DRAMA ALERT: VDM vs King Mitchy vs Seyi Tinubu — The Full Story You Need To Know!

Nigerian social media is on FIRE right now and if you haven’t been following the drama between VeryDarkMan (VDM), influencer King Mitchy, and President Tinubu’s son Seyi Tinubu — don’t worry, we’ve got you covered from the very beginning!
How It All Started 👇
It began when social media influencer Mukoro Michelle, popularly known as King Mitchy, called out VDM over his comments regarding her school renovation projects. Mitchy had been publicly praised for renovating schools and proudly credited Seyi Tinubu for funding the initiative — even revealing that she received a jaw-dropping N100 million from the president’s son to support her charity work.
Now, most people would have left it there. But this is VDM we’re talking about.
VDM Fires Back — And Goes for Seyi Too!
VDM wasted no time calling Mitchy out, saying: “Seyi Tinubu that has the ears of his father gave you money to renovate a school and you think you are special? You are a political tool.” He further argued that if Mitchy truly had access to Seyi Tinubu, she could push for broader government intervention rather than isolated renovations — and then dropped the bombshell: “They didn’t give you this money in 2023 or 2024. They are giving you in 2026 when campaign for 2027 is close.”
In other words — VDM is saying the whole school renovation thing is a 2027 political setup. Ouch.
He also questioned what Seyi Tinubu does for a living, alleging that the money sent to King Mitchy belongs to Nigerian taxpayers. He pointed out that doctors have gone on strike over poor pay, teachers have protested, and some police officers struggle to survive — yet the president’s son is allegedly splashing N100 million on an influencer. VDM bluntly told Seyi: “Tell your papa to fix Nigeria.”

King Mitchy Claps Back — And Leaks Chats! 📱
Mitchy was NOT about to take it lying down. She countered VDM’s narrative by releasing screenshots of an alleged private chat with Seyi Tinubu, where he supposedly reassured her amid the drama. She also accused VDM’s fans — the Ratels — of mass-reporting her Instagram business page until it was taken down. Her page? Gone. Just like that.
But VDM didn’t stop there. He escalated things by making one of the most controversial allegations in this saga — claiming that Mitchy had been “licking lollipop” with Seyi Tinubu. Yes, he went there. Mitchy addressed the allegation publicly but did not confirm it, while warning that she could also pay people to bring down pages.
Seyi Tinubu’s Response? A Song. 🎵
With all eyes on him, Seyi Tinubu returned to social media on the evening of Thursday, February 26, 2026, and reshared a clip from “Turbulence” — a song by Wizkid and Asake — appearing to address the criticisms indirectly while keeping a low-key and composed stance. No words. Just vibes. The message? I see you all, and I don’t care.
Nigerians, of course, had a field day with that response.
The Bigger Picture 🇳🇬
Beyond the personal drama, VDM is essentially making a political point — that Nigeria’s government should be fixing hospitals, schools, and infrastructure at a systemic level rather than using influencers as political pawns ahead of 2027 elections. And a lot of Nigerians are agreeing with him.
Whether you’re Team VDM or Team Mitchy — one thing is undeniable: Seyi Tinubu’s name is now firmly in the middle of a social media storm that shows absolutely no signs of slowing down.
Stay tuned — this drama is far from over. Drop your thoughts in the comments!
