VeryDarkMan (VDM) faces what many now describe as a deafening silence defeat from businessman Obi Cubana.
Observers say Cubana’s calm and calculated silence completely humbled VDM, a strategy many believe is more powerful than any online clapback.
Meanwhile, Blord, another entrepreneur who recently clashed with VDM, turned the attack into a massive business win.
Social commentators have compared how both businessmen handled the controversial criticism. While Obi Cubana ignored VDM entirely, refusing to dignify his words with a single response, Blord decided to flip the script. He used VDM’s attack to grow his visibility deactivating his main Instagram account, redirecting fans to new pages, and gaining thousands of new followers in days.
Analysts now say that Blord’s move was both bold and strategic. By using controversy as free publicity, he turned mud into gold or, as one netizen put it, VDM threw him in the mud, but Blord moulded his image with it. Obi Cubana, on the other hand, has mastered the art of silence, showing that sometimes, power speaks loudest when it says nothing.
💬 Obi Cubana is playing chess while others are playing checkers. That silence was louder than words.
💬 VDM’s power seems to be fading. Blord really turned the tables
💬 I respect how Blord handled it. He used negativity to grow his brand. Smart move.
💬 Tonto Dikeh also learned her lesson, silence kills trolls faster than reply.
💬 Now everyone wants to be called out by VDM just to trend. That’s the irony
