about accountability, the ethics of sharing images online, and the often tumultuous nature of social media interactions. The saga of Nkechi Blessing serves as a reminder of the complexities of internet culture, where personal grievances can quickly escalate into public spectacles.
