The incident, which unfolded on Instagram, has sparked reactions across online communities and among fans of both personalities.

VeryDarkMan calls out Mercy Chinwo after noticing that the gospel singer followed him on the platform.

He accused her of being manipulative and questioned her motives, referencing past controversies and what he described as “evil disguised as gospel”.

In a fiery video posted on his Instagram account, the activist wasted no time in addressing Mercy Chinwo directly.

“Mercy Chinwo, you can’t follow me. I will definitely block you. You can’t patronise me,” he said, fuming over what he believed was an attempt by the singer to align herself with him falsely.

He continued: “I don’t associate myself with evil. Especially evil disguising as gospel artists. Remove yourself from my followers or I go block you.”

This bold statement has since gone viral and sparked intense debates online about the boundaries between personal branding and social media interactions.

VeryDarkMan calls out Mercy Chinwo not just for following him but also for what he believes is a form of silent manipulation.

He alleged that gospel artistes often hide behind their religion to carry out questionable actions while maintaining a façade of righteousness.

“You see all these people wey dey form holy, na them dey do pass. I no want your kind around me,” he said in the video.

Mercy Chinwo has not responded to the accusations or the public warning at the time of filing this report.

Remove yourself from my followers or I go block you.

The gospel artiste, known for her hit song “Excess Love,” has generally maintained a clean image in the industry.

However, this is not the first time her name has been entangled in online controversy.

Earlier in the year, Mercy Chinwo had been embroiled in a royalty dispute with her former manager, which gained significant media attention.

VeryDarkMan had previously commented on the issue, suggesting that there was more to the story than what was presented to the public.

His recent outburst seems to be a continuation of that tension.

“People think say because person dey sing gospel, dem holy. But some of them dey very manipulative. I no dey carry fake vibes,” he added, explaining why he wants no association with the singer.

The statement “Remove yourself from my followers or I go block you,” has been widely quoted, sparking conversations on the nature of social media boundaries, especially among celebrities and public figures.

While some netizens agree with VeryDarkMan’s stance on being selective about who follows or engages with him, others believe the call-out was unnecessary and harsh.

One follower commented, “VDM always keeps it real, but this one no follow. Mercy Chinwo just followed him, and he went off.”

Another user wrote, “It’s his page, and he has the right to decide who he associates with. If he feels uncomfortable, that’s valid.”

As of now, Mercy Chinwo still follows VeryDarkMan on Instagram, and there has been no indication that she plans to unfollow him or address the matter publicly.

This latest episode adds to the growing list of public spats involving VeryDarkMan, who has built a reputation for his outspoken, sometimes confrontational, social commentary.

While some applaud his fearlessness, others caution that his approach may alienate potential allies or escalate harmless situations unnecessarily.
