Business mogul and entrepreneur Linus Williams Ifejirika, popularly known as Blord, has declared support for the revolutionary movement following his release from Kuje Prison, turning a personal ordeal into a public political statement.
Speaking after regaining freedom, Blord praised activist and African Action Congress (AAC)presidential candidate Omoyele Sowore for intervening during what he described as a period of intimidation and uncertainty surrounding his detention by VeryDarkMan.
“I have never met Omoyele Sowore in my life, but when he heard that I was being intimidated and Oppress, he stepped in. That’s leadership. That’s courage,” Blord said, while wearing the Revolution Now cap in what supporters described as a gesture of solidarity and appreciation.
His remarks have drawn attention among activists and political observers, with many viewing the development as a symbolic boost for the movement and a broader statement on resistance, justice and civic solidarity.
Blord’s public alignment with the revolutionary movement marks a notable political moment for the entrepreneur, whose influence has largely been rooted in business and digital innovation. Supporters say his endorsement signals growing momentum for citizen-led activism and underscores the role of solidarity in confronting repression.
“This is what solidarity looks like. This is what standing for justice means,” supporters of the movement said in reaction to the development, describing Blord’s declaration as the emergence of “another voice in the struggle.”
The development comes after days of uncertainty over Blord’s detention, with his release and subsequent statement now reshaping the narrative from legal controversy to political awakening.
For observers, Blord’s declaration may represent more than a personal expression of gratitude,it may mark the beginning of a new alliance between civic activism and influential voices beyond traditional political circles.
