In a Facebook video shared on April 4, Livinus Nwosu showed the moment the billboard poster was removed.

"The billboard is gone. Omo! See the billboard o. The billboard don go. See the billboard o, them don remove am. The billboard has gone down o," Livinus, a Ratel Movement member could be heard exclaiming in the background of the video.

"...Unizik Junction, which was short for Nnamdi Azikiwe University Junction, has been left with even more shock as they too never believed that a certain Billionaire will hurriedly yank off the Billboard for whatever reason.
"This Billboard had a facelift less than 2weeks ago, so it wasn’t expired.
"This is coming shortly after a rift, of what the general populace termed “P00r man pikin don send Billionaire to Prison”.
"What next is scheduled to be removed? The Ratel Abi Ratels app?"

Barrister shares legal steps for Blord

When quizzed about the next steps Blord could take while in remand and how long the process could realistically take, the founder of Pure Legal Solicitors, Barrister Chidera Divine Ebimnamaonye, told Legit.ng:

"He should apply for bail at the court through his lawyer to enable him to leave the correctional centre.
"It can take between a month, or more."

On Wednesday, VeryDarkMan made a video informing the public that a Federal High Court in Abuja ordered the remand of Blord at the Kuje Correctional Centre.

The ruling came after his arraignment on charges of criminal conspiracy, impersonation, and unauthorised use of the identity belonging to VeryDarkMan. Out of respect for VeryDarkMan, Ositadinma stated that he would refrain from sharing details with the public that VeryDarkMan didn't give in his earlier video confirming Blord's incarceration ruling.
