Billionaire’s Daughter Ihuoma Nneji Declared Wanted Over Fight With VeryDarkMan, Nigerians React

• The case between Nigerian online critic, VeryDarkMan and billionaire’s daughter, Ihuoma Nneji, has taken an interesting turn
• Ihuoma Nneji has been declared wanted by the police, with a bulletin released online to that effect
• This new development had social media users talking as they debated about her issues with VeryDarkMan and how it escalated into a legal matter

Nigerian socialite, Ihuoma Nneji, who is the daughter of billionaire businessman and ABC Transport founder, Frank Nneji, has been declared wanted by the police over her fight with VeryDarkMan.

On Wednesday, April 16, 2025, a bulletin was released to call on the public's help to locate Ihuoma Nneji. This came after she took legal action against VDM, whose real name is Martins Vincent Otse.

Recall that in September 2024, Legit.ng reported on how VDM called out Ihuoma and made a series of allegations against her, including trying to blackmail a young man. The online critic publicly warned the billionaire’s daughter to desist from her plan because he had a lot of evidence against her.

VDM’s callout led to Ihuoma Nneji taking legal action against the online critic by suing him in court. However, not much seems to have come from that.

The Nigeria Police Force National Cybercrime Centre (NPF-NCCC) declared Ihuoma wanted over alleged offences including criminal defamation, injurious falsehood, and cyberstalking.

According to the police bulletin, which was published online, the billionaire’s daughter was declared wanted by the authority of the Inspector General of Police. Details about Ihuoma were shared online, including her last known address in Victoria Garden City (VGC), Lagos.

She explained her side of the story, revealing that she had issues with Abuja businessman Henry Uzochukwu in August 2024 after she called off their planned November 2024 wedding.

She noted that she does not live in Nigeria, and the police did not invite her before declaring her wanted or sharing the news on social media.

Giving her reason for cancelling her proposed wedding to Uzochukwu, she said:

“This conflict between I and Henry Uzochukwu started in August 2024, when I called off the wedding… due to unresolved issues surrounding Henry’s sexuality. I found out incriminating information about Henry being gay and decided to back out of the marriage plans.”

The transport magnate's daughter stated further that Uzochukwu did not disclose his past failed engagements while accusing him of deceit.

“After I cancelled the wedding, he began to harass me, threaten my life and even went as far as claiming that I am behind a strange Instagram page spreading rumours about him, a claim that is unfounded, speculative and false.”
