Ola of Lagos has responded to the ongoing controversy surrounding the demolition of his car lot, setting the record straight about the situation and addressing false information circulating online.
In an official statement, the popular car dealer clarified that he never claimed ownership of the Skywise Group property. Instead, he revealed that he had only leased a portion of the premises to operate his business.
Ola explained that the Lagos State Government’s demolition was due to safety regulation breaches, emphasizing that it was not a targeted action against him.
“I want to clear up the misunderstanding spreading on social media about the demolition of my car lot. I never said I owned the Skywise Group property; I simply rented a section for my business. The Lagos State Government took down the structure because certain safety standards were not met not because I was being singled out,” he said.
His clarification followed backlash from several individuals, including activist Deji Adeyanju, who accused him of trying to claim ownership of the property. Ola urged the public to confirm facts before sharing misinformation, stressing that the demolition was purely a regulatory issue, not a personal one.
In other news….. Nigerian activist and social media influencer Martins Vincent Otse, widely known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), has once again targeted crypto entrepreneur Linus Williams Ifejika, also known as Blord.
VDM accused Blord of operating a sophisticated online scam through his fintech company, Billpoint. Reports recall that Blord was arrested in 2024 over allegations of cryptocurrency fraud and funding terrorism. Although he was later released, public scrutiny of his brand has persisted.
In an Instagram video posted on October 16, 2025, VDM claimed that the Billpoint app, which advertises affordable airtime and data for users, is allegedly collecting sensitive personal information, including BVN, NIN, and phone numbers, which he says is being exploited for fraudulent activities and money laundering.
VDM further criticized numerous online celebrities who showcase wealth, suggesting that much of their affluence comes from dubious schemes rather than legitimate work. He remarked:
“You see why I speak to most of them however I like? I know what most of them do and how they maintain these appearances. It’s all showbiz. Don’t pressure yourself, most of them didn’t get here through hard work. You’d understand when you have access to information. This is why I always boast with integrity it frustrates them.”
