Linus Williams Ifejika’s company, BLord Group has denied claims that online critic, Martins Vincent Otse aka VeryDarkman is behind the arrest of the bitcoin investor.
In a statement issued on Wednesday, July 17, the group said the viral report of VeryDarkman getting BLord arrested is false as he does not have the power to do so.
The management said the famous businessman was invited to the FCID cybercrime center in the Federal Capital Territory to assist the police in an ongoing investigation.
Few days ago, VeryDarkMan announced the arrest of the CEO of BLord group and said he was being detained at the Force Criminal Investigation Department (FCID) in Abuja.
The social media influencer claimed he was responsible for the business mogul’s arrest and had asked him improve his services due to complaints about people losing money on his platform.
However, the statement by BLord group stated; “In the light of the misleading news making the rounds, it has become pertinent for us to make the following clarifications;
Contrary to the unfounded claims that our C.E.O was arrested, we wish to clarify that our C.E.O was infact invited by the FCID N.P.F-NCCC/CyberCrime Centre to assist the Police in an ongoing investigation and as a law abiding citizen he honored the invitation on 16th July 2024. It is pertinent to highlight that the C.E.O of Blord Group has been treated well with his human rights untampered by the police and with strict compliance to basic stan- dard protocol.
Blord Group is a business built on the twin pillars of integrity and good ethical standards with a proven record of satisfactory service delivery.
Like most businesses, our business has had its fair share of challenges in the course of delivering optimum and premium service to its wide range of Clients.
Emphatically we wish to affirm that the invitation of the CEO is by no way sponsored or instigated by VERY DARK MAN as believed and postulated by Social Media as he has no ca- pacity to detain the CEO for a day because it is a national matter.
However, in the interest of justice, our C.E.O shall be cooperating with the authorities at this time and throughout the investigations.
We are confident that the CEO will be cleared of any wrong doings even as we crave the indulgence of the media houses and bloggers to carefully verify any information before putting same out to avoid misleading the public. We shall not be making any further statements on this issue at this time.”
