On Easter Sunday, Nigerian indigenous rap powerhouse Phyno, in his highly anticipated homecoming concert, turned the event into a platform for reconciliation and legal advocacy after making a public plea for the release of embattled crypto tycoon Blord.
eelive.ng understands that the indigenous rapper made the appeal during ‘The Phyno Experience’, held at the International Conference Centre in Enugu.
Phyno specifically called upon social critic VeryDarkMan to withdraw his petition against Blord, whose real name is Linus Williams. The tech entrepreneur is currently remanded in custody on fraud-related charges until 27 April.
The legal battle stems from allegations of a suspected Ponzi scheme operated through platforms like Ratel, and is further complicated by a series of mutual defamation lawsuits between the parties.
The event, which was offered as a free show to his kinsmen, was more than just a legal appeal; it was a vibrant celebration of culture and family. In a touching moment that captured the audience’s hearts, Phyno’s young daughter made a surprise appearance, joining rising star Qing Madi on stage.
The night also featured amazing performances and collaborations with industry heavyweights such as Olamide and Jeriq, cementing the event’s status as a landmark cultural moment for the South-East.
